The juvenile alleged that Friedow then placed his hand under the teen s clothing and touched his genitalia. According to documents, Friedow admitted to touching the victim s upper thigh and leg, but only to awaken him. Several foreign exchange students have been listed as state witnesses in the case, according to court documents. It is known that two exchange students were living with Friedow in September, according to a Summit story about Friedow and his work with students.
It is not clear where the students are living since the charges were filed. Friedow has worked for the Educational Foundation for Foreign Study program for 25 years. Matt Smith, the president of operations for the organization, said on Friday that Friedow has not been affiliated with the program for about a month. Friedow also faces a charge of supplying alcohol to a person under 21 years of age, a serious misdemeanor and punishable by up to one year in jail.
Two other charges, providing a minor with tobacco and for permitting an unauthorized person to drive, were also filed against him. Friedow could not be reached for comment. In the story that appeared in the Summit earlier this fall, Friedow said he had more than 30 exchange students in his home over the years. He is a part-time Spanish instructor at Waldorf, confirmed Marie Oleson, director of college relations.
Waldorf administrators said they were unaware of the charges when contacted last Friday.
