The San Diego County Sheriffโs Office announced Thursday that 19-year-old Nicholas Piazza was arrested last week and booked into Vista Detention Facility on charges that included performing lewd acts with a child under 14, committing felony while on bail and contempt of court.
Piazza was arrested Sept. 29, after a boy’s mother reached out to Child Welfare Services the day before, according to a news release issued by the sheriff’s department. She said her 7-year-old son told her that his swim instructor, Piazza, had sexually assaulted him on two separate occasions during private swim lessons, which took place between Sept. 7-25 in Rancho Santa Fe.
Piazza was employed as an independent swim instructor at the time of his arrest, according to Sgt. Howard Kluge of the San Diego Sheriffโs Office.
