KRIS also said the Hamlin Middle School social studies teacher was accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a student.
Corpus Christi ISD Police Chief Kirby Warnke told KRIS news that no additional information has or can be released because it is an ongoing investigation.
Anthony Quintanilla’s bond has been set at $300,000.
Update at 8:35 p.m., Oct. 16: Dr. Kelly M. Quintanilla, President and CEO, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, released the following statement to Island Waves:
“I want to state that I had no knowledge of the allegations made against Mr. Quintanilla. We lived apart for two years and are in the process of a divorce. If I had known or suspected any wrongdoing, I would have reported it to the authorities immediately. This is the only statement I will make regarding this situation and I ask for privacy for my daughter during this difficult time.”
This is pretty scandalous.
she shouldn’t be dragged into this
Scandalous indeed
I know he didnt do this . he will always be my favorite teacher .
I hope President Quintanilla will find the strength to deal with all the jerks who will want to take advantage of the situation, and promote their retrograde, self serving agendas.
Though our news castors were the first in Corpus Christi to discover the connection between this man and our President of the University, I find it highly insensitive to have acknowledged it as well as release the information of her divorce. I find it very irrelevant to the story and a stab at her privacy. Be sure to keep in mind that ethics are at play here just as much as law. This news story does not concern us nor should it publicly concern President Quintanilla, especially since she was already in the process of separating herself from this man.
