Teacher Sex Image Probe, Suicide at Elite School for Scandal
When a former Jeopardy! champion-turned-teacher was arrested as authorities investigated him for allegedly spreading sexualized images on social media, it cash an unwelcome light on an elite New York private school known for celebrity alumni.
But the disturbing episode is casting a spotlight on other accusations against Saint Ann's School, the freewheeling, grades-free school in tony Brooklyn Heights whose alumni include actresses Lena Dunham and Jennifer Connelly and fashion designer Zac Posen.
The Brooklyn District Attorney says the probe into ex-math instructor Winston Nguyen—previously convicted of stealing cash from an elderly couple in his care—is ongoing and that he hasn’t been charged with any crime.
