Adam Woolf

By Philip Sean Curran, Staff Writer
A convicted sex offender pleaded guilty to child endangerment after he targeted a group of children at a swimming pool at Mercer County Community College’s West Windsor campus in February., Adam L. Woolf, 23, of Skillman, took a plea deal March 28 to resolve allegations stemming from when he had posed as a maintenance man at Mercer County Community College, where he was taking classes, on Feb.7. He was accused of telling five 12-year-old children — three boys and two girls who were there for their swim club — that the chlorine level in the pool at the college’s physical education building would damage their bathing suits, the Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office said., Authorities claimed that he directed the boys to the locker room, followed them, and showered in front of them, although the Prosecutor’s Office said Monday that he might have showered in front of only one of the three youths. Authorities also had alleged that he encouraged the children to shower as well., The Prosecutor’s Office said he had followed the girls into their locker room and “attempted similar activity.” New Jersey State Police, in their data base for sex offenders, indicate that Woolf is a tier 3 high risk offender., On March 28, he pleaded guilty to three counts of endangering the welfare of a child, in the third degree. He is due to get probation at his sentencing April 21, in Mercer County Superior Court, but then go into inpatient counseling for sex offenders, the Prosecutor’s Office said Monday., “Suffice it to say, this has been a difficult and complex case. Adam is a challenged and challenging client because of his cognitive limitations,” defense attorney Jack Furlong said Monday. He did not elaborate on what those limitations are., Woolf, originally charged with luring, lewdness and endangering the welfare of a child, was “very cooperative” with law enforcement, the Prosecutor’s Office said of a case that resolved itself in little more than a month., “In the grand scheme of things,” Furlong said, “a swift resolution seemed appropriate for all concerned.”, Woolf is originally from Great Britain, living in the United States on a green card. It was not immediately clear what implications his guilty plea will have on his future immigration status., Woolf withdrew from the college after the incident.
