Sentencing For Former Temescal Canyon High Coach Rescheduled

Sentencing for a former Temescal Canyon High School coach who had sex with an underage girl has been rescheduled to June 19.

Faysal Jihad Hill pleaded guilty in April to a single count of unlawful sex with a minor more than three years younger, according to court documents. Hill is facing six months of local jail time and probation. He was scheduled for sentencing earlier this week.

As part of the plea agreement, Riverside County Superior Court Judge Becky Dugan dismissed four remaining counts of unlawful sex with a minor and five counts of indecent exposure against Hill.

The defendant remains free on bond for $50,000 bail and has been ordered to appear for sentencing in Riverside.

The investigation in the case against Hill began when a school resource officer at Temescal Canyon High School was informed that a male teacher later identified as the former coach was having an inappropriate relationship with a student, according to a report from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.
