NYC Hired Convicted Sex Offenders to Ref High School Games

The New York Post reports:
Two convicted sex offenders and scores of other felons and criminals were hired to referee city public high-school games without drawing notice for years, a never-made-public probe reveals

Remarkably, most of the rogue referees -- whose crimes included rape, sexual abuse of a 13-year-old girl, selling PCP and other felonies -- had been flagged as unemployable by the Department of Education, but were still hired to officiate because their status wasn't communicated internally.


Are you ready for ObamaCare? Great moments in public education.
