Posted — UpdatedIn a letter, Kathy Porras resigned effective Tuesday from her position at the C.A. Dillon Youth Development Center. She did not give a reason for her departure.
Last month, the state Department of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention reassigned Porras and placed five employees on leave pending the outcome of an investigation involving a counselor accused of having sex with boys housed there.
Shannon Richardson West, 40, is charged with two counts of sexual activity by a custodian.
Four of the employees on leave have returned to work.
