In case you haven't heard, the St. Vrain Valley School District hired a ped*phile and ch*ld pornogr*pher (censored for filters, not oversensitivity to the words), and after allegations he had exploited their students, they gave him nearly $50,000 to resign and stay quiet via a non-disclosure agreement, but they did NOT notify the Colorado Department of Education. He is now charged with 40 felonies.

"It raises a lot of concerns ... If St. Vrain knew this was the situation, why was his license not flagged or reported to the Colorado Department of Education?"

"The resignation agreement with St. Vrain Valley Schools required the district to pay Patricio Illanes for the rest of the school year – nearly $50,000 – and keep the agreement confidential."
