Principal Charged With Trying To Sexually Abuse Former Student

Robert Allen Lane, the former principal at Collinsville Christian Academy in Collinsville, Illinois has been charged with twice trying to sexually abuse a former student. Both incidents allegedly happened on campus during business hours. Police say they think there might be additional victims. Lane worked for the school system for many years, so it will be interesting to see whether evidence exists that school officials were aware of the abuse. If so, the victims may be able to pursue a civil lawsuit against the Academy.
