We send our children off to school, and trust that they are in the safe hands of their teachers, but one particular case in Toledo has deeply troubled parents, and an internal investigation at the school.
A 50 year old teacher is accused of raping a 13 year old student in the school bathroom. He has been charged and arraigned.
When we asked the Minister of Human Development about it today she said that there is nothing more heinous than a teacher taking advantage of a student.
Dolores Balderamos Garcia, Minister of Human development
"Now that one you would almost want to lock up the offender and throw away the key mind you everybody is entitled to a fair trial but really that means that we have so much work to continue doing because a 50 year old teacher and what makes it so much more heinous is that a teacher is in the position of trust. A teacher is in a position of trust and responsibility and to know that a teacher is accused of raping a student that is really really beyond the pale."
"I think that we have to continue and fight and struggle and make sure that victims come forward and I think it is good that the young lady involved came forward with the mother or the grandmother so these things need to be reported and of course we need to hold perpetrators accountable."
