Lloyd Clark, 73, a substitute teacher is "speechless" that he was arrested after

ARREST AFFIDAVIT Feb 20 - An arrest affidavit obtained by 11 News reveals disturbing details about what a District 11 substitute teacher allegedly asked a student to do in a recorded phone conversation.
Documents say 73-year-old Lloyd Clark offered a 15-year-old boy as much as $5,000 to perform sexual acts. The first incident allegedly happened in a classroom at Wasson High School last Thursday. The student immediately contacted the school resource officer.
According to the arrest affidavit, detectives then set up a recorded phone conversation between the alleged victim and Clark. In the conversation, a detective says Clark reiterated the agreement he allegedly made with the student earlier that day.
Feb 27 - Clark, who remains free on $10,000 bail, was ordered to return to court April 23 for a possible disposition.
GUILTY PLEA & SENTENCING (Sorta) September 17 - Clark pleaded guilty to o a charge of misdemeanor harassment, unlawful conduct on public property, as part of an agreement with prosecutors. A felony charge of solicitation for child prostitution was dropped, court records show.
Fourth Judicial District Judge Gregory Werner sentenced Clark to one year of supervised probation, ordered him to relinquish his teaching certificate for a year and ordered that he have no contact with anyone younger than 18 years old except family members.
Clark was the second former teacher this week to be accused of felony sexual misconduct with a student, then to plead guilty to a non-sex-related misdemeanor. A former Lewis-Palmer Middle School teacher and girls basketball coach, Gregory Jackson, pleaded guilty to harassment Monday after being charged with felony sexual assault on a child.TT Entry for Jackson.
TT - Surely it is the responsiility of the Department of Education to impose sanctions on Clark's teaching certificate. Perhaps the judge didn't trust that they would do anything.
