Former relief pitcher John Wetteland<\/a> had child sexual assault charges against him dropped last week.<\/p>\n

The 1996 World Series MVP as a member of the New York Yankees <\/a>had the charges dismissed after a split decision jury in August led to a mistrial in the case.<\/p>\n

Wetteland, 56 was charged with three counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child, and he pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n

The Denton County District Attorney\u2019s Office<\/a> said Monday it is not planning to file new charges in the case, according to WFAA in Dallas.<\/p>\n

Wetteland was arrested in 2019 and was accused of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old from 2004 to 2006 at his home. The case was declared a mistrial in September.<\/p>\n

The three-time All-Star faced 25 years to life had he been convicted.<\/p>\n

Wetteland pitched 12 seasons in the majors with the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a>, Montreal Expos, Yankees and Texas Rangers. He was named to the Rangers’ Hall of Fame in 2005.<\/p>\n

He also spent time as the bullpen coach for both the Washington Nationals,<\/a> formerly Wetteland’s Expos, and the Seattle Mariners.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
