Denise Fitch

Denise Fitch, 41-year-old counselor at Keyser Primary-Middle School, Keyser, West Virginia, has pleaded guilty to three counts of third-degree sexual assault charges. She was accused of having sexual relations with three high school boys.


Fitch was arrested last february on allegations of the sexual assault of three boys, all under 16-years-old. At the time was alleged that Fitch had had sexual intercourse with two of the boys and performed oral sex on two of the three boys. According to court record, two of the boys were 14 years old and one was 15 at the time of the alleged incidents.

Fitch came to the attention of police after she checked herself into the emergency room of Western Maryland Health Systems on June 24, 2010 with emotional issues and allegedly confessed to a counselor that she had engaged in vaginal sexual intercourse with two of the three males and also provided oral sex to two of the three males.

The incidents took place at Fitch’s residence after the boys had gone there to swim. Allegedly, Fitch also confessed to her ex-husband that she had engaged in sexual acts with the three boys.

On Jan. 21 and Feb. 21, a representative of the DHHR interviewed all three of the alleged victims and all three said they had gone to the Fitch home to swim when the alleged incidents occurred.
The juveniles stated that two of them had gone into the home with Fitch while the third stayed outside to swim. When the third male came into the home, the other two “told him they had sexual intercourse with the defendant....
“(He) stated that he and Denise went into a bedroom, where Denise performed oral sex on him.”

Fitch was originally charged with five counts of third-degree sexual assault; six counts of sexual abuse by a guardian, custodian or person in a position of trust; and one count of sexual abuse. As part of the plea agreement, Fitch only pleaded guilty to the three counts of third-degree sexual assault and rest were dropped.
