At least 269 K-12 educators arrested on child sex crimes in first 9 months of this year
Nearly 270 public educators were arrested on child sex-related crimes in the U.S. in the first nine months of this year, ranging from grooming to raping underage students.
An analysis conducted by Fox News Digital found that from Jan. 1 to Sept. 30, at least 269 educators were arrested, which works out to roughly one arrest a day.
The 269 educators included four principals, two assistant principals, 226 teachers, 20 teacher’s aides and 17 substitute teachers.
At least 199 of the arrests, or 74%, involved alleged crimes against students
The Department of Education last released a report on the topic in 2004, which claimed that nearly 9.6% of students are targets of educator sexual misconduct sometime during their school career.

What I find almost comical is that no RSO is permitted on school grounds for the safety of the children…. Yet, they are harmed, but by the staff and not those who “pose” such a danger!
If protecting children is the main focus of sex offender laws why not abolish the public school system and replace it with online home schooling to keep children safe from predatory teachers? Because the laws are about retribution not keeping children safe.
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that none of these people were on the registry.
They are now.
