9. It's a rigged hearing. Par for the course.

Administrators can make up any kind of charges against teachers they don't like. I'll bet those kids said that against him; the HR person probably coerced them to say that garbage or she just fabricated it, most likely the latter.

Just like what happened in my termination hearing when the district's "witnesses" lied under oath about me. Of course districts can suborn perjury because perjury doesn't exist in those sham tribunals.
