91-006677  BETTY CASTOR, AS COMMISSIONER OF EDUCATION vs SAMUEL LEE ROBERTS  (1991)
Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida Filed: Oct. 18, 1991
The issues in these cases concern administrative prosecutions in which Commissioner Castor seeks to discipline the Florida Teaching Certificate held by Respondent and Superintendent Marsh has brought charges seeking to dismiss the Respondent from his teaching duties with the Nassau County School District. The alleged offenses described in the Administrative Complaint by Commissioner Castor and the Statement of Charges by Superintendent Marsh are the same as they detail misconduct associated with inappropriate touching of students male and female, inappropriate remarks, some of a sexual nature, to include drawing innuendos from statements made by students in his class and the use of profanity in front of and directed to students. The Administrative Complaint by the Commissioner differs from the Statement of Charges by the superintendent in that the Commissioner makes allegations about the conduct of the Respondent in the school year 1985-86 while the Statement of Charges by the superintendent does not. In addition Commissioner Castor accuses Respondent of making racially biased remarks in class and of offering a false report to school administrators and police officers concerning alleged harassment with racial overtones directed to the Respondent who is a black man in a setting in which these actions by the students were made in a joking manner and the Respondent acknowledged them in that fashion. Moreover, the Administrative Complaint asserts that the Respondent knew who the students were who had given him certain items with connotations which evidence racial hatred and bigotry and failed to reveal their names to the authorities. The items are referred to in the Administrative Complaint as a rope noose, a wooden tombstone and a miniature coffin. Mention is made in the Administrative Complaint that the Respondent was charged with giving false information to a police officer concerning the alleged commission of a crime by the students in this setting in which the students did not intend offense and Respondent took no offense concerning the items in question and notes given to the Respondent by the student containing racially biased material. Finally, the Administrative Complaint by Commissioner Castor speaks of the Respondent's participation in a pretrial intervention deferred prosecution agreement through the Fourth Judicial Circuit of Florida where Respondent agreed to perform community service hours, thereby deferring the prosecution for a period of six months. In all particulars the Respondent denies that he has engaged in any misconduct.Complaint concerning speech in class using sexual innuendo, especially related to female students, also racial remarks and false report of racial threats.
