Jon WhiteShocking details out Thursday about a second grade teacher in Urbana accused of sex crimes against his students at Thomas Paine Elementary. 26-year-old Jon White of Normal was formally charged  with predatory criminal sexual assault. The three seven-year old girls told police it started at the beginning of the school year in September. The students say their teacher told them it was their secret game. White was arraigned and pleaded not guilty to the charges. In court, prosecutors read a shocking statement from each of the girls. Each described the same sex game. They told police they were blindfolded during what they called "the taste testing game."  The school district says a background check was done and turned up nothing. If found guilty he could spend life in prison.
