A former Fenwick High School student from Oak Park is accusing a long-time teacher and coach at the school of abuse.
"His obsession with stalking me grew. When I was going to my religion class, he'd stop me, wrap his arms around me, put me in almost a headlock, press his cheeks and even his lips against my face and ask me about my love life," said Helen Quinn-Pasin in a YouTube video uploaded this week.
Oak Park officials said police conducted a thorough investigation, interviewed all parties involved and even consulted with the Cook County State's Attorney sex crime unit. They said the unit did not believe the allegations warranted felony sex crime charges, but may have warranted misdemeanor battery charges.However, the statute of limitations for such charges had expired and Oak Park police closed the investigation with no charges.
Fenwick has been in contact with the Oak Park Police Department regarding this matter. Their investigation concluded this past fall, and no charges were brought. John Quinn released a statement through his brother Thomas, who said Quinn is cooperating fully with Fenwick's third-party investigation."John Quinn has given his heart and soul to teaching at Fenwick High School for over 40 years. Throughout his career, John has provided his students with an outstanding education.
