A former elementary school teacher in Monmouth County who earlier this month was accused of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl is now facing charges of assaulting multiple schoolchildren, authorities said Saturday.
Gustavo Barrientos, 53, of Tinton Falls, was initially charged on Feb. 14 with aggravated sexual assault against the 10-year-old and endangering the welfare of a child for allegedly showing her pornography. On Saturday, prosecutors expanded the charges, saying Barrientos assaulted multiple children.
They did not release a specific number of alleged victims or provide any additional information about the circumstances that led to the new charges.
