A former chief district attorney in Larimer County has pleaded guilty to sexual assault after a former intern came forward to police. Dan Quinn, who served in the Larimer County District Attorney’s Office in the late 1990s, was charged with having sexual relations with a county intern years before she turned 18.
As part of a plea agreement to avoid jail time, Quinn pleaded guilty Friday afternoon to one charge of sexual assault in the third degree, a misdemeanor. Before the plea agreement was reached, Quinn was being charged with sexual assault of a child by a person in a position of trust.
Before a judge, Friday, Quinn and his attorney went out of their way to notify the court they were admitting guilt to the charge of sexual assault but not to the details of all the crimes he was accused of in the arrest affidavit.
