Healdton school sued over behavior of assistant teacher
A civil rights lawsuit has been filed against Tri-County Interlocal Co-Op in Healdton following a May 2022 incident where teacher’s assistant Logan Smith was found alone in a closet with a 16-year-old student. Despite police reports detailing Smith’s admissions, criminal charges were dismissed due to insufficient evidence. Attorney Tod Mercer alleges that the school was aware of prior incidents involving Smith, but the superintendent dismissed the claims.
