Convict Coach Accused Of Tweeting At Victim From Behind Bars

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) - A former tennis coach in prison for sex with a teenager is now accused of asking fellow inmates for help contacting his victim.

Daniel Wilson is serving a year in the work house for sexually assaulting the girl he coached at Visitation High School.

Before being sentenced, he was caught three times trying to contact her. A hearing Thursday will determine if Wilson is at it again.

He's now accused of paying fellow inmates for their access to jail phones.
