I am shocked having learned that Clifton High School, in Clifton, New Jersey even had an African-American principal., and that is simply because, Clifton, New Jersey is known to be a predominantly white/caucasian area.
But four months after the mother of two high school students filed civil lawsuits against the school district and Principal Jimmie Warren (pictured above), the embattled principle has now resigned from his job.
Warren’s lawyer Barry Kantrowitz said, his client’s departure as school principal is in no way an admission of guilt to the charges.
“He’s maintaining his innocence. He will continue to do that,” “Eventually, when someone has the opportunity to cross-examine the complainant, the truth will come out.” Kantrowitz said.
The suit, filed in U.S. District Court in Newark, claimed that Warren, 66, asked the woman to perform sexual acts in exchange for helping her children with school. The principal scheduled one of their meetings in a hotel room where he stripped down, the woman alleged.
In early December, the woman alleged that Warren exposed his private parts to her and touched her breasts during meetings to discuss her son.
The case is currently being held for grand jury review, which will determine whether to indict Warren and send him to trial, according to the Passaic County Prosecutor’s Office. No dates have been scheduled for a trial as of yet.
