from what i know, this is the 4th incident...how many more is it going to take for school officials to deny him employment??? What is it going to take to make him register as a sex offender??? This guy should have never been given employment where minors are around (uhh schools are FULL of minors) after the first incident in kingsville, or after edcouch-elsa, or even from edinburg (3rd school)...there may even be more that we are not aware of! I hope he is no longer working w/minors!

google: teachertrash and myshortpencil these list teachers/coaches by State who molest students and children. Why is this still 'surging' in the 21st Century? Doesn't anyone care about children? I know they don't care in North Carolina.

I can believe that he would do something like this. He had very bizarre behavior during my three years in the KISD JROTC program. He was relieved of his duties during my junior year because of allegations.

There were allegations against this same teacher in KISD for inappropriate behavior with students, but they were dropped and he changed schools.
