A history teacher for the nation’s largest school district has been banned from teaching in New York City for fondling and forcing a student to pose for explicit photos inside a storage cage, according to authorities.
Special investigators for New York City School District say 57-year-old Raemon Matthews took racy photographs of a 17-year-old girl inside a cage used for storage in a classroom at the Samuel Gompers Career and Technical Education High School in the Bronx in 2009.
Earlier this year, Matthews pleaded guilty to one count of misdemeanor sex abuse for fondling the student. He was sentenced in June to serve one year of probation. Matthews resigned in April.
Attempts by NBC News to contact school officials or union officials to request terms of Matthews’ resignation were unsuccessful on Tuesday.
According to the investigators’ report, Matthews convinced the student to pose for the photos by telling her she needed a portfolio for college recruiters.
