Capo I A Prostitute!

A high school teacher in Vermont has resigned after school officials
learned he pleaded guilty in November to a prostitution charge.

McClellan High School algebra teacher V T Capo, who had been put on paid
administrative leave, told us he resigned because he didn’t want to have
the school district involved in his personal matters.

The 67-year-old was arrested Oct. 29 on misdemeanor charges of
prostitution and operating a business without a license but Police Sgt.
Cassandra Davis said the school district was not notified because the
charge was not a felony.

Capo said he was desperate for money and originally thought he was just
going to work for a dating service. He pleaded guilty on Nov. 5 and was
given a suspended 90-day sentence and a $640 fine.

School officials told the Vermont Times that they finally learned of the
plea from a reporter and suspended Capo on Wednesday.

Capo, who was in the fifth year of his teacher career, told us that he
hopes this attention doesn't affect his ability to find another job.
