Selma Unified spokesperson Jenna Perkovich said DeCarlo began working as a substitute maintenance worker for the district in December. Perkovich said the district conducted a background check as required and that DeCarlo had no prior arrests.
DeCarlo worked on an as-needed basis and was always paired with another maintenance worker, Perkovich said. Additionally, Perkovich said, maintenance workers don’t enter classrooms during instruction.
“The individual has been permanently removed from our substitute list and will not be eligible for any future employment with Selma Unified,” Perkovich said.
Anyone with information about the case can contact Detective Jovan Tamayo at 559-761-3659 or Valley Crime Stoppers at 559-498-7867.
