Abstract

One of White's former teammates said White confided in her about the sexual encounter with Sniffen while the team was still in New Orleans. Acting Alaska Attorney General Ed Sniffen's abrupt resignation was announced Friday as the Anchorage Daily News and ProPublica were preparing an article about allegations of sexual misconduct with a 17-year-old girl three decades ago. In addition to helping coach the mock trial team at West Anchorage High School, Sniffen also volunteered for the nonprofit Anchorage Youth Court, said White, who said she dated Sniffen for about two years from 1991 to 1993. One teammate, who asked not to be named for fear of retribution given Sniffen's prominent position, said White confided in her after White and Sniffen first had sex at the hotel.
