According to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, a 27-year-old Grove Park Elementary School teacher was arrested for soliciting and traveling to meet and have sex with a 2-year-old child.
Xavier Donte Alexander, a fourth-grade teacher, was arrested. Alexander has been teaching at Grove Park for six months, according to his LinkedIn profile, and has worked for the Palm Beach County School District since 2012.
Alexander acknowledged to responding to a Craigslist ad for a chance to have sexual contact with a two-year-old girl, according to the police report. He claimed he bought a box of condoms across the street and took out $200 from an ATM to cover the cost of two nights at the hotel.
Alexander claimed to have a sexual addiction and that women, men, and bestiality no longer met his demands, according to investigators. He also admitted to being a teacher at Grove Park Elementary School. He said he had never touched a child physically, but admitted to becoming sexually aroused in the past while babysitting children by grazing over their genitals on top of their garments or giving them wedgies.
Alexander meeting alone with particular lads from his school, according to one employee, was rare.
According to the sheriff’s office, detectives discovered Alexander is also a babysitter on Care.com and other nanny websites after conducting an investigation. There could be more victims, according to detectives.
Alexander is being held at the Palm Beach County Jail on a $1 million bond.
