A former teacher’s assistant at St. Joseph Catholic School in Muskogee, 19-year-old Jonathan Wiedel, pleaded guilty to 12 counts of aggravated sexual abuse of a minor in Indian Country.
The superseding indictment alleged that Wiedel sexually abuse four children under the age of 12 when he was employed at the Catholic school.
The crimes happened in Muskogee County within the boundaries of Muscogee (Creek) Nation Reservation.
The charges arose from an investigation by the FBI and the Muskogee County Sheriff’s Office.
Wiedel will remain in the custody of the United States Marshal Service until his sentencing.
