Former Iowa high school principal kills himself amid sexual misconduct probe

A former associate principal at an Iowa high school killed himself last week amid allegations he sexually exploited a student — the second district employee facing such accusations to take his own life this month, a report said.

William Terry, 47, a former employee at Marshalltown High School, fatally shot himself inside the basement of his Ames home on Thursday as police arrived to execute an arrest warrant, WHO reported, citing authorities. Terry was accused of engaging in an inappropriate relationship with a former student. The allegations were reported to police on July 6, the report said.
