PASADENA (CBSLA.com) — The estranged partner of a Pasadena high school science teacher is accused of unlawfully accessing the man’s account and sending hundreds of nude photos to students and adults on his email list.
The emails contained a nude photo of John Muir High School teacher Richard Rosa.
After an investigation, it was determined that Rosa was out of the country at the time the emails were generated.
Authorities determined Rosa’s estranged partner, David A. Galvan, 38, accessed Rosa’s account and sent the emails because he was angry over their relationship ending.
In addition to sending the email to students, Galvan also reportedly sent the photo to other teachers, staffers and a member of the board of education. Some reports said there may have been as many as 287 recipients to the emails. The subject line reportedly said “Enjoy.”
On July 24, 2014, a complaint was filed with the LA County DA’s Office, which issued a $110,000 arrest warrant against Galvan for false impersonation, identity theft, internet/electronic impersonation and obscene matter. The first two counts involve felonies, while the second two are misdemeanors.
Officials said Galvan learned he was wanted by police and that he fled to Oregon.
With the assistance of the U.S. Marshal’s Office, Galvan was detained Oct. 21 in Hillsboro, Ore.
Galvan waived an extradition hearing and was transported Wednesday to the Pasadena City Jail.
He remains in custody after being transferred to the LA County Jail.
Rosa has been a teacher at the school since 2007. Hundreds of students signed a petition to keep Rosa’s job.
Cat fight.
Abominations acting abominably.
“Here I am, in the body God gave me, I want to take a picture of my naked self.
Why is that wrong?”
Leaving the “wrong” for later, as a photographer I have the sad duty to tell you photographs of the nude human body are among the most difficult challenges in photography.
Nude “selfies” are even harder. Cull images tend to be either embarrassingly bad or have a whiff of ‘nasty’ about them.
YMMV.
Perv hissy fit goes wrong.
There may be nothing more nasty and catty than an emotionally charged gay man who’s been wronged by their guy. I recall a nasty feud between two guys I knew through a student organization in college that was just brutal.
The American people strongly support organized gaydom now. Didn't Reagan also favor having homosexual "educators"?
Let me quote my sis-in-law and say “I don’t do naked” but some people do.
I just can’t see saying that a person doesn’t have a right to take a picture of themselves naked, that seems crazy to me.
OK, most of the rest of us won’t want to ever see it, but I can’t say that in and of itself it’s wrong, or it means you’re a sex pervert or something.
Museums are FILLED with naked people.
Here’s a funny bit: when I took my young daughter to the Met she kept covering her eyes at the nudes and muttering “French...French...”
I honestly don’t know where she got that concept from, but that girl is to the right of Atilla the Hun.
This discussion has reminded me of the Seinfeld episode, where Jerry has a girlfriend who’s basically a nudist and this leads to the realization that there’s “good naked” and “bad naked”.
So true, so true.
There is no good naked, Adam and Eve covered up for good reason.
Hell hath no fury ...
I did take full length photos of myself, in tighty whitey underwear. I did it before I went on a diet so I could get a real image in my head.
The photos were on an editing PC that was never connected to the web. I took them in my studio. They are logged in my archives as “fat ass.” No one will ever see them except my wife. And even she did not want to see them.
Really? Well what about all those nudes?
I was actually thinking about this some more.
I mean, there are not a lot of penises in the museums. So I was thinking if I were a psycho lefty I’d probably say that all that “art” is just some old-time women-exploiting porn.
And....maybe it is!
Yes, I read something about doing that the other day for a weight loss thing. It’s a good idea because otherwise it’s hard to realize that you’re getting thinner.
Everyone here is going to think I’m some crazy nudist, which I’m not.
So way not.
I don’t know how you compare perverts with century-old paintings
That is the way it should be, but as things work themselves out, it will be Christians that will be forbidden by the State[s] from teaching children.
“Never stick your [junk] in crazy”. It’s not just for heterosexuals.
My belt is a perfect barometer for my weight.
Why anyone let’s people take naked pictures of them these days is beyond me.
I see your point. On the other hand, I bet there are a lot of things people do in the privacy of their homes that I don’t want to know about - as long as it doesn’t impact my kids. Of course - just the ignorance and stupidity are there, so I suppose that enters into the class room as well.
And you know, if this David character had broken up with some good looking 20-something woman, the thread would be full of “Hey - how come I never got to see those photos of my hot teacher when I was a fourteen year old boy!?” (I’m a guy - and think the teacher sex, photos, whatever, is wrong in all cases.)
