The fire occurred on July 26, 2014, when the then 15-year-old R.C. and a friend started a fire at Willow Crest playground. R.C., however, returned to the school and set a second fire. Both later confessed to third-degree criminal mischief and second-degree criminally negligent burning.

The courts adjudicated them as minors. Damage for the first fire reached slightly more than $108,000; the second fire caused nearly $51,000 damage.

The Department of Law had no comment on the decision.

He believes deep connection is the cure for troubled teens, but it’s easier said than done. He wants them to know that there are people that care and people that understand the issues they are going through.

Pollard was in Anchorage for Thanksgiving, but says he will be back in Alaska in February to speak with area schools and hopefully return to rural Alaska.

He said also has a project working with the actors in Marvel’s “Avengers” movie series that will come to fruition sometime next year.

Anchorage Police Department: Phillip Bigham convicted in sexual abuse of a minor investigation
“Every child deserves to be protected from sexual abuse and sexual exploitation,” said Assistant District Attorney James Klugman, who prosecuted the case. “Anyone who would prey on the innocent and vulnerable needs to understand: we do not and will not tolerate these heinous crimes. You will be caught, you will be prosecuted, and you will be held accountable.” Klugman thanked the Anchorage Police Department’s Special Victims Unit for their assistance investigating the case.

Superior Court Judge Jack Smith, who presided over the trial, scheduled Bigham’s sentencing for March 14, 2019. He faces a presumptive sentence of fifty to sixty years imprisonment. Bigham, who was on electronic monitoring release during the trial, was remanded into custody following the verdict. Judge Smith ordered him to be held without bail pending sentencing.
