Attorney General Hector Balderas will announce Monday his office will look into why Albuquerque Public Schools' safety protocols were breached and Jason Martinez was hired in June before a background check was completed.
Martinez resigned abruptly last week. It later surfaced that he faces six felony counts of sexual assault on a child in Colorado.
A lawyer for Karen Rudys, interim assistant superintendent for human resources, says the district's superintendent, Luis Valentino, was informed multiple times about Martinez refusing to complete his background check and Valentino ignored those concerns.
The school board met behind closed doors for five hours Sunday.
Valentino and a district spokesman didn't immediately respond to emails seeking comment Monday.
