Bad Bad Teacher

(11/12/08 – Initial BadBadTeacher.com Report)

Kelvin S. Johnson, 28, a former shop teacher and girls’ basketball coach at Patrick Henry High School in Ashland, Virginia, who was arrested on October 28 in Hanover County on one count each of taking indecent liberties with a minor and using a computer to facilitate a sexual offense involving a child, has now been indicted by a grand jury in Henrico County on four additional counts of taking indecent liberties with a minor.

At the time of Johnson’s arrest in Hanover County there was an allegation that he was having a relationship with a teenage girl although it was unknown by news media whether or not she was a student at Patrick Henry High School.

In spite of the grand jury indictment, authorities in both Hanover and Henrico counties have declined to say whether the charges involve more than one juvenile.

In the wake of Johnson’s October arrest, parents of students at Patrick Henry High School were up in arms complaining of the lack of information regarding Johnson, the alleged victim or victims and the school’s handing of the incident.

Reportedly Kelvin Johnson no longer works for the school system, however school officials have not confirmed any action regarding Johnson’s employment.
