Peoria Unified School District plans to hire a third-party investigator to examine sexual misconduct allegations at Centennial High School, involving two former teachers. The board will discuss this tonight, aiming to determine if anyone knew about the issues and remained silent. The allegations include inappropriate relationships with a teen student, thousands of texts, meetups, booze, weed, cash payments, and explicit videos. Both teachers have been fired, with one facing pandering charges and the other aggravated luring of a minor accusations. Parents are outraged, and the case has gained national attention due to the involvement of a TikTok stars brother. The district seeks an independent review to counter media buzz and protect against lawsuits.
