I wanted to ask state Sen. Anthony Williams what he made of a West Chester high-school swim coach who has been accused of sexual misconduct with a student.
But so many local educators have been charged lately with letting their hands roam where they shouldn’t that I kept mixing up the names, dates and places.
In January, for instance, Delaware teacher Charles Coursey was charged with having sex with a 17-year-old student. The next month, another teacher from the First State, Matthew Pleasanton, was brought up on similar charges.
In March, it was church schoolteacher Nicole Jacques’ turn to be accused. Authorities in Hatfield Township, Montgomery County, say she bedded a 15-year-old who’d been her student.
