English soccer star Adam Johnson has been found guilty of one charge of sexual activity with a child after earlier being cleared on another similar count.
Johnson, 28, a former standout for Sunderland of the Premier League, pleaded guilty to one count of sexual activity with a child and one of grooming at Bradford Crown Court on the opening day of his trial on Feb. 10, denying two further charges of sexual activity with a girl under the age of 16.
