NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Matthew Scoggin, known for playing the piano at debutante balls and other high society events in New Orleans, was convicted of sexually abusing his 9-year-old niece.
The Times-Picayune reported a jury in state court returned a guilty verdict Thursday on a charge of indecent behavior with a juvenile under the age of 13, which carries a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison.
Scoggin, 51, was led away in handcuffs before dozens of family members who attended the two-day trial.
His niece and a 19-year-old woman testified Scoggin had inappropriately touched them, the older woman when she as 8 or 9 years old.
