CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Over several decades, former faculty and staff at a prep school are accused of singling out students, plying them with alcohol and then attempting to kiss, fondle and commit other acts of sexual misconduct with them, according to a report released by the school late Wednesday.
The allegations are part of an ongoing investigation by St. Paul's School into its history of sexual abuse, and the focus of an investigation by the New Hampshire Attorney General's Office.
In May, St. Paul's first reported detailed allegations against a dozen men and one woman who worked at the school between 1947 and 1999. An addendum released late Wednesday includes details from unnamed former students against five additional staff members, with allegations of abuse that happened as late as 2009.
