In 1982, he was charged with statutory rape of a 14-year-old girl. In March 1983, he pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of communication with a minor for immoral purposes and was fined $350.

He changed his name to McCullough in 1994, records show.

McCullough's stepdaughter, Janey O'Connor, has been steadfast in her support, saying she'd been alone with him many times; that he's helped raise her children and never acted inappropriately.
