A former Florida Gators quarterback did not contest allegations that he asked an underage student to touch him inappropriately.
Edgewater High School football coach and Art Recovery teacher Chris Leak, who played quarterback at the University of Florida just before Tim Tebow, voluntarily surrendered his Florida Educator’s Certificate amid allegations that, on Sept. 5, 2015, he received a massage from a 15-year-old female student and asked the student to touch his penis, according to an order filed by the Florida Education Practices Commission on Tuesday.
Leak allegedly was wearing only a towel when he received the massage.
As a condition of the voluntary surrender of his certificate, Leak will never have the certificate reinstated and will not be allowed to apply for a new one. He also chooses “not to contest any of the allegations or charges” levied against him in the Administrative Complaint, according to documents.
A police report, obtained by WFTV, alleges that the teenage victim told the school’s resource officer she left the athletic trainer’s office where the interaction with Leak occurred. She also claimed that Leak later drove her home, took her to get food and gave her friend, who she had told about the incident, $100.
Sexual assault charges against Leak were dropped on Friday after the accuser and her guardian told authorities they no longer wished to press charges, according to WFTV.
Leak resigned from the school the day that the police report was filed.

It's weird because I always figured Tebow would wind up being the pedo.

While you post this, the Florida board is probably posting the same story instead its Mike Henderson.

Well, he did end up touching a lot of little kids' penises, but he did so appropriately. Half credit, I suppose.
