LUBBOCK -- There was more testimony Thursday in the trial against a former administrator at the West Texas State School in Pyote.
Brad Miller -- a former teacher at the school -- took the stand Thursday. Miller talked about how a teen was sobbing as that teen described being abused at the school. According to Miller, the teen said that former principal John Paul Hernandez was the person who molested him.
Hernandez is facing 11 charges -- including one of sexual assault -- for alleged abuse that happened at the West Texas State School. The defense says there is no evidence of any abuse, and that the allegations were made up.
The West Texas State School in Pyote closed last summer.
