Angry parents say their children were traumatized, maybe scarred for life, in a bizarre grade school invasion in Kentucky.
Police say a sub-contracted teacher and her husband conspired to steal urine from students, some as young as 4 years old.
The accused made a court appearance Tuesday in Greenup County.
Glenda Neace worries her fifth grade son may never be the same after she says Nick Kintigos invaded Argellite Elementary and forced her boy to try and pee in a cup.
"He's scared, can't go in a public bathroom, doesn't know what might happen," Neace said.
Investigators say Teresa Kintigos used her school key to help her husband Nick bypass office security and sneak in a back door.
The couple pleaded not guilty to criminal trespass and identity theft charges. But parents say Nick Kintigos grabbed and assaulted one of the several boys he approached to pee in a cup.
"He was grabbed and turned around from the urinal," Neace said.
"There was harm done, but no physical injury - so no assault," said Mike Wilson, Greenup County attorney.
Parent Tammy Ballard says a teacher violated school security rules by allowing Nick Kintigos to get his nephew out of class, since the suspect was not wearing a required visitors badge.
"It was an oversight, we'll correct it," said Mike Raby, Greenup County schools.
"What upsets me the most is kids are afraid to go to school, we've seen it with the Amish murders and other problems," Wilson says. "We can get justice for the act, but not solve the problems that resulted from the act."
The mother of the four year old who police say did pee in a cup said she wants the urine sample back.
She's worried her son's identity may already be compromised and says her son is traumatized.
Teresa Kintigos is suspended without pay from her teaching job with northeast head start.
