Principal Daniel Brock Arrested for Sexually Assaulting Child


The principal of Morrison’s Silver State Christian School, Daniel Brock, was arrested on April 10 on suspicion of sexually assaulting a child. Brock was placed on leave with pay as the charges were investigated. The investigation began in February when a staff member alerted police to a possible improper relationship between Brock and a student. On Tuesday, Brock was formally charged with sexual assault on one child and attempted sexual assault on another child.

This week, the Jefferson County District court unsealed the arrest-warrant affidavit, revealing particulars about Brock’s conduct with the students.

According to several students, Brock often spoke graphically and inappropriately with students, asking his male students about sexual positions and how often they had sex. Brock would talk to his students about pornography and he would describe in detail his own sex life with his wife.

The affidavit included a student’s statement that on an out-of-state school trip Brock made the student sleep in his bed while the principal rubbed the student’s back. One student claimed that Brock would fondle his genitals; another student stated he had been fondled for years by Brock.

The Baptist school’s website displays a quote from 5th grade student Ashley: “I think the teachers are good Christian men and women helping us learn more and more as we grow older.”
