CAPE MAY, N.J. — Officials say a company commander at the Coast Guard Training Center in Cape May is accused of sexually assaulting a recruit.
Petty Officer 1st Class Wilson Medina has been reassigned to new duties at the Coast Guard’s only boot camp. The 36-year-old is charged with forcible sodomy and abusive sexual contact.
Officials say the allegation stems from an incident in Medina’s Coast Guard housing unit in November.
Medina and the recruit were off duty.
Authorities said they launched an investigation after the recruit reported the incident in December.
The recruit’s gender and name have not been released.
