Security guard at Chicago’s Farragut high school charged with sexually assaulting student
Accused of grooming and raping a Chicago Public Schools student, a senior security officer at Farragut Career Academy High School was arrested and charged with criminal sexual assault this week.
Campoverde remained in custody as of Thursday evening, according to the Cook County sheriff’s office website. His lawyer could not immediately be reached for comment. Judge Ankur Srivastava set Campoverde’s bond at $100,000 and ordered him to have no contact with the student, her family members or any juveniles and to undergo electronic monitoring if he is released on bond while awaiting trial.
The new accusations come after years of reckoning over what federal officials deemed in 2019 to be “appalling,” district-wide “failures” in CPS’ handling of sexual abuse allegations. After investigating more than 3,000 complaints filed over four years, involving 400 CPS schools, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights entered the district into a legally binding agreement, mandating reforms and federal monitoring through the end of the 2021-22 school year.
