sep 18 2017There is disturbing new information about the Northside High School principal who was suddenly removed and reassigned by Houston ISD along with two of her assistants.
FOX 26 has confirmed that former Northside Principal Julissa Alcantar Martinez hired an orchestra director who had been previously convicted and served prison time for indecency and aggravated sexual assault of a child.
That ex-convict was 43-year-old mariachi instructor Jose Nino, who parents say taught at the high school formerly known as Jeff Davis for three years before students were abruptly informed he would not be returning in the fall of 2016.
FOX 26 has also confirmed Nino was arrested in 2010 on suspicion of sexual assault of a child and again in 2012 for public lewdness.
So how was a guy with this kind of dangerous record allowed to teach our public school students?
Turns out principal Alcantar Martinez hired Nino as a "vendor" avoiding the criminal background check teachers go through and paying Nino out of discretionary funds allotted to the campus.
