Episode Details

A former Ohio high school science teacher is facing serious charges after allegedly harboring a missing teen for over eight months—despite knowing she was reported missing. The girl had run away from a youth shelter, and Binkley, who reportedly began grooming her after meeting her at school, is accused of interference with custody. Authorities say he lied to officers on prior visits and finally admitted her presence when they returned. He’s pleaded not guilty, with a pretrial hearing set for September 30th—and his teaching career ended after multiple administrative leaves. This case underscores the dangers of unchecked relationships and the urgent need for follow-up on missing persons reports.
