School Teacher And Pastors Wife Accused Of Sexually Assaulting Students

A pre-K and Kindergarten teacher has been arrested and charged with criminal sexual assault and soliciting child pornography.

Pastor's Wife Allegedly Spent Six Years Assaulting Children 

According to an investigation performed by a sheriff's office, Shannon Griffin, a teacher at Jordan Baptist School near Chicago, was involved in sexual assault from 2013 to March, 2019. The teacher would provide a 15-year-old student with alcohol in exchange for sex according to the legal complaints filed against her. Additionally, investigators are claiming that she sent nude photographs of herself to several students and requested nude photographs of the children in return.

The investigation began when those photographs were circulated around the school and parents discovered the images.

Griffin and her husband run both the church and the school where she works and are well known throughout the community, which has been rocked by the allegations.

Children Are Often Sexually Assaulted By Adults They Know 

We would all like to imagine that those who choose to sexually assault children are monsters that hide in the shadows but the harsh fact is that most victims are sexually assaulted by someone close to them. This makes it even more difficult for victims to speak out - they don't want to upset others by speaking ill of someone they love. Or, as in many cases, the person committing the assault threatens those that the victim loves so they remain silent.
