Premature Suicide Weekend?

“This week, the Chaffey Joint Union High School District was notified of a law enforcement investigation involving Dr. Sam Andress, band director at Los Osos High School,” Superintendent Mat Holton wrote in a media statement released Thursday afternoon. “Yesterday, April 10, 2019, Dr. Andress was presented with information we had received and following that conversation, he submitted his voluntary resignation. Later that afternoon, the district received a call from a law enforcement representative tragically sharing that Dr. Andress had taken his life.”

Cindy Bachman, a spokeswoman for the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, said detectives investigated allegations a parent brought to a school resource officer Tuesday regarding a conversation Andress had with a student on social media.

When interviewed by detectives, Andress told them he believed he was communicating with an adult.

“Detectives concluded that no crime had occurred,” Bachman said.
