Teacher Does The Unthinkable To Students
from True Crime & The Court of Public Opinion with Alexis Knight · host Alexis Knight | Facts First. Clarity Always.
Teacher Does The Unthinkable To StudentsStephen Budd, a former teacher at Rosarian Academy Elementary School who was accused of child molestation, has been convicted on all charges. In 2006, two fourth-grade girls reported that Budd had given them candy in exchange for sexual favors. The incidents took place in 2003 when Budd was their homeroom teacher. The victims, who are now adults, were 9 years old at the time. Budd used a classroom reward system called "Budd Bucks" or candy to reward his student victims for the sexual acts. Budd had no prior criminal history and had been working with adult students at South Tech Academy in Boynton Beach. During the trial, the young woman repeatedly confronted Budd with accusations that he molested her and showed his penis to the girls on many occasions. Budd denied all allegations. The case involved graphic testimony from former fourth-grade students and secretly recorded phone calls between Budd and his accusers. A former classmate of the accusers testified that they had told her about Budd exposing himself while they sat under his desk. Budd, 53, has been sentenced to three consecutive life sentences, as well as another 15 years.#policebodycams #bodycam #bodycamarrest #realbodycam #detectiveTrue Crime: The Court of Public Opinion Podcast: Join the Podcast and dive deeper into the chaos of real-life crime with Alexis Knight!
