Nicholas Piazza was in court for a status hearing, allowing his lawyer and the prosecutor to set dates on his future court proceedings.
SAN DIEGO — Nicholas Piazza, the North County-based swim instructor accused of sexually abusing a student, appeared in court Wednesday. The judge has asked the media not to show his face.
According to court documents, he was arrested in Oct. 2021 on a felony charge of committing a lewd act upon a child. The child was a 6 year old at the time and reportedly told his mother that “a substitute swimming instructor touched his private parts.” Authorities say the two alleged incidents with this child didn’t happen at Callan Swim School, but during private swim lessons between Sept. 7 and Sept. 25, 2022, in Rancho Santa Fe. He was arrested and booked into the Vista Detention Facility in connection to that case on Sept. 29.
“When you have one victim, the thought for anyone is 'Is that child lying? Are they trying to gain something?' Maybe the family is setting something up," she says."It’s hard to prove a case when you only have a child’s word to probe a case beyond a reasonable doubt. But, now you have two children."
