Former Evadale coach who got 40 years in federal prison for sexually assaulting children now facing Jasper County charges

Adam Dale Isaacks, who was sentenced in federal court on June 3, 2024, is now facing three state charges in Jasper County.

BEAUMONT, Texas — A former Evadale little league president and coach who was sentenced earlier this month to 40 years in a federal prison for sexually assaulting children is now in jail in Jasper County where he faces more charges.

Adam Dale Isaacks, 40, was booked into the Jasper County Jail on Friday where he still faces two counts of "continuous sexual abuse of a child" and one count of "indecency with a child."

Jasper County officials had been waiting to move forward with the charges until Isaack's federal charges were adjudicated.

A Jasper County trial date has not yet been set.

He also faces three counts of "continuous sexual abuse of a child" in Sabine County that have not yet been resolved.

Isaacks, who waived his right to appeal, was sentenced on June 3, 2024, to 40 years in federal prison.

He had faced up to life and now must serve at least 90%, or 36 years, of his sentence before being eligible for early release.

Isaacks previously pleaded guilty in June 2023 to four four counts of transporting a minor for purposes of sexual activity. He was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Marcia A. Crone to 10 years on each of the four counts, which will run consecutively. 

He will also have to register as a sex offender.

“We expect our little league coaches to protect the children entrusted to their care; this defendant did not do that and will now serve a lengthy sentence,” said U.S. Attorney Damien M. Diggs.  “Coaches like the defendant, Mr. Isaacks, who have sex with minors should take note of today’s sentence, which reflects the consequences of abusing one’s position of trust by taking advantage of the vulnerabilities of minors and repeatedly engaging them in unlawful sexual activities.  This case shows how local and federal agencies can work together to combat the growing epidemic of child exploitation—a crime that our office will aggressively prosecute.” 

Isaacks originally faced a total of 15 combined charges at the state and federal level for sex crimes against children.

Four of his eight victims were transported to five states: Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Florida and Oklahoma.

Isaacks was first arrested on Thursday, Dec. 30, 2021 in Sabine County. In early January 2022, Isaacks' Silsbee home was searched by law enforcement. 

Bags of evidence were taken out of his home as part of the investigation.

The investigation into the case began in December of 2021 when a child in Jasper County told his parents about an alleged incident. Following an investigation, an arrest warrant was issued for Isaacks.

Isaacks was reported to have sexually assaulted eight minor members of his baseball team.  The boys were between 9 and 11 years old the time of the offenses.
