    Unfortunately it seems that nobody will enlighten us as to what actually happened. :(

    Tucker High teacher charged with assaulting student on track


    Henrico police are investigating a teacher charged with assaulting a female student at Tucker High School. John Amoroso, 37, was arrested at the end of April for aggravated assault against an 18-year-old student. School officials say he's been on paid leave, since. Investigators aren't giving specific details on the incident. Detectives say the charge stems from contact between Amoroso and the girl on the school track, back on April 21. Officers say she had minor abrasions. School officials won't get specific on details over the incident, citing the situation is a personnel matter.

    ...

    NBC12 was told Amoroso was jogging on the track and passed the student. After some sort of contact, the girl is said to have fallen. It's not clear what exactly happened. NBC12 got in touch with the alleged victim's mother and adult sister. They declined to comment. We also visited Amoroso's home. The woman who answered the door, declined to talk, as well.

    Hardly anybody knows anything. In most states, sexual attacks are referred to as "assaults" and physical attacks (shoving, hitting) are "battery", but the usage isn't universal. I've had my doubts about this one all along, but let them publish some details & clarify it for everyone.

    I do appreciate your input!

    Most of the info is in the video, not in print, but apparently there was some sort of physical alternation on the running track and the victim (female, 18) suffered minor abrasions. And they're still not candid as to what really happened.

    Moving this to the non-sex category ...

    Wondering if someone could remove this. It was dismissed and the change.org petition shows just how beloved of a teacher he was and he was never able to return to teaching because of the charge.
    If anyone would be able to delete and remove the PIC I would greatly appreciate it. Wric has already unpublished their articles
