Math teacher arrested for allegedly soliciting student for sex
|
Brentwood police arrested a Heritage High School teacher on Friday on suspicion of soliciting a female student for sex, Brentwood police Lt. Tom Hansen said today.
Darin Price allegedly contacted a student on Thursday and tried to entice her to perform sexual acts, Hansen said.
Police do not believe that the girl had any physical contact with Price.
Price remained in county jail today on suspicion of contacting a minor with the intent to commit a sexual offense, arranging to meet a minor for sexual purposes and annoying or molesting a child. His bail has been set at $95,000.
Hansen said investigators were planning to meet with the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office this afternoon to present the case.
According to the school's Web site, Price taught math and was head of the girl's basketball team.
Representatives from the high school and from the Liberty Union High School District were not immediately available for comment.— Bay City News Service Are you receiving Express, our free daily e-mail edition? See a sample and sign-up for Express.

Posted by Gunslinger, a resident of the Danville neighborhood, on Jan 27, 2010 at 4:14 am Not surprising one bit. I wrote about my pervy math teacher a while ago when we were talking about prop C. This is not even remotely uncommon. I heard countless stories of the like, and saw it with my own two eyes. Yet another reason to not consider teachers to be automatically perfect. Purge the pervish and useless

Posted by Shannon, a resident of another community, on Jan 27, 2010 at 12:00 pm Really? Is this your pervy math teacher? I was a player for this coach and was in his classroom and coached alongside him through the years (over 14 years!!) and NEVER saw him be inappropriate. Yes, not all teachers are perfect, but what ever happened to innocent until proven guilty. His life is now ruined whether the allegations are true or not because his life revolves arounds kids (teacher and coach). I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because I know that he is kind and honest and loves his family. By the way, he is an excellent math teacher and coach and now it'll be gone because of an allegation.

Posted by Dale, a resident of the San Ramon neighborhood, on Jan 28, 2010 at 5:10 pm Uhhhh...everyone, listen to Shannon. It's a good question, "Whatever happened to "innocent until proven guilty?"" The tendency of people in our community to hunt and kill witches wears on one after awhile, and I'm sick of it.
Before we try this math teacher, let's at least wait to assimilate all of the facts surrounding this case (especially if you're part of the jury). Until then, consider that anyone of YOU could be accused of a horrible thing. Should that every happen, God forbid, I am sure that you'll appreciate being considered innocent until proven otherwise.

Posted by A Mathgeek, a resident of the Danville neighborhood, on Jan 28, 2010 at 8:50 pm I wonder if he was simply explaining the integral of the base of natural logarithms raised to the x power.
