A former midshipman was sentenced to 90 days in prison Monday for molesting a 2-year-old girl, the second child abuse case this year involving a Naval Academy student.
In the wake of those and other scandals, the school announced a new independent review board Monday to review its operations.
Jeremy Coale, who pleaded guilty in August to molestation, was sentenced Monday to four years in prison, with all but 90 days suspended. He was also given five years' probation and ordered to undergo counseling.
