More charges for swim coach Dick Caine

He has since been charged with various offences, including carnal knowledge of a girl aged between 10 and 17, and assaulting a female and committing an act of indecency on a person aged between 14 and 16.

Caine appeared at Downing Centre Local Court on Thursday and was charged with an additional four counts of assaulting a female and committing an act of indecency, as well as two counts of sexual assault.

The new charges relate to alleged sexual offences committed in the early 1980s against a girl – who was aged between 13 and 15 years – while she was under his authority as a swimming coach.

Caine remains before the courts and has now been charged with 27 offences.

Investigations under Strike Force Coco are ongoing.
