On March 30, state police were notified from a Childline report that Gingrich was having inappropriate contact with a student at Shalom Christian Academy. During an interview with the Child Advocacy Center, the student said that Gingrich reached out to them electronically.
Eventually, Gingrich hugged the student, kissed their cheek, put her hand up the their shirt and pants and touched the victim’s genitals, according to a criminal complaint. All of the actions occurred at the school, the complaint says.
