San Antonio Teacher Arrested for Child Indecency and Classroom Groping
Priscilla Castro, a 27-year-old assistant teacher at KIPP University Prep High School in San Antonio, has been arrested and terminated after allegations of inappropriate conduct involving a 15-year-old female student. The student reported that Castro groped her during the last day of school in May and had been overly affectionate throughout the year, making her uncomfortable. Castro also allegedly called the student from blocked numbers and asked if she would report the misconduct. The school conducted an internal investigation, confirmed the allegations, and cooperated with police, leading to Castro's arrest and release on bail. She is prohibited from contacting children under 17 and from being near the school. The San Antonio Police Department urges anyone affected to come forward. This case adds to recent headlines involving misconduct and criminal activities in the US.
