Florida school district to pay $3.6 million after blaming third-graders for being molested by teacher
The group of girls, now adults, accused teacher Blake Sinrod of fondling them in their Coral Sunset Elementary School classroom in 2005.

Authorities began to investigate the matter after one of the young students told her mother Sinrod had touched her inappropriately during a reading group and also instructed her to touch his genitals through his pants. Three other girls told similar stories of classroom abuse.
The teacher, now 46, was fired in 2006 and pleaded guilty to child abuse charges involving two of the students in May of the same year. His teaching license was revoked in 2008.
