The Mexico City Attorney General\u2019s Office currently has an active arrest warrant against Francisco \u201cN,\u201d a teacher at La Salle preparatory school\u2019s Benjam\u00edn Franklin campus, who is under investigation for qualified sexual abuse against adolescent students. <\/p>\n
According to investigation file CI-FIDCANNA\/E\/UI-E-11\/00518\/11-2024, the educator, with over 30 years at the institution, is accused of alleged abuses occurring at various times both inside and outside the school environment, including locations linked to the Lasallian congregation. <\/p>\n
The inquiry reveals that Francisco \u201cN,\u201d also known as Paco Pachangas, served not only as a teacher but also as a mentor for students facing family difficulties. This role allowed him close contact with students beyond school grounds under the pretext of support and guidance activities. <\/p>\n
Paco Pachangas was a well-known figure within the student community. Beyond teaching, he participated in student development and follow-up activities, maintaining frequent contact with students outside the classroom. <\/p>\n
One documented case in the investigation dates back to April 2009, when a 16-year-old student was taken from the campus in the Condesa neighborhood to one of the so-called Houses of the Lasallian brothers\u2014properties used by the congregation as recreational and social spaces. <\/p>\n
In his ministerial statement, the student described being transported in a private vehicle and, upon arrival, being shown around the property before being led to a room where sexual acts allegedly took place. Afterward, the student returned to the campus with the teacher, who reportedly made comments suggesting he could influence the student\u2019s grades\u2014details included in the investigation file. <\/p>\n
The case file also indicates that the teacher maintained contact with the student through electronic means afterward, and other students reportedly identified inappropriate behavior and messages on social media. <\/p>\n
The investigation suggests this may not be an isolated incident. The complainant stated that over the years, other former students shared similar experiences involving the teacher. While these claims require verification by authorities, they are part of the context being analyzed to determine the scope of the accusations and whether more victims exist. <\/p>\n
Testimonies included in the file mention that rumors about the teacher\u2019s behavior circulated among students from different generations. The Attorney General\u2019s Office must establish if there are additional complaints or individuals who can provide relevant information. <\/p>\n
Some students reported that the teacher\u2019s conduct was known within the school community, although immediate institutional measures were not taken at the time. Several students sought support from school staff after learning about or experiencing situations related to the teacher. Testimonies indicate that school administrators and student support personnel were informed of various allegations, but complainants consider the responses insufficient. <\/p>\n
A key aspect the investigation must clarify is what information school authorities had and what actions were taken after receiving reports about the teacher\u2019s conduct. So far, no judicial decision has been made regarding possible institutional responsibility. <\/p>\n
This case highlights ongoing challenges in protecting students and ensuring accountability within educational institutions, emphasizing the importance of transparent and effective responses to allegations of abuse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
