Cimmino, who works for the Boston Housing Authority, was also a religious education teacher at St. Thomas More Roman Catholic Church.
DEDHAM – A former Cub Scout leader and religious education instructor from Braintree has pleaded not guilty to sexually assaulting two young boys.
Michael Cimmino entered his plea Wednesday in Norfolk Superior Court to charges including indecent assault and battery on a child under 14, and single counts of kidnapping, open and gross lewdness and assault and battery.
He remains free on $15,000 bail. He denies the charges.
Cimmino is on administrative leave from his job as assistant director of finance and accounting for the Boston Housing Authority.
Prosecutors say both alleged assaults took place at his home. The alleged victims were friends of his children.
Cimmino was a Cubmaster and religious education teacher at St. Thomas More Roman Catholic Church. He has been suspended from both volunteer positions.
