URBANA – The Champaign County state's attorney has filed criminal charges against three former Urbana school district officials for failing to report suspected child abuse by a teacher now serving a 60-year prison sentence.

Julia Rietz said Thursday that she filed misdemeanor charges Wednesday of failure to report suspected child abuse or neglect against former Urbana Superintendent Gene Amberg, former Thomas Paine elementary school principal Janice Bradley, and former Human Resources Director Carmelita Thomas for their failure to report their suspicions about inappropriate conduct by Jon White, a teacher at Thomas Paine.
