Case files in a civil complaint against the Moore County Board of Education, unsealed Friday, allege that a culture of sexual impropriety among Pinecrest administrators and staff enabled a school resource officer to engage a student in sexual activity during her sophomore and junior years.
That student is the plaintiff in a case known as âL.P. v. Moore County Board of Education,â which was filed in Moore County Superior Court earlier this year. The school board voted on Nov. 30 to pay a $200,000 settlement in that case.
Case files and related documentation were sealed from view of the public after a joint motion by the school district and the plaintiff on Sept. 18. The order to seal that case expired on Dec. 18.
