Share

A former high school coach and Major League Baseball outfielder was sentenced to nine years in prison for child sexual abuse charges on Friday.

Dustan Mohr, 47, was originally charged with child solicitation, child seduction, sexual misconduct with a minor and dissemination of matter harmful to minors in August 2023.

In March 2024, he pleaded guilty to child solicitation, child seduction and sexual misconduct with a minor in exchange for the dissemination charge being dropped.

Allen Superior Court Judge Fran Gull sentenced him to five years on each count with two years suspended, meaning his executed sentence is nine years. The charges carry a potential sentence of up to 18 years.

Mohr’s 14-year-old victim gave police evidence of sexually explicit text messages and photos she received from Mohr, according to a probable cause affidavit written by Allen County Sheriff’s Office Detective Nicholas Keefer.

She also told police Mohr inappropriately touched her.

He was an outfielder for the Minnesota Twins from 2001 until 2003.

He then played for the San Francisco Giants in 2004, Colorado Rockies in 2005, Boston Red Sox in 2006 and Tampa Bay Devil Rays in 2007.

He served as Northrop High School’s assistant baseball coach until about 2021.
