An elementary school principal and a gym teacher from Georgia, USA who engaged in a years-long affair have both been fired after allegedly having sex on school grounds.
Some of the sexcapades between Banks County Elementary School Principal Dana Simmons, who is married, and physical education teacher Dylan Charles were even caught on camera by Charles? wife, WSB-TV reported, citing an internal report that was conducted by an external firm.
The school affair came to light after Simmons accused Charles of accessing secret school district information either by bugging her office or having a source inside the county?s school board, the report issued at the end of January 2023 states.
After that issue was settled, Charles
looked for district officials and admitted to having an affair with
Simmons and said they even had sex at the elementary school, as well as
off-campus, the report states.
Simmons reportedly claimed at first the two only had an ?inappropriate friendship? and denied any sexual contact.
But
Charles came with apparent receipts of the sexual encounters, including
one of him and Simons kissing mouth to mouth and another photo of a
naked man and woman inside a vehicle having sex that Charles said was
him and Simmons, the report states.
Other photos showed a woman identified as Simmons performing oral sex on a man inside a vehicle and a naked woman standing inside a room that is near Simmons? office at the school, the report states.
Texts between him, his wife and Simmons were also handed over to internal investigators, according to the report.
?Again,
there is no context added to the pictures or the text messages, but the
totality of the evidence tends to support Mr. Charles?s claim of an
inappropriate relationship between Dr. Simmons and Mr. Charles,? the
report states.
During her interview with the outside firm,
Simmons fessed up to having a sexual relationship with Charles, but
denied having sex on school grounds, according to the report. She
insisted the sexual liaisons were set up by the PE teacher?s wife Kelsey
Charles and that she even watched the two have sex, the report states.
A confidant of Simmons told investigators she once saw a text to Simmons from Kelsey Charles that point blank asked, ?Would you like to f? my husband??
Wife Kelsey Charles, in an interview with the
independent investigative firm, alleged Simmons made promises to both
her and her husband that she?d help their careers and also claimed
Simmons was ?manipulating? them, the report says. She also accused
Simmons of pressuring her to allow her to sleep with her husband, the
report states.
?There is conclusive evidence of a sexual
relationship between Dr. Simmons and Mr. Charles,? staff from internal
investigators John Grant & Dr. Paul Shaw wrote.
?Pictures, Video, Admissions by both parties, Verification by Kelsey Charles.?
The firm additionally concluded evidence indicated sexual activity occurred at Banks County Elementary School.
The
school district told WSB-TV in a statement ?the educators involved are
no longer teaching Banks County students,? but stressed no crime had
taken place. The two resigned, the Macon Telegraph reported.
?Upon
receiving allegations involving the matter at hand, the District
immediately hired independent investigators to conduct an investigation
and provide a report of findings,? Banks County Superintendent Ann
Hopkins said in a statement to WSB-TV.
?The investigative
report in question was reviewed by law enforcement for evidence of
criminal activity and none was found. The educators involved are no
longer teaching Banks County students.
?The safety and
well-being of our students is always our first priority. The
investigation into this event did not yield any indication that student
safety or security was compromised.?
