CHICAGO (AP) – Sexual abuse charges have been filed against a Chicago Public Schools teacher for allegedly abusing a former student.
Jason P. Gil on Tuesday was ordered held without bond on criminal sexual assault, solicitation of child pornography, solicitation to meet a child and grooming charges.
Authorities say Skokie police learned Gil had an “inappropriate relationship” with the 14-year-old girl, who lives in the Chicago suburb. Gil previously taught the girl at an unnamed CPS school.
Gil is listed on a Chicago Public Schools employee roster as a part-time bilingual teacher at an elementary school on Chicago’s northwest side. A CPS spokesman says Gil was removed from his position.
It wasn’t immediately known if Gil has legal representation.
