"A Lynn Public Schools teacher is suing her employer, alleging district officials failed to take prompt action after she reported that she had been drugged and sexually assaulted by a male colleague. In a May 7 lawsuit filed in Essex Superior Court, the teacher said school officials were slow to investigate the complaint and allowed the alleged assailant to continue working in the same building as her at Lynn Vocational Technical Institute. Boston.com is not naming the man because he has not been criminally charged in connection with the case."
"According to the lawsuit, the Lynn teacher spoke with her alleged attacker in December 2024 about filing a union grievance after a student with behavioral issues left her with a broken rib. She ultimately went on medical leave, and the male colleague came to her home in April 2025 to assist her with filing the grievance. He allegedly arrived in the evening and asked if he could make himself a drink, then fixed alcoholic beverages for both of them. The teacher said she took one sip and remembered nothing else until she awoke around 3 a.m., naked and facedown in bed with the alleged assailant standing nude beside her and demanding oral sex."
"When she refused, the man allegedly sexually assaulted her and said he would be "coming around here a lot more," so she would "have to learn" how to perform various sex acts, the lawsuit states. She blacked out again, waking the next morning to find the alleged assailant had texted her a heart emoji while she was unconscious, according to the complaint. Days later, he allegedly dropped off flowers and a card that said he was "sorry" and "thinking about [her].""
"An at-home testing kit revealed the drink he made for her contained Rohypnol, GHB, and ketamine, according to the lawsuit, and the teacher reported the incident to Nahant police in"
A Lynn Public Schools teacher filed a lawsuit claiming district officials failed to respond promptly after she reported that she was drugged and sexually assaulted by a male colleague. The complaint says the investigation was slow and the alleged assailant remained working in the same building at Lynn Vocational Technical Institute. The teacher reported that after a December 2024 incident involving a student and a broken rib, she went on medical leave and the colleague later came to her home to help file a union grievance. She alleges he prepared alcoholic drinks, she took one sip, then blacked out and woke around 3 a.m. naked with the colleague demanding oral sex. She refused, was assaulted, and later found texts and gifts. An at-home testing kit allegedly indicated Rohypnol, GHB, and ketamine in the drink, and she reported the incident to police.
