The parents of a child who was allegedly sexually abused by a custodian at a Spanish Fork elementary school are suing the school district and the school’s principal and psychologist, claiming officials hid the accusations from them and, as a result, their child was subjected to ongoing trauma.
The lawsuit stems from allegations against 61-year-old Adrian Villar, who has pleaded not guilty to two first-degree felony counts of aggravated child abuse and class A misdemeanor lewdness involving a child.
The charges allege that in February 2017, Villar, a custodian at Sierra Bonita Elementary School, was alone with a boy in the school’s bathroom, and pulled down his own pants.
