Parents in the Washington Elementary School District are demanding answers this week after a convicted sex offender allegedly entered Orangewood Elementary School in central Phoenix, led a young girl into an empty classroom, and assaulted her. On Wednesday, Phoenix police say 25-year-old Abel Gblah slipped in behind a student as they entered the school, claimed to be a doctor, and then convinced a young girl to accompany him into an unused classroom. Once inside, investigators say he sexually assaulted her. The school district confirmed on Nov. 21 that the suspect is a former student, stating in a news release that Abel Gblah attended the school from 2012 to 2015.
