The Times seems to be after the Los Angeles School District. First, there was the report of the "rubber room" where teachers accused of wrongdoing spend their day and collect their pay. Now, the newspaper feels that the School District has been lax in handling teachers accused of sexual misconduct.
This is not an easy matter, as the testimony of young children is not always truthful. But, the newspaper cites at least four cases where the School District seemed more interested in the accused teacher than the students. The district seemed to drop the ball if the police did not find sufficient evidence to try the teacher. The district transferred the teacher but none of the records recounting the accusations, so that the new school had no idea that the new man should be watched carefully.
