Eric Curtis Chapman, a teacher and baseball coach in Arizona, was arrested for multiple child sex crimes, including filming himself engaging in sexual acts with students on campus. Following a tip about inappropriate photographs sent to minors, detectives uncovered his admissions of sexual interactions with students, both current and former. During a virtual court appearance, he displayed an inappropriate grin, leading to further public outrage. The school district promptly fired Chapman and emphasized their commitment to cooperating with law enforcement in the investigation.
What's concerning to the state is when officers interviewed the suspect, he admitted to sexual acts happening as recently as last week, prosecutor Ashley Stetson said during his hearing.
It's scary in this day and age to send your kid to school, because you have no idea what's going to happen, one parent of a child from Cortez High School told the outlet.
Upon learning of the allegations, school and district administration took immediate action, the Glendale Union High School District said.
The teacher has been relieved of all duties. The Glendale Union High School District takes these matters seriously and works closely with law enforcement to support their investigations.
