Conviction Upheld

The New Hampshire Supreme Court has upheld the rape conviction of a tae kwon do instructor accused of raping a teen student. The 55-year-old Newmarket man argued that the judge should not have presided over his case because she was present at previous hearings.

The man is serving up to 35 years in prison after being convicted on ten rape charges and two counts of child pornography. He ran a program for at-risk students at Newmarket Junior/Senior High School and the town's recreation center.
