SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) -- The San Ysidro School District and several employees face a new lawsuit after 23-year-old Jaime Godinez, a teacher’s aide at Sunset Preschool, allegedly sexually assaulted a 4-year-old girl during nap time.
Parents in the district say they’re standing in solidarity with the family of the young girl and continue to demand accountability to prevent something like this from happening again.
“How do I know my daughter wasn’t affected?” said Roxane Palestino, a parent in the San Ysidro School District.
Palestino says during the 2022-2023 school year, Godinez worked as a teacher’s aide in her daughter’s classroom at the Smythe Child Development Center.
“My biggest concern was my daughter coming home with bruises, her being nonverbal, still needing help at that time
