Former high school athletics coach Brian Kitzman pleads guilty to nearly two dozen counts he secretly recorded students in a Janesville high school girls locker room.
On Wednesday, Rock County Judge Ashley Morse accepted Kitzman’s guilty plea. He entered it on the condition the court toss out at least a dozen additional counts of similar charges prosecutors might have brought in the case.
Kitzman’s plea is for six counts of capturing intimate images of a minor, 12 counts of possessing intimate images of a minor, and a count of invasion of privacy using a surveillance device.
Kitzman had been accused in May of hiding a go-pro camera in lockers in a girls locker room at Janesville Craig High School, and filming at least 18 different students over a two-year span.
At the time, he was a cross country and track and field coach at Craig.
Kitzman’s attorney asked for extra time before sentencing given the volume of similar counts a judge would consider.
His sentencing is slated May 22.
