A former instructor at Western Harnett High School is facing allegations that he had sex with a student.

Rodney Donnell Ellis, 38, of Brookhannah Court in Fuquay-Varina, is charged with a felony.
Authorities say the alleged victim is a 17-year-old student at Harnett Central High School. It's where Harnett County Superintendent Phil Ferrell says Ellis worked at for the past three school years as a special needs teacher and assistant football coach, before transferring to Western Harnett at the beginning of the school year to pick up similar duties. It's believed the teacher may have gotten to know the victim during his time at Harnett Central. The investigation into Ellis' alleged sexual encounter began after the mother of the student contacted the school system and reported Ellis had sex with her daughter at her home in Angier the day after Thanksgiving. After receiving the information from the parent, Ferrell contacted the Harnett County Sheriff's Office and requested an investigation into the allegation. School leaders say Ellis resigned his teaching position at Western Harnett High School on November 29, two days after the investigation into the sex charges began. Ellis was arrested Thursday and placed in the Harnett County Jail under a $10,000 bond. He was able to post bond and is now awaiting his next court date.

A mother who contacted ABC11 Tuesday said a teacher at William R. Davie Middle School showed students in her son's class a pornographic video.

She sent cell phone video shot by her son of the incident - which she said happened Monday - to the ABC11 newsroom Tuesday.



The video - shot from behind a man's head - shows a laptop computer on a desk in front of him with video of two people having sex playing on the screen.

The student who took the video says it wasn't the first time he'd been shown porn videos in class.

Robert Hester says he told his mom, but she didn't believe him.

"All of my boys told me that they're watching porn at school and I never believed them, because they're supposed to have internet blocks here at the school house," Robert Hester's mother Bobbie Ross said.

So her 13-year-old son decided to use his phone to prove it.

"I said, 'Mom I have a porn video on my phone,'" Hester said. "She said, 'No.' I said, 'My teacher watches porn.'"

The 8th grader says he showed his mother the video footage he took during band class Monday, hoping to prove he wasn't lying.

"That's when I lost it," Ross said. "I called the sheriff and got him to come to my house that night."

A spokesperson with Halifax County Schools said the teacher, Archie McLeod III, is on unpaid suspension while the Halifax County Sheriff's Office conducts an investigation.

McLeod, 51, is reportedly seen on the video.

"He looked like he didn't care," Ross said. "I mean he saw (my son) recording him and he pretty much throws his hand up and turns around and keeps watching. It makes me mad, I mean just to know that I send him to school to learn, to get an education and he's here watching porn with his teacher."

Ross says she wants McLeod to be prosecuted and hopes other parents learn from her mistake of not believing her son at first.

"When your kids come home telling you something like they're watching porn or doing this and that look into it, cause there's no telling what's going on in those schools," Ross said.

Major Bruce Temple with the Halifax County Sheriff's Office says Mcleod is charged with 11 counts of disseminating obscene material to minors under the age of 16 and 11 counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor --one count for each of the students authorities believe viewed the video.

Detectives said during their investigation, they recovered the computer and the video.

McLeod's bond was set for $40,000. He bonded out of jail Wednesday morning. He is scheduled to appear in court on Feb. 22.

According to a bio on the Davie Middle website, McLeod is from Fayetteville. He got a graduate degree at North Carolina Central University.

Not a true comparison.....they're both fruit, but apples and oranges. Abuse occurs everywhere. This thread of yours is just an attempt to throw attention off of programs.

And it's transparent, Anne.  Everybody sees it.


.....and I think it is all fine either way, the main thing is that we are getting some information about programs and public schools and abuse that occurs out to the readers and providing links to the originals.


That still doesn't explain why you conflate public schools and programs.  Apples and oranges.

I changed the title of the thread to allow posting of topics abuse in Public and Programs.

John you have long ago shown that you have no interest in the truth about abuse in programs. There is no point in discussing it with you. You are far too close minded.

It must have been long ago because I dont remember discussing the truth with a guy named John.  If he comes back point him out to me I have a few thoughts on that subject.

Apples and oranges again.  Public schools and programs have very little, if anything, in common.   But you know this already.

I just dont agree with you , Anne.  You may want to consider just skipping over this thread if it causes you this much heartburn.

You forgot your third ...  there were only two.

I never said it "gave me heartburn".  I'm simply pointing out that your analogies have no basis in reason.

I like my analogies and feel they get my point across and so do other people.  I cant expect everyone to like them.

Most other people disagree with you.  I think that you have a hard time with them because you struggle with making the connection.  If I said someone was as honest as Abe Lincoln.  That would not mean that person was tall and had a beard.  The commonality is only that the two people shared the trait of being honest.  Other than that they can be completely different.  So an analogy can connect "Apple and Oranges" for example because they are both fruits.  One is citrus and the other is not but they have the shared classification of being called a fruit as a link between them.
I do understand the phrase "Apple and Oranges" as an expression of things being different, but I also used borrowed that same expression to make my point.

They can be found everywhere, Bruce!  Not many people on fornits like them because the analogy makes a point that they dont like.

Samarra, and whomever wrote the "magnets" analogy. Loved the anaolgy, great stuff, very accurate in a metaphoric kind of way.

Thank you.
