Martin Zaretsky Death: Disgraced Bob Graham Ed. Center IT employee Martin Zaretsky has tragically died. The alleged paedophile was found dead from an apparent suicide Tuesday morning. According to law enforcement agencies, Martin Zaretsky passed away from a self-inflicted gunshot. He was an employee at the Miami-Dade Schools. In recent months, Martins was arrested on multiple child molestation charges, according to court documents.
Martin Zaretsky has been accused of committing seven acts of indecent and lascivious molestation against a minor. Martin Zaretsky, a staff member at Bob Graham Education Center, was apprehended on Monday for seven charges of indecent and sexually suggestive touching of a minor aged between 12 and 17. Additionally, he faces seven charges of misconduct towards children by individuals in positions of power, as indicated by data from Miami-Dade jail. A Miami Lakes school IT employee was apprehended on allegations of molestation and other offenses following his engagement in inappropriate interactions with several pupils, as reported by the police.
According to an arrest complaint, Zaretsky is said to have made attempts to establish a romantic relationship with multiple students and engaged in inappropriate and indecent contact on various occasions. According to the investigation, Zaretsky repeatedly caressed the victims’ breasts and buttocks over their clothing in a sexually inappropriate and offensive manner.
Additionally, the investigation stated that he illicitly messaged two of the victims on many occasions without obtaining parental authorization, with the intention of winning their favor and trust. Furthermore, he would remove children from their classrooms, allowing them to skip class without seeking permission from the school administration. Furthermore, according to the investigation, Zaretsky would escort his victims to his office after school, entice them with candy, and then accompany them back to the school gate. At this point, he would engage in inappropriate physical contact by hugging them.
The investigation alleges that he made sexual comments towards the pupils, including remarks such as “You look good today” and “You have a curvy body.” According to the report, Zaretsky inquired about their ages and informed them that he was younger than their fathers and appeared younger than he actually was. Zaretsky was apprehended by the police on Monday and declined to cooperate with an investigation prior to being incarcerated, according to the report. During Zaretsky’s hearing in bond court on Tuesday, a detective from the Miami-Dade County Public Schools Police stated that they have currently identified seven victims, aged between 12 and 14.
He was awarded a bond of $70,000, with the condition that he must refrain from going near the school and the individuals who have made the accusations. Miami-Dade County Public Schools said on Tuesday that they have initiated the termination procedure for Zaretsky, an employee with a 30-year tenure in the school district. “Miami-Dade County Public Schools is greatly concerned by the distressing accusations leveled against this individual.”
The Miami-Dade Schools Police promptly initiated an investigation and subsequently apprehended a suspect upon receiving information regarding their alleged misconduct, as said in the official announcement. “This behavior will not be accepted as it goes against the expected professional conduct from all employees.” The District has commenced employment termination proceedings and will guarantee that the individual is barred from obtaining future employment with the District.
Past attendees of Bob Graham Education Center expressed no astonishment upon discovering Zaretsky’s apprehension. According to Keily Sanchez, she was a member of the school’s dance squad and Zaretsky was frequently present. At a certain juncture, she expressed that they lodged a complaint with their coach. “He would enter the women’s restroom while we were changing, and he would consistently attend our dance practices without any clear justification,” Sanchez stated. “It was one of those moments where I finally realized that I despise the fact that it had to come to this.”
