51-year-old Christopher Rodriguez – who worked at UCLA ECE centers that provide care for children ages two month to six years, including the Krieger Center and University Village Center, for nearly 25 years – was found guilty of nine charges, including multiple counts of sexual battery against a minor and willful cruelty to a child.
Rodriguez was initially placed on administrative leave in December 2023 after a Title IX investigation began, and arrested in February 2024 following reports from colleagues who witnessed inappropriate behavior toward a child. Rodriguez allegedly exploited gaps in oversight to isolate and abuse young children, often taking them to the bathroom alone or setting up physical barriers in the classroom to conceal his actions. These tactics reportedly allowed him to avoid detection by other students, teachers, and aides, enabling the abuse to occur without interruption.
The impact of Rodriguez’s actions has been devastating for the victims. Parents of affected students reported troubling changes in their children’s behavior after interactions with Rodriguez, including school-related fear, violent outbursts, bed-wetting, physical pain, and long-term genital injuries. The trauma caused by the abuse has left lasting psychological scars on the young victims, and many families are now seeking justice and support.
