25. UPDATE on this case - important

Hi democratic underground members:

I am reviving this old post for a very good reason - PLEASE read:

The teacher discussed in the above post from 3 years ago is David Michael Kissner, and when his name is googled this thread is one of the top results. I am hoping this thread (via google) can prevent future parents and employers from putting children at risk!

David Kissner was recently dismissed from his teaching position at our small mountain school district in northern CA. The charges were released via FOIA public records request and can be found here (pages 4-9 are the worst):

https://davidmichaelkissner.files.wordpress.com/2021/04/dismissal_charges.pdf

In summary... Mr. Kissner was dismissed after multiple charges of providing alcohol to minors, potential grooming behavior, and telling stories of death, dying, mutilation and bodies being blown up to his math class.

Mr. Kissner is a staunch Christian Conservative culture-warrior, and has convinced the law firm “Freedom X” to battle our public school over his dismissal. The Freedom X website has to be seen to be believed:
https://freedomxlaw.com

We are a tiny mountain school district in northern CA with a very small budget. Posting here is one way we are fighting back! We have a small administration - one superintendent and one principal for 500 students in both an elementary and a middle school. For the entire past year, our administration has been occupied with fighting legal attacks from Freedom X and David Kissner.

I truly hope the posts about this teacher on this forum stay active, and that any future employers of David Kissner will find the information linked above. David Kissner has been a total nightmare for our school.

Anyone want to make bets on who the teacher voted for last election? bitterross Mar 2018 #1
