These things never end well, not even in the Wild Things, which is never on the PBS, even though it says Wild Things on the schedule

From the AP:

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J.: A popular Colonia High School teacher who coached the girls varsity soccer team was indicted yesterday on charges he exchanged sexually suggestive text messages with a 17-year-old female student and tried to cover up the alleged crime.

A Middlesex County grand jury charged Michael Petak, 30, with official misconduct, two counts of witness tampering and a count of attempting to destroy evidence by erasing copies of text messages recorded on his cell phone.

The grand jury accused Petak of having inappropriate sexual conversations with the 17-year-old student and, over the summer, attempting to convince her and an unidentified acquaintance to destroy copies of his text messages.

Petak, who is married and the father of a young child, was suspended from teaching after he was arrested and charged in September. He has pleaded not guilty and remains free on bail. No trial date has been set.
