A former Delone Catholic High School
teacher allegedly exchanged thousands of texts, which included explicit
messages and images, with a female student and gave the student
underwear while she was at school, according to police.
Gary
Jon Hatez Jr., 31, of the 300 block of Penn Street, Hanover, was
arrested and charged May 24 with two counts of sexual abuse of children,
unlawful contact with a minor, corruption of minors and criminal use of
a communication facility, according to a news release from the Adams
County District Attorney's Office.
Delone Catholic
High School officials contacted McSherrystown Borough Police Chief
Michael Woods on March 27 to inform him of alleged inappropriate contact
and communication between a 16-year-old student and Hatez, according to
an affidavit filed with District Judge Daniel Bowman.
School officials told Woods that when they confronted Hatez about the
allegations he admitted to purchasing and giving the student underwear
on school property. Officials also reported seeing unlawful texts and
pictures between Hatez and the student on the student's phone, the
affidavit states.
