Jonathan LeRay Eure, 36, of Salisbury, Maryland.
36 year old Jonathan LeRay Eure was arrested Tuesday morning after a grand jury indicted him on ten charges including sex abuse of a minor, perverted practice and fourth-degree sex offense. The contact between Eure and a student is alleged to have happened multiple times.
According to a statement released by the school district, Eure had been an employee at the Parkside High School but had been on administrative leave for the duration of the investigation.
Yesterday morning, Donna Hanlin, the Superintendent of Wicomico County Public Schools, released a statement.
"This morning we were notified by the State’s Attorney’s Office that Jonathan Eure, an instructional assistant at Parkside High School, has been arrested on numerous charges allegedly involving a minor, who was a former student. Eure had previously been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the criminal investigation.
