NYC Department of Education employee arrested in the Bronx, accused of sexual abuse
Raheem Logue, 44, was taken into custody within the confines of the New York City Police Department 44th Precinct.
The dean of Bronx School for Law, Government and Justice was arrested Friday afternoon after allegedly sexually abusing one of his students.
Raheem Logue, 44, was arrested and taken to the New York City Police Department’s 44th Precinct.
According to the criminal complaint, Logue is facing felony and misdemeanor sexual abuse charges, along with forcible touching and harassment.
It goes on to say he allegedly had a 17-year-old female student inside an office alone. He then allegedly grabbed her neck and forced her to bend over a desk, then grinded and pressed his genital area against her buttocks through clothing. He then allegedly repeatedly said, "I'm your OPP."
In a statement to News 12, a spokesperson for the Department of Education said, "These allegations are serious and deeply disturbing. The individual has been suspended without pay, and if the claims are confirmed, we will pursue termination. We are also putting appropriate supports in place for the school community."
News 12 reached out to the school, Logue, and his attorney, but did not hear back.
