Police Investigate TikTok Video Involving Former Silver Lake School Employee

Authorities frame the case as a fast-moving tip review with student safety at the center.

Overview

  • The Kingston Police investigation, which began Thursday night after a TikTok clip surfaced, focuses on a video showing a male district employee in a sexualized chat with someone posing as a 15-year-old girl.
  • Police say they have found no evidence so far that Silver Lake students were contacted or harmed.
  • District leaders removed the employee from his role, barred him from school property, and deferred further comment to police while stressing student safety.
  • Detectives say the case involves multiple jurisdictions and they are withholding details to avoid compromising the investigation.
  • Officials asked anyone with relevant information to contact School Resource Officer Matthew Donovan as they continue to review digital evidence.
