Cristo Rey Jesuit High School in Milwaukee staged a walkout to express their anger and demand answers following the arrest of the school’s former chief of security, Fernando Bustos. Bustos, who had previously served as a Greenfield police officer, was charged with secretly recording videos inside the girls’ locker room over several months
The criminal complaint revealed that Bustos had recorded hundreds of videos between May 2024 and February 2025. Prior to his employment at Cristo Rey, Bustos resigned from the Greenfield Police Department after an internal investigation found he had stolen evidence and lied about it, actions that placed him on the Brady List—a record of law enforcement officers with integrity issues.
Students, feeling betrayed and concerned for their safety, confronted school administrators during a board meeting. Senior Rachel Tapech described the emotional atmosphere, noting that many classmates were in tears and felt the need to voice their concerns. The walkout and subsequent meeting underscored the students’ demand for transparency and accountability from the school’s leadership.
This incident has not only shaken the trust within the school community but also highlighted the importance of thorough background checks and the need for open communication between school officials, students, and parents in addressing such serious matters. Via Tmj4
