Slidell Police say a volunteer baseball coach had an inappropriate relationship with two students when he was working at Northshore High School.
Police booked 24-year-old Nicholas Talamo on charges of indecent behavior with a juvenile, computer-aided solicitation and prohibited acts between an educator and a student.
"During the investigation, Slidell Police Investigators discovered evidence to support that Talamo was inappropriately having a relationship with an 18-year-old student," according to a statement issued by Slidell Police. "He was also engaging in inappropriate conversations and exchanging explicit photographs with another underage juvenile student."
"Just like our full-time employees, all athletic volunteers undergo a vetting process and a thorough background check," said Frank Jabbia, Superintendent of the St. Tammany Parish Public School System. "The safety of our students is always our top priority, and this kind of behavior will not be tolerated on any level."
