A lawsuit was filed this week on behalf of an underage girl against the San Dieguito Union High School District and a former employee who has been criminally charged with molesting the minor while he was employed at Diegueno Middle School in Encinitas.
Attorneys representing the girl allege school district officials missed"red flags" regarding Omar Galeana's behavior towards the girl, who was around 12 years old at the time. Galeana, 21, a former supervisor at the school, was arrested in March and charged with 12 felony crimes that include forcible lewd acts on a 12 year-old girl, as well as supplying cannabis to a 12 year old boy.329 medal events. 32 sports. Endless drama. Catch all the action at the Paris OlympicsThe lawsuit filed in San Diego Superior Court alleges Galeana molested the girl both on and off school premises.
In a statement, the school district said they had not yet received the lawsuit, but stated"when the allegations were brought to our attention last spring, we took immediate action to remove him from employment and work cooperatively with law enforcement so the facts could be gathered and justice may be served. Working with students of all ages is a profound privilege and our students must be treated with dignity and respect by those entrusted to work with them.
The victim's attorney, Morgan Stewart, said in a statement,"San Dieguito Union High School District ignored multiple 'red flags' regarding the behavior of Galeana that alerted, or should have alerted, SDUHSD to his inappropriate behavior and sexual abuse of children.
