Frank Laine Hall Honored as One of Best Teachers in Utah Guilty of Sexually Abusing 11 Students
Another teacher busted for using their job as their own sexual playground
They may want to take back the Huntsman Award for Excellence in Education from 2006 honoring 37 year old Frank Laine Hall as one of the best teachers. It would appear that Frank Hall was doing just a bit more than reading, writing and arithmetic with his students. Frank Laine Hall, a former first grade teacher at Rosamond Elementary school in Riverton pleaded guilty to sexually abusing 11 students in a plea agreement that dismissed five other counts of aggravated sex abuse of a child. You heard that correct, a first grade teacher.
Frank Laine Hall could get up to 30 years and would have to register as a sex offender. I wonder if Hall would be considered to attractive to serve time in jail if he was say … a woman like Debra Lafave? There is a reason why none of these teacher/student sexual abuse cases should ever be taken lightly.
Hall pleaded guilty to 10 counts of attempted aggravated sex abuse of a child and one count of sex abuse of a child in a plea agreement that dismissed five other counts of aggravated sex abuse of a child, Ybarra said.
The agreement will ensure that he must register as a sex offender for life, Ybarra said.
In court Thursday, Hall admitted he touched the students inappropriately, Ybarra said.
Hall was accused of putting his hand inside the pants of three girls at Rosamond Elementary School in Riverton. Then eight other students came forward with similar accounts, Ybarra said. (Fox News)
Hall pleads guilty; former Huntsman Award winner strikes plea deal
Hall admitted touching the genitals and buttocks of children for his own sexual desires and taking “indecent liberties” with one. The crimes occurred at different times between 2004 and 2006.

hang ‘em high.

Disgusting piece of trash, makes you wonder if there weren’t even more children involved, I wonder why it took so long to catch this pervert. You mean the heads of administration never had a clue!!!
Look at his face:
The left side is what he wants to be;
the right is what he is.
And, the space between
is all scrambled.
Telling…
He kinda looks like John Boy Walton…
If JB had a woogie eye,
and very bad allergies.
Goober Alert!
I hope that cut his wang off! DAMN!!
Innocent children in the 1st grade, what did he say to them, this is part of learning in school, parents tell their children to obey they teachers, and they should, but what happens why your told to obey your teacher and he is a pervert…..they’re first real experience in school…I hope these children can recover the experience…!!! But your guilty of those that were subject to your sexual abuse…what kind of damage has been done..!
The ultimate penalty should be applied….we don’t want you in neighborhoods, we don’t want you in our society!!! No rehab for you, take you punishment with the harden criminals!!!!
He looks like a Vulcan.
I’m sure the guys in jail will take good care of him!!
Unless it is to protect children from the trauma of testimony, how can you possibly have a plea agreement for crimes like these?
bizarre, to say the least.
Please, please and please do NOT let him get a judge with a soft touch on sentencing(like the kind highlighted often on O’Reilly). He needs to stay out of society for the rest of his natural life.
Put him in a cell with a prisoner similar to Lector Hannibal…that’ll do it!!!
Good reason to give guilty sex offenders the death penalty. He crossed a line he will never be able to return from.
Public schools should post classroom curriculum on a wesite for parent tro teach their kids at home if they so desire. The parent can monitor the child’s work and enter the progress into the computer. Homework can be submitted online. The school district’s still get our tax money (not like we have a choice in paying, we should have some choices in what and how they offer our kid’s in an education) no overcrowding, no bond issues. With pervert teachers, teacher shortages and nutjobs shooting schools up, we should have a choice as to whether we want our kids their, after taxes who can afford private schools, not that their are no perverts or nutjobs ruining those too. Put public classroom curriculum online.
I attended Rosamond Elementary the same years this guy prowled around there. I even remember him when I attended the 1st grade, he was one of the teachers in the same hallway. I also remember seeing him on numerous occasions, more often then not passing him in the hallways. Seems like such a long time ago now, best be left forgotten like all the other trash.
