[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So to summarize:

The Chesterfield police (who were required by law to inform the school system that they had arrested an FCPS employee), FAILED TO NOTIFY THE SCHOOL SYSTEM.

This is 100% on the Chesterfield Police.

Why isn’t FCPS running background checks yearly on employees? Surely this would have come up in his record?[/quote]

We kind of HAVE A SYSTEM IN PLACE to check for that, don't we?!  I mean.... we have this LEGAL OBLIGATION for the people who ARREST someone to find out if they are a teacher, and then the people who did the arresting are LEGALLY OBLIGATED TO NOTIFY the school district.  Given that only a tiny fraction of one-percent of all school employees are arrested for sex crimes, it's far more efficient for the police to notify a school district when they have the rare arrest of a school teacher/employee.  Of course, that presumes THE POLICE ARE ACTUALLY CAPABLE OF COMPLYING WITH THE LAW.  But, you know ... that's probably asking too much of the police ... to actually fulfill their legal obligation to notify the school employer properly, right?

Let's put the burden on the school district to spend a lot of $$ and hours and effort running background checks on ALL the school employees EVERY year.  That would make a lot more sense   :roll: [/quote]
