• Pedophile Chappaqua drama teacher Christopher Schraufnagel was sentenced May 30 to only three years' probation for being proven guilty of sexually assaulting three minor students at elite Horace Greeley High School:

"The school board, the judge, the district attorney got what they wanted," [resident] Murphy said outside the courthouse. "They protected the name Chappaqua. They didn’t protect the students. They didn’t protect the children. It’s just sad."

The 15-year-old Horace Greeley High School student was flubbing his lines for the school musical, so his drama teacher called him into his office and closed the door.

There, the boy's parents said, Christopher Schraufnagel gave their son his first dose of cocaine.

It was the start of a downward spiral that the student and his parents — one of five Chappaqua families who have filed civil claims against Schraufnagel and the Chappaqua school district — blame on the 41-year-old veteran speech and drama teacher

• The school district's lawyer blamed the underage students for the damage caused to them:

Editorial: "Schraufnagel - A dark case study"

First, the district argued in legal papers that any harm suffered by student plaintiffs was caused by the students' own "carelessness, recklessness, negligence and/or assumption of the risk." Then, in motions filed in two of the cases, a district lawyer argued that the names of plaintiff parents should be made public. The parents have sought anonymity to protect the identities of their children, the alleged victims.
