There is a post on Facebook from a parent from the Lewisville Tx School district saying he was her son's teacher at Donald Elementry School and was allowed to resign for inappropriate behavior towards female students.

I bet the sick bastard went after the parents to get to their girls.

This repost says oklahoma, but I found the original on FB and it's lewisville Tx

From the comments of that FB post I linked...looks like the guy has been bouncing between schools pretty quickly...I wonder how many of them hid his behavior?

From Bayyari Elementary School, Springdale Arkansas where he was agoing to be a teacher this year


From Northwoods Fine Arts Academy in Oklahoma


From Donald Elementary in Lewisville, Texas...where he was reportedly allowed to resign after being reported for inappropriate behavior towards female students

The authorities haven't said. So far there doesn't appear to be any connection between the victims and the killer. However, the evidence appears to be pointing to the possibility that it was a random attack on the parents to get the two little girls they had with them.

Did he molest the girls? He does appear to be a friggin weirdo but can't find anything interaction with the girls.

Edit for accuracy: No, the girls ran off and were not hurt.

On Facebook, there are comments from parents at schools where he formerly taught about him being quietly let go due to inappropriate behavior towards young girls. I linked it in my earlier posts.

A male teacher who loves cats?

That’s a MAGA extremist profile if there ever was one.

This is the problem with unions like we have with teachers and cops. They can’t fire these people no matter how bad they frick up so they just let them resign and find another job somewhere else.
