It’s about time they get some coverage

A history teacher at Twin Lakes High School in Monticello, Indiana faces several charges of sex crimes against children. I got a tip about the history teacher walked out of the school at the end of last year and can now confirm 47-year-old Michael Gilbert is in custody. According to court records an Idaho Police officer first worked the case and got Indiana State Police involved after connecting two victims from Idaho to the suspect here. Gilbert faces 7 charges including promotion of child sex trafficking, child exploitation with an aggravating factor, child exploitation, possession of child sex abuse material and performance before a minor that is harmful to minors. Gilbert is accused of many things including talking to an underage girl in Idaho while in the high school bathroom. Here is one paragraph from the probable cause. "Child Victim 1 reported that in the video call it was visible that Gilbert was inside a restroom stall, told her he had to finish quickly because he was on a break at school, and masturbated with his genitals exposed. Child Victim 1 took a screenshot of Gilbert in the stall before he lowered his pants. On September 4, 2026, I inspected multiple restrooms at Twin Lakes High School with school administrators. The restroom stall shown in Child Victim 1’s screenshot was similar to the restroom stalls near his classroom." Charges were filed Monday and a warrant issued for his arrest. He is now in custody.

4:42, everyone sent home in the Farwell case. Matthew Farwell smirked at an older woman sitting in the front row with a member of the defense team before he left the room.
