WRTV Investigates Kara Kenney fights for what's right and holds those in power accountable.
Internal emails obtained by WRTV Investigates reveal the then-superintendent of the Taylor Community School Corporation reported a teacher to the Indiana Department of Education in 2011 but stopped short of providing details of the alleged misconduct.
“It’s too bad that no further information was provided to IDOE to start an investigation because it almost certainly would have prevented any further victims and would have made Brok realize that he wasn’t alone,” said Terrell.Current superintendent Steve Dishon said he was a teacher in 2011 and declined to speak with WRTV.
