A nerdy teacher at prestigious Brooklyn Tech High School had sexual relationships with at least seven female students — and rewarded some of them with perfect grades, authorities said Tuesday.
Teacher Sean Shaynak “would routinely give [one teen] 100s in his class even though she turned in work with no answers,” Brooklyn prosecutor Joseph Mancino said at the suspect’s arraignment.
The bespectacled, bow-tied professor, 44, “groomed’’ his young victims for sex while teaching math and science at the famed school, which counts Mayor Bill de Blasio’s son, Dante, among its students, authorities said.
Prosecutors presented a long list of disturbing behavior by Shaynak.
He forced himself on the girl he had given perfect grades to when she refused to engage in a particularly graphic sex act; he had bestiality porn on his computer; and he took another female student on a “terror ride” from Queens to Brooklyn that ended with her becoming so scared, she ran and hid in some bushes while he “screamed and banged on the car,” Mancino said in court Tuesday.
“We did multiple searches and found on his computer [videos of sex acts between] humans and dogs to humans and horses,” Mancino said.
A licensed pilot, Shaynak also ran the school’s Aerospace Club — where he was known to cozy up to the prettiest students.
“He’d always have students come visit him, kids that were not in the club, mostly very good-looking girls, the best-looking girls in our school,” said Alan Chambers, 16, a junior in the club.
Shaynak, who lives in Flatbush, was busted in August after allegedly sending a “selfie” of his penis to a female student.
Once investigators pored through his computers and phones, they discovered evidence — thousands of texts, photos and videos — that he had sexual relationships with girls ages 13 to 19 starting in 2011, authorities said.
“The defendant clearly looked to groom these students,” Mancino said as Shaynak was held on $1 million bail.
