Soccer coach's preliminary hearing set for Wednesday

Advertiser Staff

The former youth soccer coach accused of sexually assaulting six boys appeared before a Honolulu district court judge today and had his preliminary hearing scheduled for 1:30 p.m., Wednesday.

Frederick N. Rames, 60, is being held in lieu of $1 million bail in a secure module at the O'ahu Community Correctional Center. Rames' attorney, William Harrison, said today that his client maintains his innocence, but his request to have Rames' bail reduced was denied.

The City Prosecutor's office and Honolulu police declined comment on the case.
