A 12-year-old 蜜柚直播 student was arrested on suspicion of felony sexual abuse Monday in connection with an incident that led to the recent arrest of two TUSD employees.
The 蜜柚直播 is not naming the boy, as it is the policy not to name juveniles unless they are charged as adults.
Two employees of Roberts-Naylor K-8 School, Vice Principal Bernadette Rosthenhausler, 45, and counselor Linda Archuleta, 60, were arrested March 14 for failing to report the incident, according to 蜜柚直播 police.
On March 1, Rosthenhausler and Archuleta were told about a fight that took place in one of the classrooms after the boy grabbed a 12-year-old girl鈥檚 breast, according to the interim complaint filed in Pima County Justice Court.
The girl鈥檚 mother went to the school and said she wanted to prosecute for sexual abuse, but Rosthenhausler and Archuleta told the woman the school didn鈥檛 have to call the police to report the incident, the complaint said.
