Bell County Superintendent Accused Of Cover-Up

{London, Kentucky}...A federal lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in London last week claims Bell County Superintendent George Thompson failed to notify authorities, as required by law, about an alleged sexual assault of a third-grader by a former substitute teacher at Frakes Elementary School during the 2002-2003 school year. It also says Thompson helped remove documents that could have been used in a legal case against the teacher. Thompson says the teacher no longer works at Frakes. The lawsuit, seeking unspecified damages, was filed by Lexington attorney Daniel Luke Morgan.
