Leetwain Darrell Tate, aka “Sharon” A male North Carolina school bus driver who identifies as a woman and calls himself “Ms. Sharon” was arrested last week and charged with multiple counts of sexual abuse against minors.
Leetwain Darrell Tate, 48, was arrested in an investigation involving juveniles ages 14 to 15 on Tuesday. He goes by “Sharon” or “Ms. Sharon” and has victimized at least four children, even offering at least one money for sexual acts, according to an arrest affidavit.
Per the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, Tate is charged with two counts of statutory rape, six counts of indecent liberties with a minor, and one count of statutory sex offense.
Tate is now in the custody of the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office.
More from WCNC:
Tate’s family, who was present at the courthouse Wednesday, told WCNC Charlotte they believe Tate is innocent.
Tate was previously employed as a school bus driver at Sugar Creek Charter School. The school suspended Tate during the investigation and terminated Tate from employment on Sunday, according to police.
Preliminary information indicates the incidents did not occur on school property or while Tate was operating a school bus, police said.
An arrest affidavit reviewed by WCNC Charlotte indicates there were at least four victims, with several boys staying at Tate’s residence. At least one reported being offered money for sexual acts.
“It’s pretty disturbing that it is so close to home and you are just shocked,” a local resident, Tony Sanders, told the outlet.
“To me it’s a shame… 14, 15 years old can be so impressionable at that age. To think someone would take advantage of that is very alarming.”
The school said in a statement that Tate “met all requirements necessary to fulfill the position” at the time of hiring.
But some parents are now questioning the school’s background check process.
After reading the story I feel the entire family should be euthanized.
I suggest a chainsaw vasectomy!
These disgusting perverts just need to be rounded up and locked in rubber cells in straitjackets.
Ever read Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado”?...........😉

Never heard of it until AI explained below:
It’s about a man named Montresor who lures his acquaintance Fortunato down into some underground wine vaults/catacombs, supposedly to taste a rare wine called Amontillado. But it’s actually a trap - Montresor has some grudge against Fortunato and wants revenge. He gets Fortunato drunk and leads him deeper and deeper underground, then chains him to a wall in a small alcove and literally bricks him in alive, leaving him to die there.
The really creepy part is that Montresor is telling this story 50 years later, recounting how he murdered someone and got away with it. We never really learn what Fortunato supposedly did to deserve this - Montresor just vaguely mentions “a thousand injuries” and an insult.
It’s only about 5-6 pages long, so it’s a quick read if you’re curious. Very dark, very Poe - all about revenge, deception, and this cold, calculated murder. The story is known for its atmosphere and the disturbing calmness of the narrator as he describes what he did.
I think Laz requires that they are at least biological females.
This guy also has the “middle” name of Lee, which is a marker for hideous crime.
Lee (in the) twain.
Is anyone really surprised that a trannie would be molesting boys?
