RIVERDALE, Ga. -- A substitute teacher at Riverdale Elementary spent the night at the Clayton County Jail after being arrested Wednesday for allegedly exposing himself and urinating into a trash can in front of a fourth grade class.

Coleman Eaton, 60, faces two counts of aggravated child molestation.

Riverdale police said they received a call Wednesday morning. Investigators said Eaton was in the class with about 30 students. Students told police that Eaton told the class to turn around and not look, but a couple of students said they did.

Jason Cambers' son is in third grade. He said the allegations were almost unbelievable.

Erica Reese has a child attending the school. Her daughter is in the second grade.

"My child's safety, once my child leaves here, she's in their care," said Reese.

Both Reese and Chambers said they did not receive a notice from the school.

My inlaws lived in Riverdale until about 3 or 4 years ago. My wife lived there from 1984 to 1991.

After our marriage we visited their house numerous times every year since 1995.

I have lived in Metro Atlanta since 1978, and have seen all parts of the area, and have watched the local news.

I currently live in Forsyth Co.

I am quite comfortable with my assessment of the current state of Clayton Co's affairs. I am sure that plenty of decent people still there, and I'm sure that living there is not exactly like living in Mogadishu, but I stand by my statement in the general sense in which it was made.
