A Cleveland Metropolitan School District employee resigned on Thursday, and local outlets report she is being looked at by law enforcement over reported involvement in Wednesday’s riot at the U.S. Capitol.
According to Fox 8, the employee, Christine, is under investigation over the riot. A district spokeswoman told the station the school board accepted her resignation.
Christine’s resignation letter, as reported, listed three reasons for leaving. She wrote that she did not want to receive the COVID 19 vaccine, that she would be “switching paths to expose the global evil of human trafficking and pedophilia,” and that she did not agree with how her union dues were used. She has not been charged with a crime, and a public response from her was not available at the time of this report.
District officials condemned the violence at the Capitol and told the station they could not comment further. The Cleveland Teachers Union released a statement on Friday. “We are aware of reports of a Cleveland educator who engaged in rioting in the Capitol. We take these allegations very seriously, and if true, they must be held accountable,” union president Shari Obrenski said. The union added that it supports peaceful protest but that what happened at the Capitol was not a protest.
WKYC reports the FBI visited Christine’s home on Friday. As of Sunday, she was not facing any criminal charges.
