COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Joshua Carrier, the former middle school wrestling coach on trial for allegedly sexually assaulting boys on the team, has been found not guilty on most of the more than 200 counts against him.

A jury could not reach a verdict on several charges, but of the sexual assault charges they were able to decide on, Carrier was found not guilty of all of them. 

He was guilty of an unlawful sexual assault charge originally. However, one juror said she changed her mind when asked by the judge if that was indeed the verdict, so that became a no decision as well.

Carrier was found guilty of counts of sexual exploitation of a child, but was found innocent of most of those as well. He was in possession of child pornography.

There will be a retrial for the "no verdict" counts.
