Two mothers whose children were un-enrolled from an Ohio private school said Monday that the school sicced the FBI on them to act as a “diversion” for potential “tax fraud,” which the parents allegedly uncovered after looking at the institution’s financial statements.
Amy Gonzalez and Andrea Gross told Fox News host Jesse Watters they just “followed the money” when they began asking questions about the Columbus Academy’s finances and curriculum. Their daughters were not re-enrolled at the institution after the 2020-2021 school year in alleged retaliation for their questioning of “political bias” at the school, according to a lawsuit filed Thursday.
“I think it’s interesting that they say they didn’t write a letter,” Gross told Watters. “What they actually did was, the headmaster and the head of the security sat down a thousand faculty members on the floor and told him they had alerted the FBI to Amy and I. And this is after having called the local police department to file a police report against us. When they were speaking to the teachers, the message was very clear to the teachers: When they left they were to be afraid of us and fearful.”
