    Retired teacher suspect in child molestation case

    A retired Phoenix teacher's letter to a girl admitting to improper sexual contact with the girl nearly two decades ago helped lead to his arrest Tuesday. Jose Ruben Mada, 54, was being held without bond on one count of felony molestation of a child and felony sexual abuse in connection with repeated contact with a girl in 1995 through 1997 when she was 12 and 14 years old, according to police.

    The victim reported the alleged abuse on March 25, 2011, but police said they were unable to contact Mada. The victim recently turned the letter from Mada over to police and the victim then spoke with the suspect on Feb. 24 during which Mada said he couldn't explain his actions, police said.

    Police arrest ex-Phoenix teacher on sex crime charges

    Police said Mada's accuser was abused between 1995 and 1997, around the time she was in eighth grade. She told police Mada would come into her room and touch her breasts and vagina while kissing her, reports show. She told police Mada told her not to tell anyone. Police said the woman gave investigators a letter Mada had written to her stating his actions were unacceptable. When confronted by the victim last month, reports show Mada said he did not know exactly why he did it, it was "just one of those things that happened."

    ...

    Documents from the State Board of Education show Mada was fired from the Phoenix Elementary School District in 2002 -- when he was a fourth-grade teacher at Bethune Elementary -- after sexual-harassment charges. Investigators at the time gave Mada a polygraph test after a third-grade girl alleged he lifted her shirt above her breasts and rubbed her stomach. He was cleared of any criminal conduct after the examination.

    Mada then went on to teach at Rose Linda Elementary in the Roosevelt Elementary School District. He resigned in 2009 after one of his students told the school nurse she was afraid of him because he would kiss her, touch her legs and slap her on the buttocks, according to State Board of Education documents. Police were unable to prove any criminal acts had been committed in that incident, according to documents from the State Board of Education.

The girl reported to police that Mada would lay in bed with her and touch her, sometimes kiss her, and at other times he would stand over her and tell her not to tell anyone, the report says. She was between 12 and 14 at the time, the report says.

    ...

    Police said in the report that detectives tried to interview Mada on several occasions, but he avoided them. He then, according to the report, sent the victim a letter apologizing for his actions. On Feb. 24, police said the victim confronted Mada and again asked him why he touched her. According to the report, Mada "told her he didn't know why and he couldn't explain it."
