PATERSON, N.J. - A high school music teacher has been arrested on charges of inappropriate sexual conduct toward several female students while working as a band instructor at Ramsey High School in Bergen County.
Derick Jerinsky, age 27, of Suffern, New York, has been charged with aggravated criminal sexual contact, endangering the welfare of a child, and obscenity for persons under 18. The arrest came about as a result of an investigation conducted by members of the Ramsey Police Department, under the direction of Chief Bryan Gurney, with help from the county child abuse unit.
On Wednesday, May 12, law enforcement officers arrested Jerinsky after reportedly learning that he engaged in inappropriate sexual conduct with several Ramsey High School female students while he was working as a volunteer assistant band instructor for the Ramsey High School Band.
The alleged conduct included Jerinsky engaging in inappropriate sexual conversations, both personally and through electronic means, with the students; displaying inappropriate images to the students; and having direct inappropriate sexual contact with one female student.
The investigation reportedly began when one student reported Jerinsky's conduct to law enforcement. According to authorities, it was subsequently learned that additional female students were also alleged victims of Jerinsky's inappropriate sexual conduct. Authorities state that in all, a total of six students reported inappropriate conduct by Jerinsky that spanned from 2008 to this month.
Jerinsky is employed full-time as a music teacher at Eastside High School in Paterson, New Jersey. He is not directly employed by Ramsey High School, and his position with the High School Band is strictly voluntary.
Jerinsky was charged with one count of aggravated criminal sexual contact (a 3rd Degree crime), six counts of endangering the welfare of a child (a 2nd Degree crime), and four counts of obscenity for persons under 18 (a 3rd degree crime).
Bail was set by Judge Donald Venezia at $125,000.00 dollars with no 10% cash option, and no contact with the victims. Jerinsky was remanded to the Bergen County Jail in lieu of bail.
Law enforcement authorities ask that if anyone has any further information pertaining to Derick Jerinsky, to please contact the Ramsey Police Department at 201-327-2400.
