Former school worker gets 4 years for having sex with students
TACOMA, Wash. -- A former security guard at Stadium High School in Tacoma was sentenced Friday to four years in prison for having sex with three high school students.
Donte Lipscomb, 32, starting having sex with a 16-year-old student in mid 2010 while he was employed as a school security guard. Prosecutors say he also instigated a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old student just before the holiday break in 2011.
In all, Lipscomb had sex with three students from April 2009 to June 2011.
Prosecutors say Lipscomb would call the girls out of class and have them report to the school's security office -- sometimes twice a week -- to have sex with them.
"Our schools should be safe zones," Prosecutor Mark Lindquist said in a statement. "The legislature has made this conduct illegal and our Special Assault Unit vigorously prosecutes these cases."
Two of the victims came forward when one found out about the other, and the third told her story a short time later.
Police arrested Lipscomb in January 2012.
He pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual misconduct and was sentenced Friday to 48 months in prison.
Once he's released, Lipscomb will be supervised by the Department of Corrections for a year and will be required to register as a sex offender, according to prosecutors.

We had a security guard at my high school that was quite friendly with all the girls. I dunno if he ever had sex with any of them, however a good number of ex-students are friends with him on Facebook, including myself. He'd always turn a blind eye when we were sneaking off campus for lunch or to go across the street to smoke. A few times he even escorted us in without getting in trouble when we would skip first period and go to breakfast.Â
The other security guard was a total tool. I will never forget this in my life. My 3 close friends and I were leaving campus early one day to head up to the lake and the tool-y security guard was patrolling the back parking lot. As we were backing out, I turned around to see if he spotted us and I seen him throw his donut on the ground and take off running after us. That security guard was a VERY large man and never ran. I starting yelling go go go and as I turned around again, he was right on the bumper of the car. I have no clue how he ran that fast! He ended up recognizing our faces so we got detention the next day and then he gave us an extra day for, and I quote, "Wasting a perfectly delicious donut."
For two years they had sex twice a week and they never said anything till one found out about the other? Doesn't sound like all 104 previous encounters (x3) had many complaints before. Someone need to look up the number of friends these girls have on Facebook. The number could reach into the thousands.
I'm sure the girls will miss him too.Â
Cant imagine that the top of the list for a 16 yr old HS girl is to boink the guard
@Alikelystorey They probablly didn't care. I bet they were a little loose. Sexually. I can see the types of girls now. These weren't preppy cheerleaders.
Glad they got the "has to register" in there!!!
