MASON CO. -- The judge has dropped the case against the former Mason County Central soccer coach.

According to the Mason County Prosecutor, the woman who Todd Johnson was accused of sexually assaulting testified that her comment to police was a lie.

The investigation initially indicated the Johnson had a sexual relationship with the girl starting when she was 13 years old. While testifying in court, the girl said she felt pressured into saying that.

The judge dismissed the case based on a lack of indication that he had committed a sexual crime based on the testimony.
