Wilton teacher and college adjunct charged with sex assault

A Wilton Public Schools teacher and Sacred Heart University instructor was charged Wednesday with sexually assaulting a 14-year-old boy in a movie theater parking lot.

Timothy Leonard, 37, was arrested after cops found him parked Tuesday in a dark and secluded part of the Trumbull Cinemas lot with the underage boy.

Leonard, a Southbury resident, told police he met the boy through an app for gay and bi-curious hookups.

Leonard was stripped of both teaching jobs Wednesday after he was charged with fourth-degree sexual assault and risk of injury to a minor.

"The university takes all reasonable precautions to protect our students and at this time we have no knowledge of any inappropriate behavior by Mr. Leonard with any of our students," said Funda Alp, spokeswoman for the university. Leonard was hired by Sacred Heart in 2008, she said.

Trumbull police stumbled upon his black Jeep Cherokee around 7:30 p.m. in the theater's lot on Quarry Road, where it was sitting in a secluded area, according to a news release sent by Lt. Leonard Scinto, Trumbull Police Department spokesman.

When an officer approached Leonard, he and his young male passenger seemed nervous, police said.

The passenger initially told the officer he was 18, but appeared much younger, and was, in fact, a 14-year-old Trumbull resident, Scinto said.

"During the course of speaking to the pair, it was determined that they had engaged in intimate contact while parked in the vehicle," Scinto said.

Leonard told police that he met the victim through Grindr, an online dating app.

He also said he likes college-aged males, stating "that's my thing," according to police.

He denied knowing the passenger in his car was only 14, and said he'd never have gotten involved with him if he knew the boy was underage.

Wilton Superintendent of Schools Kevin J. Smith, in an afternoon letter posted to the district website, called the news an incredible shock to the entire school community.

"If the allegations are true, Dr. Leonard violated the trust of all in the Wilton Public Schools and throughout our community," Smith said.

Leonard was suspended pending an investigation and Smith said the district is cooperating fully with police.

He added that the school's mental health staff has been mobilized to create a support plan for students, families and staff members.

An online search also revealed that Leonard had worked with students at Harding High Schoolin Bridgeport through a poetry program at Sacred Heart University.

Detroit ‘Walking Man’ Who Was Given A Car & Donations, Now Fears For His Life James Robertson’s story went viral as soon as the first reporter submitted the story. He’s the 56-year-old Black man who walks 21 miles five days a week to get to work. The response to this viral tear-jerker was a windfall of donations to help Robertson get a brand new car. The crowdfunding account has made it up to over $350,000 in donations, but instead of celebrating this uplifting news, we’re shaking our heads because Robertson now fears for his life, as he’s been threatened.

Robertson said he’s thankful for the outpouring of support, but he’s not exactly loving the publicity. He’s been living in a boarding house and on Feb 10, he contacted the police after receiving threats and they helped him move to a temporary residence. Roberston’s fears were brought on not only by threats, but the death of fellow Detroit resident, Arthur Neal, who claimed to have won $20,000 in a lottery and was found stabbed to death on Feb 1.

Robertson wants to move closer to work and into the suburbs, which means that he’s going to have to say goodbye to Detroit.  “It’ll be hard to leave the city that I love,” he tells local news. Sadly, Robertson still walks a majority of places. When he’s not driving to and from work, he’s got to leave his shiny new ride in police custody to keep it from being vandalized or stolen. SMH.

What a terrible way for James Robertson to live–he’s gotten the help he needs but can’t enjoy it because people lack humanity.
