A shocking investigation has revealed that a physical education teacher accused of secretly photographing over 100 girls at a prestigious middle school in Central Sweden had a disturbing history of similar accusations spanning over a decade.

Despite previous allegations of photographing girls without their consent, which led to his being bought out by a municipality for over half a million kronor, the teacher was able to secure new positions in schools.

This case has sparked a debate about the practices of buying out staff who behave inappropriately towards students, with critics arguing that such measures allow problematic individuals to continue working in the education sector unchallenged.

Legal experts and school officials cite the complexity of these cases and the challenge of proving misconduct as reasons for opting for financial settlements over firmer actions.
