A Northern California school administrator, who lost a city post four years ago over controversial Covid remarks, was accused of workplace bullying for putting his subordinate's desk on a roof, officials said Thursday. The allegations against Kenneth Turnage II, director of maintenance, operations and facilities at the Antioch Unified School District, could end up costing the job of his boss, superintendent Stephanie Anello.

But the trustee made it clear that Turnage’s alleged action was beyond the pale. “When I found out, I was horrified. That was unacceptable,” Lathan said. “What I can tell you is that school district culture and climate matter. If our staff feels unsafe, that’s unacceptable.” Turnage, Anello and the superintendent's husband — former Antioch police chief Allan Cantando — did not immediately return messages seeking their comment on Thursday.
