Upon his eventual release he must wear a lifetime tether, comply with sex offender registry requirements, STD testing and no contact with the victim.
The Livonia man had been a teacher at Northville High School and soccer coach. Officials with the district don't believe any students were assaulted while Dean taught there.
The girl, who is now an adult, was a previous student of Dean's 8th-grade class. Dean was arrested on Jan. 27, 2020 following a filed complaint which the Oakland County Sheriff said it corroborated the claims.
The former female student told police the sexual assaults occurred on school grounds, at after-school events, and other locations including a Rivers Edge apartment in Waterford he kept for having sex - apart from his home he shared with his family.
He was said to have sexually assaulted the girl 30 times between July and November in 2010.
