DA dismisses sex abuse case against fired Oakland teacher
Briefly

Prosecutors have dismissed the child sex abuse case against Jeremy Taylor, a former teacher at Oakland School of the Arts, due to insufficient evidence apart from the alleged victim's claims. This decision followed a court order requiring the school to produce records regarding the case. Taylor's attorney maintained his innocence while the alleged victim expressed profound trauma from the experiences, highlighting the personal impact of the abuse. The dismissal closes a lengthy ordeal marked by serious allegations and legal disputes over compliance with subpoenas.
"I desire the unhealthy bond we once had. I loved this man, smiled, and was genuinely okay with him raping me over and over and over again," Doe said in court.
Taylor's lawyer, Liz Grossman, stated that Taylor 'has always been steadfast in his innocence and is grateful that justice has finally been obtained against these false and ruinous allegations.'
