Disturbing accusations have been leveled against a middle school coach accused of carrying on an inappropriate relationship with a student in Balch Springs.
The school district said the educator was employed with them for 20 years and worked at A.C. New Middle School
The school district told police Gonzalez agreed to speak and informed them he was simply ‘helping out’ the girl and her family. “’Oh, this is my daughter,’” said Officer Gonzalez. “So, there were no ‘red flags’ with the teachers.” “The victim has not been cooperating and so it makes it very difficult for the investigator to put the pieces together,” said Officer Gonzalez.
“It's an inappropriate relationship, but to that child, that's a person that loves them, that cares about them, that's spending a lot of time with them, that's paying attention to them,” she said. “It's very easy to dismiss as like, 'Oh, they're just being really touchy-feely or they're just being really caring about my child,'” said Gonzalez. “If we can really recognize those red flags and those boundary violations as they are, regardless of who that person is, then that can really prevent a lot of the sexual abuse that's occurring because a lot of times sexual abuse doesn't occur with people watching, but those grooming dynamics can be observed.
