Military Sex abuse case brings airman to San Antonio court

SAN ANTONIO — An award-winning Air Force photographer charged with raping a woman at a lake and sexually abusing a pair of high school ROTC students in another incident last year appeared at a rare arraignment hearing Monday, but didn't make a plea.

Airman 1st Class Nathan G. Wilson-Crow, 22, of North Texas, rose along with his military lawyers to face his judge, who convened the hearing via teleconference at Barksdale AFB, in Louisiana.

One of two defense attorneys, Capt. Joni Holder, asked for a closed-door hearing and Col. Donald Eller Jr., a veteran judge, cleared the conference room at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland. While arraignment hearings are typical in the Army, an attorney with the service explained, they are relatively rare in the Air Force.

Wilson Crow is accused of exposing himself and fondled a female O'Connor High School student in April at Camp Eagle near Rocksprings, about 100 miles northwest of San Antonio. That incident occurred last spring.
