Jason Roberson, a youth pastor accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a teenage church member over several years, pleaded not guilty and is set for trial this summer.
Roberson, 35, entered a plea of not guilty to sexual assault on a child by a person in a position of trust and invasion of privacy at his arraignment in Boulder District Court today. He is set to stand trial beginning July 14.
According to police reports, Danielle DesGeorges, 24, went to police in April and told investigators that she and Roberson had an inappropriate relationship that began when she was 15 and continued for seven years.
In an interview with police, officers reported, Roberson admitted to touching the victim inappropriately but said it only occurred after she began attending classes at the University of Colorado.
