Settlement in McCord case avoids admission of fault
David Bruce McCord, 46, of Gilbert, was sentenced to life in prison in 1992 after being convicted of molesting two South Mountain High School students. One student died weeks before sentencing. Mesa schools deny negligence, while officials did not pursue revocation of McCord’s teaching certificate. In 1989 McCord began teaching at South Mountain High, with a student alleging abuse and a report filed that year.
