Fired high school dean files federal lawsuit against school district, too

Mental health counselor Nancy Strapko treated a female guidance counselor who admitted to sexually assaulting a male at the high school where she taught.

She testified as a paid expert witness in favor of leniency at Kristie Torbick’s sentencing, and questioned whether the male student was a “victim,” because he was the “pursuer” in the relationship. Torbick’s resulting sentence was half of what prosecutors wanted.

Plymouth State University didn’t appreciate Strapko saying anything that could have helped its disgraced alumna.
