Ultra-sicko teacher previously charged with sexually abusing a girl was arrested for grabbing and video recording his 11-year-old students

How anyone with a record of being charged twice for criminal sexual assault can get a job as a teacher working directly with young girls he was once accussed of molesting is beyond reason. Whoever hired him should be charged with criminal negligence for endangering children.

Pacific Daily News -- June 9, 2009

A D.L. Perez Elementary School teacher arrested for allegedly touching and videotaping his students inappropriately is being held on $50,000 bail.

Frederick Emerson Fernsler, 55, appeared in the Superior Court of Guam on Saturday. He was charged with:

• Second-degree criminal sexual conduct as a first-degree felony;

• Child abuse as a misdemeanor;

• andOfficial misconduct as a misdemeanor.

According to the magistrate's complaint against Fernsler, when an 11-year-old female student bent over in class, Fernsler allegedly "grabbed her hips from behind and started thrusting his pelvis against her buttocks."

The report makes no mention of cameras Fernsler allegedly hid in his classroom -- where students would change clothing. Police found the cameras May 21, according to a GPD news release issued last week.

Office of the Attorney General spokesman Eric Palacios said yesterday more charges may be filed against Fernsler. Mae Blas, public information officer for the U.S. Attorney's Office, said no federal charges had been filed against Fernsler, but she couldn't comment on pending cases.
