After the shocking arrest of teacher Madison Bergmann, accused of serious misconduct with a student, the Hudson community expected transparency and swift reform.
Instead, evidence suggests that Brian Burbach was part of a circle of insiders who not only concealed the presence of a second predator, Abigail Faust, but also relied on institutional cover-up tools and legal intimidation to keep the public in the dark. For nearly a year, while parents were still grappling with Bergmann’s crimes, Burbach and others worked behind the scenes to stifle information about Faust, ensuring her abuse remained hidden.
When Faust was finally charged, authorities revealed she had victimized multiple children, including a student and a teen she nannied. The revelation that Burbach and his allies suppressed this knowledge while silencing the public has left Hudson parents outraged.
Rather than prioritizing student safety, the district engaged in damage control and censorship. The use of secrecy mandates via court-imposed silencing to protect the institution rather than the children is now at the heart of community anger, raising the question of whether Hudson schools deliberately chose secrecy over safeguarding students.
Would you trust this man with your children in Hudson schools? A coward who plants predators in classrooms, then hides their crimes behind courtroom censorship and judicial muzzles.
