The Spotsylvania County Schools Superintendent and School Board leadership have been silent on the child sexual assault charges in the Miguel Velasquez Velasco case. Here is a screenshot of the email we sent to Superintendent Mitchell asking a few questions.

We believe that the silence is nothing more than a cover-up led by Superintendent Mitchell, school board chair Lorita Daniels, and Vice Chair Nicole Cole. Mitchell started as Superintendent on August 1, 2024. Spotsylvania County Schools provided training to Miguel Velasquez-Velasco on August 5 and August 6. We have the training documentation showing these dates with Velasquez-Velasco’s signature. All of this occurred under the watch of Mitchell and the head of transportation.
