Investigators Found Child Pornography On Computer

He Allegedly Admitted To Having Sex With Minors
FT. LAUDERDALE (CBS4) ― A popular South Florida swim coach arrested last week for allegedly having child pornography on his computer faced a federal judge Monday morning.

Roberto Caragol, 35, agreed to no bond during a hearing in Miami. He will be arraigned on December 4.

Prosecutors say the former assistant swim coach at Pine Crest School in Fort Lauderdale was caught e-mailing child porn. He also allegedly admitted to having sex with minors dating back to 2001.

Caragol was fired from Pine Crest School, and dismissed from his position as Chairman of the Florida Gold Coast, the governing body for all local swim clubs. He was hired at the school in 2006 and also coached boys swimming at Cypress Bay High in Weston.

Federal investigators did not allege Caragol abused any children he came in contact with through his position as assistant swim coach at Pine Crest.
