 Some questions surrounding an Urbana teacher who's been accused of playing sex games with his seven-year-old students have spread to McLean County. Police in Normal say they don't have enough evidence yet to determine if there was a crime. They say they still have quite a few questions to get answered, but they're starting to put some pieces together. Officers there are working with a children's advocacy group to interview students. They talked to one student today they'll question at least four others tomorrow. Officers have also subpoenaed White's personnel record from the school district in Normal. They say that file has emails between district staff members about what they call "inappropriate" incidents. They say the investigation's just starting to take shape. "We are at very early stages right now," says Normal Police Department's Kirk Ijams. "If you think of a big puzzle, we have just a few pieces. So we have a lot more to look into." One mother told police her child believes other teachers knew about White's behavior. So Normal police may also interview teachers from the two schools white taught at.
