The now former school staff member, 27-year-old Emily Rajis's charges came following a "report in reference to inappropriate contact between a faculty member at Central Dauphin East High School and a student at the school.," on March 29, 2024 the Lower Paxton Township Bureau of Police stated in the release. 

During the investigation, the police confirmed all three victims are students at CDEHS and they all "identified" Emily Rajis as the person who assaulted them.
