ANCHORAGE \u2014 An Alaska performer has been charged with sexual abuse of a minor.<\/p>\n

KTUU reports (https:\/\/is.gd\/DJDCaa) 43-year-old Jack J. Dalton entered a not guilty plea Wednesday in an Anchorage courtroom.<\/p>\n

Police allege he had sex with a 14-year-old minor he met on Craigslist. Undercover police later posed as the teen in online communications, and arrested Dalton last month when the officer arranged for a second encounter.<\/p>\n

Dalton was appointed a public defender, who declined comment in an email to The Associated Press because it\u2019s an open case.<\/p>\n

Dalton was associated with Raven\u2019s Radio Hour, which is described on its Facebook page as theatrical performances that showcase Alaska Native culture in a lighthearted way.<\/p>\n

He was recently an actor in \u201cOur Voices Will Be Heard,\u201d a play about how two Tlingit women overcome trauma, including childhood sexual abuse. It debuted at Perseverance Theater on Douglas Island in January.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
