Vice Principal Shadrick Woods - Bathroom child molester

The Vice Principal of a Prince George's County Elementary School has been charged with sexually abusing a six year old boy.

nvestigators say the incidents happened in the bathroom at Gaywood Elementary School on at least two occasions since last December.

Vice Principal Shadrick Woods turned himself in this morning to face charges.

The boy's mother, whose name we are not using to protect her son's identity, tells 9NEWS NOW she discovered the abuse when her son brought home an expensive toy.

"Basically he came home with a Gameboy and I asked him where he got it. He said the vice principal gave it to him for good behavior."

After questioning him about the gift from 39 year old Vice Principal Shadrick Woods-she says her six year old son-told her what had been going on in the bathroom at school.

"He told me whenever he would go into the bathroom and the Vice Principal would see him, he would follow him in and tuck in his shirt. He didn't understand why it had to be tucked in his underwear. I asked him point blank if he had been touched and he told me yes," the mom says.

She believes the incidents had been going on for months, and think prosecutors should throw the book at Woods.

"He need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I think it's horrible he's around these kids. They trust him. My son trusted him and he used that trust to do whatever he wanted to do with him."

School officials reassigned Woods on March 10th after learning about the allegations. The Prince George's County Grand Jury has now handed down a four count indictment against Woods--for two separate incidents at the school since last December.

"There are two counts of third degree sex offense and two counts of child sex abuse as well," Prince George's County Prosecutor Glenn Ivey says.

The little boy's mother and stepdad-who have five kids at Gaywood Elementary says the six year old finally feels safe going back to school.

"Right now I'm focusing on my son. He's the most important thing to me. He's in therapy. I want to make sure he doesn't have any lasting effects from this."

Woods is out of jail after posting $50,000 bond. He'll be arraigned within 30 days.
