An unregistered Level 2 sex offender attempted to dismiss a 15 year old girl from Auburn High School and was arrested shortly after. According to police, Mr. Banfill was seeking the early dismissal of a 15-year-old girl and said he was her stepfather. The secretary refused Mr. Banfill’s request because he repeatedly mispronounced the student’s name. When Mr. Banfill left the building, a teacher saw him walking near a gym class that was being held outside, police said.
According to police, the teacher said Mr. Banfill appeared to be sending a text message or taking pictures of the students in the gym class with his cell phone. The teacher alerted the front office, which alerted Officer Kennedy. Police say they do not know if Mr. Banfill did take any photos of the students. Mr. Banfill was arraigned Tuesday in Central District Court in Worcester. Bail was set at $700, according to court documents. The state will seek mandatory lifetime parole if he is convicted.
