STATE OF NEW JERSEY VS. BARTHOLOMEW P. MCINERNEY
          A-5292-09T1
We reversed defendant's conviction for second-degree child endangerment, N.J.S.A. 2C:24-4a, because the trial court's jury instruction, patterned after the Model Jury Charge, allowed for a conviction based on a relationship between defendant, a high school athletic coach, and student-victims, not statutorily prescribed.
