Jonathan Townsend

Posted by: Webmaster in Administrators, Alabama, High Schools, ME-UNKNOWN

Jonathan Townsend, 40, assistant principal at Opp High School in Opp, Alabama already facing charges of attempted sexual abuse in the first degree, solicitation to commit sexual abuse in the first degree and harassing communications has now been charged with three additional counts of first-degree attempted sexual abuse.

Apparently all of the allegations against Townsend are the result of alleged inappropriate behavior toward students.

Townsend first came to the attention of authorities by way of complaints from the parents of two students alleging improper behavior on Townsend’s part. Following the initial complaints against Townsend, the parent of yet another student came forward with similar allegations.

Townsend had previously be placed on administrative leave by the school system for undisclosed reasons.

    Cindy we would love to update our reference on Jonathan Townsend but we can find nothing indicating that he was either “not found guilty” or that the charges were otherwise dropped.

    I just conducted an extensive internet search for any information on Mr. Townsend and while I find numerous links to his arrest and charges there was zero links indicating he is no longer charged or was “not found guilty” which I assume means “found not guilty”.

    If you have a link to ANYTHING that indicates Mr. Townsend is no longer facing the charges please post it here or e-mail it to webmaster@badbadteacher.com and we will be happy to update our coverage.

    it is wrong for you too still have this on the web, being that he was not found guilty of any of these charges. All charges was dropped. You need to do a follow up because this could mess someones entire life up.
