Former Peninsula High School coach Barry Sacks, 49, pleaded not guilty today to nine counts of child molestation at his arraignment at the Torrance courthouse. Judge Hector Guzman scheduled the next hearing for Sept. 17. Sacks remains free on $150,000 bail. He is accused of inappropriately touching nine girls ages 15 and 16 years old.

That's his attorney, Larry Donoghue on the right. The whole proceeding -- not including a hearing on whether we could take a photo -- lasted about a minute.
