A defendant entered guilty pleas in a series of sexual assaults at the Chinatown-Gallery Place metro station.

Morgan Olah pleaded guilty to second-degree child sex abuse, two counts of misdemeanor sex abuse and one count of misdemeanor sex abuse of a child or minor during the Dec. 14 hearing.

In July 2020, the 25-year-old made explicit comments towards three girls ages 13, 14 and 16. In response, the girls told him they were 12-years-old and 13-years-old. Olah then groped all of the victims. He went on to sexually assault a fourth adult victim, according to the proffer of facts. 

Before taking the plea deal, Olah was charged with three counts of second-degree child sex abuse. He will have to register as a sex offender for the remainder of his life as a result of his conviction. 

Judge Juliet McKenna scheduled Olah to be sentenced on Feb. 23.
