00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:23.719
Hey everyone, and welcome back to Exposed Scandalous Files of
2
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:27.039
the Elite. I'm your host, Jim Chapman, and today we
3
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:32.799
are back with another episode of Bad Teachers, state specific series,
4
00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:37.240
and this time we're gonna go to Ohio. Now, last
5
00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:40.240
week I went to Georgia, and I told you the
6
00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:45.119
stories of six different teachers, with two of those cases
7
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.880
involving teachers who not only knew what each other was doing,
8
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:51.719
but they also were friends with each other. Now, in
9
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:54.679
the case of Georgia, I was disappointed in a couple
10
00:00:54.679 --> 00:00:59.600
of things. The lack of publicly available information was very
11
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:03.320
concerned learning you can disclose what's going on, y'all without
12
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:09.599
disclosing victims, and knowledge is power in these types of cases.
13
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.879
The sweeping under the rug is why this has now
14
00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:18.079
become pretty much an epidemic nationwide. The second concerning issue
15
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:21.599
about Georgia was the slow pace in which these cases
16
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:25.079
are getting resolution. One of those cases I covered was
17
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:29.480
from twenty twenty and still no resolution on that case.
18
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.680
So if the lack of details frustrated you, and you're
19
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:38.480
much like me and that shit just pisses you off,
20
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:40.280
I can assure you that's not going to be the
21
00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:43.680
case with the first subject that I cover today. We're
22
00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:46.920
going to Ohio, and before we do, I want to
23
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.640
give you a warning. Now, what I'm about to cover
24
00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:53.760
is very descriptive. It's very detailed. So if it's something
25
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:56.280
you would rather not hear, go ahead and turn this
26
00:01:56.439 --> 00:02:00.319
podcast off. Now, if you're someone that wants to straight
27
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.920
up facts and you realize this is real life. It
28
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:07.959
happens unfortunately every day, and the more people that see
29
00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:12.039
how messed up this problem has become, the better off
30
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:15.599
we are as a society. Well, keep listening because this
31
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:19.439
one's gonna shock you. Now. This first story is going
32
00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:24.319
to bring us to Gallipolice, Ohio, where a cheerleading coach
33
00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:28.879
and a former substitute teacher named Paige Huck was arrested
34
00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:35.560
in twenty twenty three for having inappropriate relationships involving multiple students.
35
00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:41.120
This was between about a decade time period starting around
36
00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:45.039
two thousand and four, and these assaults were allegedly in
37
00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:49.520
cooperation with her husband, Matthew Huck. Her husband was the
38
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:53.919
head wrestling coach at River Valley High School even beyond
39
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:56.599
her arrest, and we'll get into that now. This is
40
00:02:56.680 --> 00:03:00.759
most certainly the most shocking case of bad teachers I
41
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.879
have covered thus far, So get ready and let's get
42
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:07.319
into it. And I'm going to start by giving you
43
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.919
what little bit of background on page Huck that I
44
00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:15.240
have not much as out there regarding her background prior
45
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:20.120
to getting married. But somewhere around nineteen ninety nine, she
46
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:24.000
marries ag teacher and high school wrestling coach by the
47
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:28.319
name of Matthew Huck. Now. Also around that time, in
48
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:32.120
nineteen ninety nine, which incidentally, she's in her early twenties,
49
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:35.800
she decides she's going to start substituting at the school,
50
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:38.319
which she does, and it was during that time as
51
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:40.919
well that she takes on the role of the cheerleading
52
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:44.680
coach and kind of an advisor for that cheerleading team,
53
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:48.039
and she and her husband they would host a lot
54
00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:51.159
of events and get togethers at their house for the
55
00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:55.520
cheer squad and the wrestling squad primarily remember he's the
56
00:03:55.560 --> 00:03:59.719
head wrestling coach. Now, these events would include locke in.
57
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:04.199
They would have teams sleepovers, which, as we'll get into,
58
00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:07.759
some of these events were co ed, which I mean
59
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:11.639
you got the wrestling team and the cheer team sleeping
60
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:15.120
in the same house together. I mean, nothing bad can happen, right,
61
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:18.920
come on, So this continues for several years and there's
62
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:24.519
no documented allegations of anything improper, documented being the keyword.
63
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:28.519
But then shit hits the fan. Now, rather than take
64
00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:31.720
you through the entire timelining, I'm gonna skip forward all
65
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:34.720
the way to August of twenty twenty three and Paige
66
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:38.839
Huck gets indicted and arrested. At the time, she was
67
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:43.720
indicted for six counts of sexual conduct with minors involving
68
00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:51.439
multiple wrestlers ages thirteen to sixteen over a thirteen year period. Now,
69
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:54.959
I know some of you listen to the Bad Teacher
70
00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:57.120
series and you say, well, it was a seventeen year
71
00:04:57.160 --> 00:04:59.240
old guy. He was a senior in high school, and
72
00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:03.839
it's not really that. How about thirteen? How's that for bad? So,
73
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:08.000
according to the probable cause AFFI David, investigators were able
74
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:12.160
to uncover just a pattern of abuse that was rampant,
75
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:15.879
where she exploited her role as a substitute teacher and
76
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:20.720
a cheerleading coach to abuse at that time for students,
77
00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:25.199
though more would be uncovered later with the acts occurring
78
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:28.800
in vehicles, they would occur at those home events I
79
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:33.000
told you about primarily those were the places. Now, the
80
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:37.199
investigation would also uncover the fact that the school had
81
00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:42.839
allegedly been receiving complaints buckle up for this, receiving complaints
82
00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:46.319
about Page huck and this sexual abuse dating all the
83
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:49.759
way back to two thousand and four, and did not
84
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:54.279
report it. Can you believe that this investigation would also
85
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:58.240
lead police to discover she had been banned from the campus,
86
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:03.399
were banned from the Kingpampus regarding the allegations in twenty eleven,
87
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:08.160
then again in twenty sixteen, and then again in twenty nineteen.
88
00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:12.360
But the investigation would say that these bands were not enforced,
89
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:16.720
and school officials who were told about this did nothing
90
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:21.680
in their roles as mandated reporters to report the allegations.
91
00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:25.920
We talked about that before. A mandated reporter is someone
92
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:30.199
like another teacher that hears that her fellow teacher is
93
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:32.680
having sex with a student and she doesn't tell anybody.
94
00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:36.439
You are mandated, You are obligated by law to report that.
95
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:40.839
So when August of twenty twenty three, Page gets arrested,
96
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:44.920
she goes to court, she enters a plea of not guilty,
97
00:06:45.319 --> 00:06:49.519
She postponded, and she is released Penning trial. You with
98
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:52.560
me so far, Now, a couple of things to point
99
00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:56.000
out before we go any further. First, at the time
100
00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:58.959
of her arrest in twenty twenty three, Page and her
101
00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:04.040
husband have been divorced about three years, Matthew Huck. They'd
102
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:08.040
been divorced since around twenty twenty, So, as you can imagine,
103
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:11.920
all this comes out and I would love to tell
104
00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.360
you it shocked the whole community, but the truth is,
105
00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:20.720
I can't why, because when I researched this case, I
106
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:25.800
came across some original news articles that were posted on Facebook,
107
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:29.839
and it seemed that everyone knew this was going on
108
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:33.759
and had been going on. The Facebook comments underneath the
109
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:39.839
post were shocking. Everyone knew, everyone had told whoever would listen,
110
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:45.639
it appears, allegedly, and no one did anything. But I
111
00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:50.639
don't think the whole community knew exactly what was going on,
112
00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:57.279
exactly how disturbing it was. But they would find out
113
00:07:57.519 --> 00:08:02.680
when on November twentieth of three, just three months after
114
00:08:02.759 --> 00:08:07.519
the arrest of Page Huck, a lawsuit drops in federal court.
115
00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:12.600
And let me tell you, I have covered hundreds of
116
00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:18.319
lawsuits unexposed this one. I don't think I've ever seen
117
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:23.199
anything more detailed, So let's get into it. And the
118
00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:28.079
lawsuit is suing several people, including River Valley High School,
119
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:32.279
the superintendent of schools, the principal of schools, Page Huck,
120
00:08:32.799 --> 00:08:37.759
and her wrestling coach husband, Matthew Huck. They're all included
121
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:41.360
in this lawsuit. And I'm going to read you the
122
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:44.679
factual allegations because I have the lawsuit right here in
123
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:47.360
front of me, and it starts off. Page Huck was
124
00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:51.840
hired by River Valley High School as a freshman cheerleading
125
00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:56.639
coach advisor in nineteen ninety nine. She continued at various positions,
126
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:01.600
including but not limited to JV cheerleading coach, varsity cheerleading coach,
127
00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:05.679
and substitute teacher at River Valley High School until two
128
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:08.440
thousand and eight. Paige Huck at all relevant times here
129
00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:12.480
in was the spouse of River Valley High School wrestling
130
00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:15.879
coaching teacher, Coach Huck. Paygechuck and Coach Huck divorced on
131
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:20.240
or about January fourteenth, twenty twenty, after Plainoff graduated from
132
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:22.679
high school, and plaintiff is the victim who brought the
133
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:25.360
suit in this case. Goes on to say Page Huck
134
00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:29.000
and Coach Huck would frequently host parties, sleepovers, and lock
135
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:32.480
ins at their private residence, which typically included members of
136
00:09:32.519 --> 00:09:37.200
the cheerleading squad, football team, wrestling team, and FFA organization.
137
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:41.039
In November of two thousand and four, the Hucks hosted
138
00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:46.159
a lock in for RVHS cheerleaders and wrestlers at their
139
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:51.440
private residence. At this lock in, the Hucks played pornography
140
00:09:51.799 --> 00:09:54.399
for the students on the TV in the living room.
141
00:09:54.720 --> 00:10:00.000
In addition, Paigehuck engaged in sexual intercourse with numerous male students.
142
00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:04.240
Male students stood in line and took turns having sex
143
00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:07.720
with Paige Huck in the bedroom while Coach Huck stood
144
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:12.480
next to them and watched the sexual activity. Y'all, she
145
00:10:12.600 --> 00:10:15.480
had a train ran on her with a bunch of
146
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:18.600
high school kids while her husband watched. You can't make
147
00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:22.080
that shit up. Three cheerleaders who witness the above described
148
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:26.080
events immediately reported what they saw to Principal Jacobs the
149
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:30.159
next school day. They specifically told him about the pornography,
150
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:34.519
Paige Huck having sex with students, and Coach Huck watching
151
00:10:34.639 --> 00:10:38.639
all of this. Principal Jacobs simply said, quote, I'll look
152
00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:42.600
into it. These cheerleaders were never contacted again regarding what
153
00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:46.879
they reported to Principal Jacobs. No investigation or report of
154
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:50.879
Coach Huck or Page Huck's misconduct was performed by defendant
155
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:54.480
BOE or its employees, which is the school. Following this
156
00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:58.720
report to Principal Jacobs, the cheerleaders were harassed by multiple
157
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:02.799
RVHS staff members, including Paige Huck, prompting one to quit
158
00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:07.320
cheerleading all together. And that's important, y'all, because that's why
159
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:10.360
this shit don't get reported anymore. As we go along,
160
00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:12.960
you're going to say, how did they not tell the
161
00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:15.720
school about this? Well, look what happened when someone did?
162
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:18.799
You think that didn't get around the school rather quickly.
163
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:23.559
This fact indicates that Principal Jacob failed to properly protect
164
00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:27.159
the identity of the witnesses who reported the inappropriate behavior,
165
00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:32.279
subjected them to harassment and discouragement of any future witnesses
166
00:11:32.320 --> 00:11:34.679
from being honest and forthright about what they saw the
167
00:11:34.759 --> 00:11:38.320
Hucks doing with students. The report to Principal Jacobs is
168
00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:41.320
not even noted in the personnel file of Paige Huck
169
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:43.960
or Coach Huck. In two thousand and four, the Hucks
170
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.919
hosted a gathering at their home where minor students engaged
171
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:50.320
in drinking alcohol and smoking. There were many wrestlers and
172
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:53.799
football players present in addition to the cheerleaders. Most of
173
00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:58.720
them were juniors and seniors. Victim A, a then sixteen year
174
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:02.080
old student at our VHS, attended this gathering at the
175
00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:05.519
Huck's home as she was on the cheerleading squad. During
176
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:08.240
the gathering, Victim Ay was lying on the floor when
177
00:12:08.360 --> 00:12:11.600
Paigehuck and Coach Huck came in and laid beside her.
178
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:14.759
Coach Huck put his hand down the shirt of Victim Ay.
179
00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:18.679
She froze up and pretended to be asleep. Paigehuck then
180
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:22.399
asked Coach Chuck quote, is she asleep? Coach Chuck proceeded
181
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.039
to put his hands down the pants of Victim Ay
182
00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:29.559
and began touching her vagina. Victim A continued to be asleep,
183
00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:33.200
but then got up from the encounter, crying and heading
184
00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:36.080
to the bathroom. Victim Ay asked a friend to take
185
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:38.799
her home, and during the drive, the friend told Victim
186
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:42.480
Ay the same type of assault happened to her at
187
00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:44.720
the hands of the Hucks. Victim Ay went to see
188
00:12:44.759 --> 00:12:48.279
the guidance counselor our VHS to report the coach Huck
189
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:51.559
had touched her. The assistant principal at the time, Principal
190
00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:55.600
more overhard what Victim A reported about Coach Huck. Principal
191
00:12:55.639 --> 00:12:59.720
more then intervened, grabbed Victim Ay by the shoulders and
192
00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:02.799
said we can talk about this later. Victim Ay was
193
00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:06.919
never approached by anyone, including Principal more to further discuss
194
00:13:06.960 --> 00:13:10.960
this report of sexual assault. Victim Ay later learned from
195
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:14.480
younger students that Coach Huck was bragging about his assault
196
00:13:14.600 --> 00:13:18.399
of Victim Ay. Defendants took no action to investigate or
197
00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:21.639
report the complaint made by Victim Ay. Then it goes
198
00:13:21.679 --> 00:13:24.840
into victims B, C and D. Paige Huck had sexual
199
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:27.240
contact during the two thousand and five two thousand and
200
00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:30.399
six school year with victim B, then a seventeen year
201
00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:34.360
old senior wrestler at our VHS. The sexual contact happened
202
00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:36.960
on at least two occasions during two thousand and five
203
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:40.000
two thousand and six school year, prior to victim B's
204
00:13:40.120 --> 00:13:44.240
graduation from high school. The incidents of sexual contact occurred
205
00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:47.759
during the end of season wrestling sleepover at a separate
206
00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:51.960
party with underage students and alcohol, both held at the
207
00:13:52.039 --> 00:13:55.080
Huck residence. Paige Huck was employed by the school at
208
00:13:55.080 --> 00:13:58.919
the time of the sexual conduct with Victim B as
209
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:02.960
a cheerleading coach at RVHS. Coach Huck was president of
210
00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:06.080
the home when Victim B had sex with Paigehuck and
211
00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:09.240
was aware of the sexual activity between his wife and
212
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:15.120
the wrestlers slash student, even facilitating such sexual activity in
213
00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:18.759
the Huck's bedroom. Payehuck had sexual contact with Victim C,
214
00:14:19.159 --> 00:14:23.960
another wrestler who was thirteen years old at the time
215
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:28.080
that these sexual encounters began. Victim C was a middle
216
00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:31.240
schooler but was invited by Coach Chuck to practice with
217
00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:35.480
the high school wrestling team. Sexual encounters with Paigehuck continued
218
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:38.799
on several occasions between two thousand and three and two
219
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:42.200
thousand and eight. Paychuck was employed by the school at
220
00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:47.480
the time as RVHS cheerleading coach and substitute teacher. The
221
00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:51.879
first sexual contact with Victim C occurred when Paychuck performed
222
00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:55.440
oral sex on Victim C. Remember thirteen years old, y'all,
223
00:14:55.759 --> 00:14:57.919
in the Hucks van on the way home from a
224
00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:01.960
wrestling meet held at another s. Coach Huck was driving
225
00:15:02.039 --> 00:15:05.720
the van and three other students were also in the
226
00:15:05.840 --> 00:15:09.879
van at the time. Sexual encounters continued through Victim C's
227
00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:13.320
high school years while he was a wrestler at our VHS.
228
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:17.120
These activities occurred in the Huck's residence, the Hucks van
229
00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:20.600
and often involved the use of alcohol and prescription drugs,
230
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.600
sometimes provided by the Hucks. On another occasion, Paigehuck had
231
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:29.240
sexual contact with Victim C and another unidentified minor student
232
00:15:29.320 --> 00:15:33.559
at the same time at the Huck residence, a freaking
233
00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:38.559
threesome with two underage kids. Victim C had dozens of
234
00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:41.960
sexual encounters with Payehuck through his middle school and high
235
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:45.759
school years. On several occasions, Coach Huck was home while
236
00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:49.000
Victim C was having sex with Paige Huck at the
237
00:15:49.120 --> 00:15:52.240
Huck home. On more than one occasion, Victim C saw
238
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:55.799
Coach Huck watching him have sex of Payechhuck through an
239
00:15:55.879 --> 00:16:00.000
open bedroom door, also during the two thousand and seven.
240
00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:03.000
In two thousand and eight school year, Paychuck was involved
241
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:07.080
in a sexual incident with another RBHS athlete, Victim D.
242
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:10.679
While she was employed at the school as the RVHS
243
00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:14.879
