A special education teacher in Castellammare di Stabia has been arrested following allegations of sexual misconduct involving seven students aged 11 to 13.

" Parents, outraged by the claims, stormed the school, leading to heightened security measures.
Evidence, including audio messages and chats, suggests psychological manipulation and abuse.
The teacher allegedly used secluded spaces and social media to exploit the students.
Authorities are now examining how such incidents went unnoticed for a year.
The case has sparked widespread concern and calls for stricter oversight in schools.
