NORWICH, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut high school has placed a third administrator on paid leave amid an investigation into a coach fired after he was charged with sexually assaulting two students.
Norwich Free Academy did not publicly identify the administrator placed on leave Thursday or give a reason for the suspension.
The Norwich Bulletin reports the suspension follows two suspensions Wednesday linked to charges against now-fired assistant football and track coach Anthony Facchini.
Facchini was charged in September with sexually assaulting two students in 2017, and police allege the school conducted only a cursory investigation into Facchini's alleged misconduct.
Facchini was fired last summer. He has pleaded not guilty and his attorney has previously declined to comment on the charges.
