Matthew Shelton, a teacher at Robert Semple Elementary School in Benicia, California, is charged with multiple counts of lewd acts with a child. At the same time, the families of multiple former students have filed lawsuits against Shelton and the school district. Shelton was arrested and tried for similar charges in another county, but returned to teaching when a jury acquitted him. Law&Crime’s Jesse Weber digs into how Shelton was allowed back on the job with trial attorney Ashley Hadler.
