Staffers at Palm Beach Central High School Arrested for Failing to Report Sexual Abuse
The principal and several other high-ranking school officials at Palm Beach Central High School in Wellington, Florida, have been arrested for failing to report the alleged sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl to law enforcement and the Florida Department of Children and Families. The parents initially chose not to pursue criminal charges, but later contacted a detective, alleging that multiple staff members were negligent in reporting the incident. The arrest report reveals that a friend of the victim wrote a letter to a teacher, who claims to have given it to someone in the guidance office. However, the school officials failed to properly address the allegations, leading to their arrests.
