Hes been arrested for allegedly having sex with a 14yearold student but hes still on the run after a federal judge in florida released him. News4s Mark Segraves broke this story on twitter. Alan coleman was supposed to be extradited last month but thats not happened and two months after his arrest hes still in florida out on bond. Alan coleman was arrested in gainesville, florida, last month. He was wanted by d. C. Police for having sex with a 14yearold girl who was hisc student at a acam me in southeast. Police records told Police Coleman would have him dress up in a purple wig and schoolgirl outfit and take pictures of her and have sex with her. A search warrant shows that coleman continued to have a sexual relationship with the teen for five years. He left his job at kipp d. C. Shortly after he started having sex with her. Both schools notified parents of the allegations after coleman was arrested last month. In a letter to parents, the founder of kipp academy says they are cooperating with the police investigation. The Charter School principal told parents once they learned of the allegation, coleman was suspended and then fired. Theres no indication that there were any victims at the capital city Charter School. After being fired from his school in d. C. , coleman moved to gainesville, flori worked as a High School Teacher and tennis coach. He was placed on leave from that job after his arrest last month. He was to be extradited to face the charges but a federal judge in florida released him. Now, according to Court Records from florida, the judge released coleman on a 50,000 bond and hes required to wear a monitoring device but it remains unclear when hell have to return to face the charges in d. C. Because the judge hasnt set a hearing date. So until that happens and when coleman is notified of that date, he can remain free on bond. This is unbelievable. How was he getting hired if the allegations date back to 04 . Because even until today, he has a clean police record. Hes only been charged and arrested. He hasnt even had his First Court Hearing and even if i ran the database, it comes up as a clean record because he hasnt been convicted. If you did a background check on him, he would come back clean. Mark, thank you for bringing us that story.
