hi may I please speak with Andrea CA in January 2014 in this remarkable phone call Jamie cillo from Riverside
California had the idea to videotape herself as she confronted the woman who she says abused her sexually her former
Middle School fizzed teacher Andrea Cardoza hi is this Miss cardosa yes this used to work at
chimala in Riverside okay this is Jamie Cardoza had not heard from Jamie in a decade Jamie says she
spent those years trying to bury the painful memories of her abuse how did you get the strength to make that phone
call I got sick and tired of keeping all this in jimie says the abuse began when
she was 13 years old and ended when she was 20 she starts kissing me in the locker room she's like well that's what
you do when you're friends and each thing would go a step further she would say this is what you do when you love
someone and you know if I say that I didn't want that then it was like I didn't love her last January at the age
of 28 Jaime learned her alleged abuser was the assistant principal of a California high school and decided she
had to try to stop her from abusing anyone else so what happens when a student comes in and says that they're
having sexual relation relationship with with the teacher and I would involve law
enforcement so how is that any different from what you did when I was at shimaa middle if not do you realize that you
brainwashed me and you manipulated me and that what you did was wrong yes and I regret
it I only I just wanted to help you how is having a sexual relationship with the
12-year-old student helping you sicken me and every day when I think about what you did you sicken me Cardoza never
denies the abuse the next day Jamie uploaded the video to YouTube and sent the link to the school's principal that
afternoon the police were called and what happened to Cardoza she was arrested about a week later and her bail
was set at $5 million so she sits in jail right now it's like a nightmare like I was living it again but needed to
