Why were they not fired?
I’m actually surprised they weren’t promoted and given huge raises.
Unions...would be my guess.
See #3. When the crime is child abuse or child sexual abuse, Washington state has a history of the people in authority making it worse.
At a minimum, they should be suspended without pay; same for the Superintendent.
What amazes me is why Superintendents try to cove this stuff up. It never ends well for them. If they suspend the alleged offenders without pay and report them to law enforcement, they are in the clear. They don’t even have to tell the public they were suspended without pay and refer questions to law enforcement. That way, they can’t be sued for defamation. It’s really that simple.
They were only just "criminally cited."
I'd think the district would need a conviction before anyone can be fired.
