Associated Press - January 9, 2008 7:44 PM ET

PHOENIX (AP) - A jailed Chandler Sunday school teacher plead not guilty Wednesday to molestation charges against a 5-year-old girl.

Sixty-2-year-old Terry Greenwood taught Sunday school at Chandler United Methodist Church. He was indicted Dec. 31 and accused of sexual conduct with a minor, molestation and indecent exposure.

The Arizona Republic Web site reports Greenwood told police he molested the girl and made her perform a sex act, according to reports.

Greenwood blamed his actions on medication he was taking for high blood pressure, that he has erectile dysfunction and mental problems, the police report shows.

A message left with the church was not immediately returned.
