A court in Maryland failed to charge a teacher’s aide after he was caught masturbating during an online Zoom class recently.
According to media reports, Marc Shack was put on administrative leave, right after the footage of the incident was shared online. Here, viewers got a glimpse of the strange moment when Marc engages in the private act, right towards the end of his history class that took place on Monday.
Local news outlets mentioned how masturbating isn’t termed a crime in the state of Maryland and therefore for that reason, the teacher’s charge won’t be charged, anytime soon.
Marc works as a teacher’s assistant at Maryland’s Shady Grove Middle School. Moreover, authorities revealed how he is actually an assistant for special education students in Gaithersburg.
After the shockingly bizarre incident went viral, Marc insisted that it was indeed an ‘accident.
’ Moreover, he explained to local media outlets how he had no clue that his camera was still on. “I thought I had logged out when the class got over,” he mentioned. “I had zero clues that my Zoom was still on and why. Why on earth would I do that?” he exclaimed.
Marc went on repeated how teaching is his job and he would never engage in such an act publicly as it’s absurd behavior. “I’m only human. It was my bad.”
In the same way, the teacher’s aide confronted the great backlash and criticism that surrounded him. “I am not a pervert or anything like that, you know. You have got to believe me on that… I thought I had some privacy at my own home.. but I had no clue,” he mentioned.
Right after the incident, officials carried out a mega investigation but there were no charges brought forward as the act ‘didn’t rise to that great of a level of an offense, under Maryland’s law,’ as mentioned by the county’s police spokesman
