A Christian school kindergarten teacher in the Chicago suburbs is facing charges related to sexual assault and child pornography after investigators say that she sent explicit material to minors for years.
Shannon Griffin is the wife of the pastor of Jordan Baptist Church and is a teacher at the associated Jordan Baptist school in Oak Lawn, a suburb of Chicago.
She is now facing five counts of criminal sexual assault, one count solicitation of child pornography, one count of distribution of harmful materials, and one count of grooming, which the Cook County Sheriffs Office says come from her alleged sexual molestation of one underage student at the school and sending nude photos and videos of herself to that student and another one.
A months-long investigation found that Griffin sent nude pictures and videos of herself to and requested nude pictures from the minor and another juvenile victim, also enrolled at the school, said Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart in a statement. They believe that the molestation started in 2013 and continued until earlier this year.

(36,354 posts)"Mollos two children went to the school, and his family belonged to the church.
The second I saw that video, the very next day, I pulled my kids out of that school, and we stopped going to church there immediately, he said.
He said explicit images of Griffin began circulating among students. Photos were provided to CBS 2 by an adult.
Mollo said he went to police and confronted his pastor, Griffins husband.
I called the pastor, and I said to him, You better get in front of this. I said, All these kids are passing videos around of your wife. And he said, Its not my wife. Its not her. Were just going to pray about it. Let the lord take care of us,' Mollo said. "
