Alaska’s former acting attorney general was indicted Monday on three felony charges of sexual abuse of a minor. Reports surfaced early last year that he had sex with a 17-year-old girl he coached on an Anchorage high school mock trial team during 1991.
as the accusations were about to become public. The charges in the indictment mirror those filed by Special Prosecutor Gregg Olson in May.
Nikki Dougherty White said she came forward with the allegations after learning that Sniffen had been appointed as the state’s top prosecutor. She said Sniffen first had sex with her during a West Anchorage High School mock trial team trip to New Orleans when she was 17. Sniffen, who was 27 at the time, continued their sexual relationship after returning to Anchorage, she told reporters.
Sniffen’s attorney, Jeffrey Robinson, moved to have the case dismissed last month because he said the lengthy delay between the event in question to when the charges were filed violate Sniffen’s right to due process.
