SRPD said Isai Nicodemo Rodas, 22, of San Rafael, was taken into custody and booked into the Marin County Jail for several charges including sexual assault with a minor with 3 years of age difference, child molesting, and sexual battery.
San Rafael PD said it was alerted of the encounters on Friday by officials with the Marin County Office of Education. Investigators believe the inappropriate contact started in late 2023 while Rodas was employed as a paraeducator, a role similar to a teacher's assistant, at Marin's Community School in San Rafael.
'The inappropriate contact escalated to at least three separate incidents of sexual assault that occurred offsite from the school campus,' said police. Rodas was 20 years old at the time while the victim was 16 years old. Rodas left MCOE in June 2024.
Police said assistance services and resources have been provided to the victim, whose identity will remain confidential.
'While Rodas never worked for San Rafael City Schools (SRCS), he is currently a member of the SRCS Board of Education, having joined in December 2024,' said Sergeant Justin Graham of the San Rafael Police Department. 'Currently, we have no knowledge of any misconduct involving SRCS students. SRCS Administration and Board will work to suspend Mr. Rodas' Board duties for the foreseeable future, pending the outcome of this matter.'
