A former Benicia Unified school teacher accused of child molestation returns to Solano County Superior Court Tuesday for a preliminary hearing in Vallejo, where he faces 12 counts of lewd acts on four children under 14.
When freelance reporter Holly McDede, who wrote about the case for the Vallejo Sun, filed California Public Records Acts requests with both the Napa and Benicia school districts, Shelton filed a lawsuit to block them from releasing the documents. The court directed the districts to withhold the records until the matter was settled.
Attorney David Loy — who represented McDede, on behalf of the San Rafael-based nonprofit First Amendment Coalition, in the reverse CPRA lawsuit against both school districts — confirmed some information in Gizzi’s ruling during a brief telephone interview Monday. Napa attorney Amanda I. Bevins represents Shelton. Deputy District Attorney Barry Shapiro leads the prosecution.
Additionally, court records indicate the court has subpoenaed records from Highland Elementary in Vallejo, Adventist Health in Vallejo, and Contra Costa Regional Medical Center in Martinez.
