“Educators have the responsibility to teach their students right from wrong, but this suspect didn’t seem to understand the difference himself,” said Sheriff Chad Chronister. “As parents, we place trust in teachers to not only educate our children with the skills and knowledge they’ll need in the future but also to be good role models for them. This suspect will face the consequences for his wrongful actions.”  

Anyone who believes they may be a victim of Rivera’s is urged to contact the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office by calling (813) 247-8200.
