The lawyer for a Boca Raton teacher charged with kissing students said the state is withholding evidence that proves the teacher is innocent.
In court Monday, Brian Kornbluth's lawyer announced she'd be filing a motion to dismiss one of the two battery charges he faces.
Boca police arrested the former Somerset Academy teacher in February for kissing two young students.
Kornbluth’s lawyer, Kristine Rosendahl, argued the evidence doesn’t back it up.
“We want to be able to see all of the evidence and evaluate it because we believe there is evidence in there that will exculpate him,” Rosendahl said.
Specifically, she wants the video footage, or recordings, of all the interviews investigators did with the two alleged victims.
A judge should hear Kornbluth's motion to dismiss Monday afternoon. His case is scheduled to go to trial next Thursday.
