MAGNOLIA PARK -- Educating children about the signs of predatory
behavior will be discussed at a safety program Tuesday at American
Lutheran Church.
A panel discussion will be led by Marissa Rosoff, coordinator of
school safety at Burbank Unified School District, and Bruce Osgood,
principal at John Muir Middle School.
Also on hand for the 7 p.m. event will be representatives from the
Burbank Family Services Agency, the Burbank Police Department and
Lutheran Social Services.
The program is a result of the December arrest of the church's former
youth director David Shelton. Shelton pleaded guilty in February to
having sex with a girl in the youth group. He was sentenced to three
months probation and ordered to stay away from the girl.
Parents and children older than 10 are invited to attend. The church
is at 755 N. Whitnall Highway. For more information, call 846-0295.
