SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) A Springfield businessman has pleaded not guilty to two felony counts of child molestation.
Edward Amberg was formally arraigned Tuesday on the charges, which involve allegations from 2008 involving a child under the age of 14 at the time.
Amberg is the founder of Amberg Entertainment, which rents such entertainment as bounce houses, rock walls, carnival-style rides. He also has volunteered with YMCA’s Camp Wakonda, the Boy Scouts and the Salvaation Army.
