WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Stunned by the aftermath of sex crime allegations involving an ex-teacher at Rosarian Academy, parents and teachers got advice from experts on how to keep their children safe.
In early April, former Rosarian Academy teacher Stephen Budd was arrested for allegedly forcing several students into sex acts.
Weeks later, Rosarian Academy parents like Eliezer Hernandez sat and listened on Tuesday to a panel who hoped to prevent future sex crimes involving children.
“I mean what do you say? We’re at a loss for what we say to our six-year-old,” said Hernandez, who has both a six-year-old and a two-year-old at Rosarian Academy.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office along with the Center for Missing and Exploited Children tried to help parents on Tuesday to prevent their kids from trusting the wrong people.
