Acquitted Anne Arundel County teacher assigned to location with no students, district says

An Anne Arundel County school teacher who was acquitted of sexual abuse charges remains fully employed and has been assigned to work at a place with no students, according to a district spokesperson. The school district is still investigating. "Our school district's investigation into this matter is not yet complete," said Anne Arundel County Public Schools spokesperson Bob Mosier. The teacher was acquitted of charges in June after more than a week of testimony, prompting outrage and protest from parents and community members. The Anne Arundel Public School District said it would work to finalize a review of his job status, as they are obligated to do under state law. The school year in Anne Arundel County starts on Monday, August 25. Parents and residents in Severna Park said they were given letters by the teacher's attorneys, telling them to preserve the evidence in the case. Business owners and residents held a press conference over letters sent by the teacher's attorneys. A mother and business owner said they felt like it was a scare tactic to take down their pink signs, which are scattered around the community in support of the girls who accused the teacher. "We interpret that letter as a tactic to bully, intimidate, and silence us because we are standing up for school children who shouldn't have to speak for themselves," said Severna Park parent Ashley Todd. "We are here to send a message that these tactics will not work. We are not kids who can be bullied by their teachers. We are actually business owners who will continue to display our signs." The teacher's attorney responded, saying, "Preservation letters are a routine and widely accepted component of litigation. They simply ask that potentially relevant evidence be preserved so that the facts can be fully and fairly examined by all parties." The attorney continued, "It is both ironic and troubling that certain individuals who claim that justice was not served would now object to preserving the very evidence that could help reveal the truth." Severna Park parents launched a petition through Attorney Thiru Vignarajah, urging the school district to keep the teacher out of the classroom. "It would be completely offensive, it would be completely reckless, for this teacher to be allowed back in the classroom," a parent told WJZ. A group of parents made roughly 2,000 pink signs in support of the young students who testified against the teacher.
