An Oklahoma school district is taking heat for standing firm on its employment of an elementary school principal who is a part time drag queen and who also has an arrest record for child pornography.

Again… and he’s a school principal for little kids.

Dr. Shane Murnan, the 52-year-old principal of John Glenn Elementary School in southwestern Oklahoma City, parades himself around as a drag queen named Shantel Mandalay and was even crowned as this year’s Miss Oklahoma FFI, a drag queen event.

While this may be “harmless,” he has a far darker history that IS harmful for kids. He has an arrest record for child porn.

Per The Blaze:

Despite his apparently troubling personal life, Murnan began a career in education around the turn of the 21st century. In 2001, when he was 30 years old and teaching fifth grade at Will Rogers Elementary School in Stillwater, Oklahoma, Murnan was arrested and charged with possessing child pornography and drugs.

From his seized digital devices, investigators were able to glean at least four images of pornographic material. However, a judge later determined that prosecutors had not proven that the victims in the images were underage. Though another judge disagreed and stated that the images “do represent child pornography,” another court sided with the first judge and dismissed the child porn charge.

In the end, Murnan served a short probation sentence for a marijuana charge and had his record expunged in October 2003. With a newly cleaned record, Murnan adopted the Shantel Mandalay drag persona sometime between 2004 and 2006, V1SUT claimed.

The school is defending itself over the hire, though, saying that the charges Murnan faced were reversed. So, the school feels it has not made any mistakes at all by putting a sex pervert into a school with small children.

However, the story may not quite be over. The state superintendent of schools has now said his office is looking into the hiring.

Regardless, no drag queen – even those without a police record – should be working at a school.

Period.
