We have, however, heard the stories. Usually they involve high-profile court cases, jail time, public humilitation, and a ban from contact with minors. Then, there are employees in New York schools.

One such teacher/molester, Francisco Olivares (Google it; the stories are all over), was employed in Queens. He married and impregnated (NOT in that order) a 16-year-old that he had (according to some reports) molested at age 13 while she was his student in math class. (Many weird math analogies come to mind, but I will spare my readers.)

Over the next 14 years, he is accused of molesting three other students. In two of the cases, he was charged and, due to a technicality, his conviction overturned. He's not alone; there are dozens of similar reports in New York schools.

What really riled me up was that - wait for it! - he's still on the payroll, kept away from students and earning in excess of $94,000 a year! As one report put it - Olivares, now 60, is being paid (handsomely, in my book) for NOT molesting students! And he's only one of over 600!

Attempts to get rid of him were, apparently, against state laws and - yup! - union rules. The department of education is settling for having him (and his 600+ 'friends') away from students. Hmmmm!?

I don't molest minors, which may immediately disqualify me. But - for $94,000 a year - I could be persuaded to continue my, abnormal by NY schools' standards, non-molesting behavior.
