High school dance teacher faces felony charge for alleged student sex scandal



A South Carolina teacher is facing a criminal charge for having an alleged sexual relationship with a student, according to police.

Victoria Katherine Montgomery — a 32-year-old woman from Bluffton — was arrested Friday and charged with a felony count of sexual battery with a student who is 18 years of age or older, where there is direct supervisory authority; no aggravated force, according to Beaufort County jail records.

'We are taking this very seriously.'

Despite the student being 18 or older, Montgomery reportedly was charged with a felony because she had “direct supervisory authority” over the alleged victim.

Montgomery reportedly was released from the Beaufort County Detention Center on Saturday morning on a personal recognizance bond.

Montgomery is a dance teacher at Hilton Head Island High School. She is the head of the school's arts department, according to the school's website.

A since-deleted Facebook post from the high school stated that Montgomery began teaching there at the start of the 2021-2022 academic year after relocating from Flint, Michigan.

The Island Packet reported that an individual last Wednesday tipped off principal Steve Schidrich about an alleged teacher sex scandal.

School officials immediately notified the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office and placed Montgomery on paid administrative leave after the sexual abuse allegations surfaced.

WCBD-TV obtained the following statement from the Beaufort County School District: "We have become aware of a situation involving a staff member and student at HHIHS. Because this involves both a personnel matter and a law enforcement investigation, we are unable to provide additional details or comment further."

The statement continued, "We recognize that situations like this can raise concern, and we are taking this very seriously. The situation is being addressed accordingly in cooperation with law enforcement."

Lt. Danny Allen of the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that there is an active investigation into the accusations of an inappropriate relationship between a teacher and a student at the high school.

However, police did not offer any further details about the alleged sexual abuse.

The Daily Mail reported that investigators believe the alleged victim is a student of Montgomery.

District spokesperson Candace Bruder noted that all of Montgomery's classes will be taught by a "certified educator or a substitute teacher, and families of students enrolled in these courses will be notified via email."

Depending on the outcome of the investigation, Montgomery could face disciplinary action or even termination. The South Carolina Department of Education also may revoke her teaching license.

Tucker Carlson implores Trump admin to 'rescue' Russell Brand ahead of 'absurd' UK trial



Tucker Carlson said Friday that the Trump administration should come to Russell Brand's "rescue," suggesting that the actor and populist commentator slapped with sexual assault charges last month "has no shot at a fair trial because Britain is no longer a free country."

The Metropolitan Police of London announced on April 4 that Britain's Crown Prosecution Service authorized them to charge Brand, 49, with one count of rape, one count of indecent assault, one count of oral rape, and two counts of sexual assault.

Police first launched their investigation in September 2023 after a trio of liberal media outfits — the Sunday Times, the Times (U.K.), and Channel 4 — detailed sexual misconduct allegations against Brand raised by four women.

One woman claimed Brand raped her in 1999; another said she was indecently assaulted in 2001; a third claimed she was orally raped and assaulted in 2004; and a fourth woman claimed she was sexually assaulted between 2004 and 2005. The accusers have not been identified.

Brand, who remarried after his divorce from Katy Perry and now has three children, denied the allegations and stressed that all of his relationships have been consensual. He insinuated further that there may be an insidious "agenda at play" aimed at silencing him.

'He criticized the government for using Covid to turn the UK into a totalitarian state.'

Around the time that Channel 4 originally debuted the sexual assault allegations, the British government attempted to pressure Rumble and other social media platforms to prevent Brand from being able to monetize his online content.

According to Canadian state media, Rumble called the request "extremely disturbing" and indicated it would not "join a cancel culture mob."

Whereas Rumble stood firm against statist pressure, YouTube suspended monetization of Brand's channel, citing harmful off-platform behavior despite the absence of a court conviction.

Carlson noted in his Friday post, which was subsequently shared by the accused, that Brand was a darling of the British liberal establishment until "he criticized the government for using Covid to turn the UK into a totalitarian state" at which point "the accolades abruptly stopped."

"A government TV station accused Brand of committing sex crimes against anonymous women they refused to name. Government officials called for his opinions to be scrubbed from the internet," continued Carlson. "Last month, British prosecutors charged Brand with rape and sexual assault. None of the charges are backed by hard evidence. All of them supposedly took place more than 20 years ago, one of them in the 1990s."

'I KNOW I'm innocent.'

"The entire case is transparently political and absurd, a near-identical replay of the fake rape charges authorities brought against Julian Assange 15 years ago," added Carlson.

Carlson made his plea within hours of Brand's Friday appearance at Westminster Magistrates' Court in London, where Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring reportedly granted Brand bail — on the condition that he keeps the court informed of where he is staying in the U.S. or U.K. — and ordered him to appear at the Central Criminal Court on May 30.

Ahead of his 12-minute-long court appearance, Brand noted, "If you're innocent, you WELCOME scrutiny. I welcome a trial — gladly — because I KNOW I'm innocent."

"Over the last few years, millions of foreigners have applied for asylum in the United States. Russell Brand actually deserves it. Say a prayer that the Trump administration comes to his rescue," wrote Carlson.

Shocking texts, secret 'memoir' reportedly reveal special-ed teacher's affair with student



New eyebrow-raising allegations have surfaced in the case against an Illinois special education teacher who is accused of having an "inappropriate sexual relationship" with a student. The teacher reportedly sent shocking text messages to the student and kept a secret "memoir" detailing her anger after the relationship ended.

As Blaze News reported last month, 30-year-old Christina Formella was arrested on March 16. She was charged with two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse and criminal sexual assault against a minor. Formella was released after her first court appearance on the conditions that she not enter school grounds and not have contact with anybody under 18.

'I love you sooooo much baby.'

Since 2020, Formella has been a special education teacher at Downers Grove South High School, where she was also a boys' and girls' soccer coach.

Formella reportedly was the alleged victim's soccer coach and tutor.

In December 2023, the then-28-year-old teacher allegedly sexually assaulted the boy when he was 15 years old.

The DuPage County state's attorney said in a statement that "the victim and Formella were in a classroom for a tutoring session before school began, when Formella sexually assaulted the boy."

“I love having sex with you," Formella allegedly wrote in a text message sent to the boy in 2023, according to court documents.

WGN-TV reported that the student said in a text message to his teacher, “I love you so so much mama.”

Formella allegedly replied, “I love you sooooo much baby… Even though this morning was short, it was perfect."

The student reportedly responded, “I know baby, it was perfect baby, so perfect.”

The illicit sexual encounter reportedly was the only time the pair was intimate. Both allegedly admitted that the sexual encounter was wrong, according to the New York Post.

The student allegedly ended the relationship, and the pair didn’t speak after February 2024, prosecutors said.

Formella reportedly became infuriated with the alleged victim for cheating on her.

The married teacher allegedly had a secret "memoir" in her phone's notes app.

Following her arrest, investigators searched her cell phone and allegedly discovered notes saying the student “cheated on me” and calling him “disgusting,” according to a petition to deny her pretrial release that People magazine obtained.

“We will never ever be together again,” Formella purportedly wrote. “I'm not a second choice. I'm the best thing you'll ever have even with all of my mistakes.”

In a section titled “Manifestations,” the teacher allegedly wrote that she expected the teen to "reach out" soon to "try to fix things between us."

“In the meantime, I’m going to live my best life knowing he’s not the person I thought he was and that he is beneath me,” she reportedly wrote.

When detectives pressed her about her notes, Formella allegedly claimed that writing was a way she dealt with anxiety. According to police, Formella said she didn't have sex with the student, and any reference to sexual content was a reference to her husband.

According to the petition, Formella claimed that “everybody comes after her because she is good-looking, and she is just a good person who cared too much about [the alleged victim].”

Formella allegedly described the boy as a "stalker."

As Blaze News previously reported, Formella allegedly told investigators that the student broke into her phone and sent text messages to himself to set her up for blackmail.

"She claimed that one day, [the boy] had grabbed her phone unattended, had entered her passcode ... had sent the message to his phone, had then deleted the message from her phone, and had saved it to his phone as blackmail," according to court documents.

Formella was arrested after the teen's mother found sexually explicit text messages on the boy's cell phone.

'I have a feeling I'm going to throw up.'

Recently released police bodycam video showing the moment Formella was arrested during a traffic stop.

The officer is seen on video requesting Formella step out of her vehicle.

Formella's confused husband says, "I don't understand what's going on here."

The officer does not explain the reason for the arrest.

"Once you get to the police station, you'll talk to the detective, and he'll explain everything to you," the officer is heard saying on the video.

Formella breaks down in tears and says, "I have a feeling I'm going to throw up."

The teacher is on paid leave from Downers Grove South High School.

Downers Grove South High School Principal Arwen Lyp wrote in an email to parents, "We are devastated, and our community is reeling. An adult has been charged with the most serious of violations, and trust has been broken. Our team is here to support students who are impacted by this terrible news."

Don Renner, president of the Board of Education of Community High School District 99, previously stated: "We are heartbroken for the victim and also for the hundreds of students, staff, and [families] who trusted this teacher and feel betrayed by this terrible situation. Our top focus now is to support for [sic] victim and their family."

DuPage County State's Attorney Robert Berlin said, "The allegations against Ms. Formella are extremely disturbing."

"It is alleged that she used her position of trust and authority as a tutor and a coach to sexually assault a minor student," Berlin continued. "The type of abuse and behavior alleged in this case will not be tolerated."

Formella is scheduled to appear in court on April 14.

Special education teacher fights molestation charges, claims student set her up for blackmail because she's 'good-looking'



The Illinois special education teacher accused of molesting a 15-year-old student is fighting back against the child sex crime accusations. The suspended teacher claims that the student set her up for blackmail and targeted her because she is "good-looking."

As Blaze News reported this week, 30-year-old Christina Formella was arrested and charged with one count of aggravated criminal sexual abuse (Class 1 Felony), one count of criminal sexual assault (Class 1 Felony), and one count of aggravated criminal sexual abuse (Class 2 Felony).

' ... she is just a good person who cared too much about [the boy].'

Formella – a married teacher at Downers Grove South High School — has been accused of sexually abusing a 15-year-old student in December 2023. At the time of the alleged incident, Formella was 28 years old.

Citing DuPage County prosecutors, the New York Post reported that the mother of the alleged victim bought her son a new phone and linked it to his iCloud account. After doing so, the mother allegedly discovered text messages about a sexual relationship between her son and Formella.

After the mother confronted her son about the alleged illicit relationship with Formella — his tutor and soccer coach — the mother and son went to the Downers Grove Police Department on Saturday to report the alleged sexual assault to authorities.

The student claimed that he and Formella "were in a classroom for a tutoring session before school began, when Formella sexually assaulted the boy," the DuPage County state's attorney said in a statement.

However, Formella claimed she was the victim of a potential blackmail scheme by the student, who targeted her because she's "good-looking."

"[Formella said] everybody comes after her because she is good-looking, and she is just a good person who cared too much about [the boy]," according to court documents obtained by the Daily Mail.

When investigators asked about the alleged sexually charged text messages to the student, Formella reportedly accused the student of breaking into her phone.

"She claimed that one day, [the boy] had grabbed her phone unattended, had entered her passcode ... had sent the message to his phone, had then deleted the message from her phone, and had saved it to his phone as blackmail," the documents read.

The student claimed to have ended their relationship, according to the New York Post.

DuPage County State's Attorney Robert Berlin called the accusations against the teacher "extremely disturbing."

"It is alleged that she used her position of trust and authority as a tutor and a coach to sexually assault a minor student," Berlin stated. "The type of abuse and behavior alleged in this case will not be tolerated."

Downers Grove Police Chief Michael DeVries described the child molestation allegations as a "deeply concerning case."

"The safety and well-being of our children remain our highest priority, and we will take all necessary actions to ensure that anyone engaging in this type of conduct is held accountable," DeVries added.

Formella has been in the special services department at Downers Grove South High School since the 2020-21 school year. She also coached boys’ and girls’ soccer.

Formella has been placed on administrative leave with pay, according to Downers Grove South High School Principal Arwen Lyp.

Formella was released from jail under the conditions that she not enter Downers Grove South High School, and she was ordered to have no contact with anyone under the age of 18.

Formella is scheduled to appear in court on April 14.

Feminism weakened our military — now it’s time to fix the damage



In the spring of 2003, the U.S. military spearheaded a major push in high schools nationwide to recruit young women. Military recruiters even called homes asking for high school girls by name.

Meanwhile, military recruiters handed out trendy military “swag” at schools to help boost recruitment efforts. This occurred against the backdrop of the tragic story of 19-year-old Pfc. Jessica Lynch, whom the enemy captured in the post-9/11 Iraq War.

Truly moral nations do not place their women on the front lines.

Her eight days in captivity and her dramatic rescue became a round-the-clock news event. Jessica’s story was initially romanticized to lure young women into military service. Many moms, however, sensed the “fake news” was not telling the whole story.

Jessica Lynch’s nightmare

The heinous reality of Lynch’s captivity, revealed in her authorized biography, “I Am a Soldier, Too,” shattered the romanticized narrative surrounding women in the military. In captivity, Jessica endured three hours of torture by several Iraqis, which included anal sexual assault and rape. Her spine was fractured, her arm shattered, multiple other bones were broken, and she suffered internal injuries.

By the grace of God, Jessica was rescued by U.S. special operations forces from behind enemy lines. When asked eight months later in an interview by ABC’s Diane Sawyer about the decision to include the brutal sexual assault in the book, Lynch — to her credit — said, “It was a decision to tell the reality, not selective parts, of a story of going to war.”

We owe Lynch a debt of gratitude for her honesty and courage in sharing such a painful truth.

Obama lifts the ban

In 2013, 10 years after Lynch’s rescue, the Obama administration officially lifted the ban on women serving in combat roles. In fact, women were already serving in combat when Obama initiated this major policy shift, even though Congress had not approved it.

The original policy only allowed women in combat roles if they met the same training standards as men. When they failed to do so, the Pentagon lowered the standards, weakening military readiness and effectiveness. Twelve years of data now justify reconsidering why women were banned from combat roles in the first place.

Beyond physical strength differences, other practical concerns make integrating men and women in training or war zones problematic. These include increased romantic relationships, sexual activity, higher rates of STDs, unintended pregnancies, abortions, and sexual assault. Military leadership ignored these concerns to push a political agenda.

Thankfully, the “roar to restore” was heard in the 2024 election.

Reinstating sanity

Moms for America is grateful to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for having the courage to say aloud that women — especially moms — do not belong in combat. Years of radical feminist indoctrination have led young women to believe there is no difference — physical or emotional — between men and women. Such indoctrination has misled women, marginalized men, and perverted the natural chemistry of relationships between them.

Strong, intelligent, determined, and accomplished women have long held critical noncombat roles in the military, including medics, nurses, doctors, intelligence analysts, communications specialists, cybersecurity experts, logistical specialists, linguists, and many others. These roles are no less essential to the military’s mission than the infantry.

Men and women possess incredible and unique gifts and, in some roles, can perform to the same standards. Yet men and women are different, and acknowledging those differences is not discriminatory.

The call to reinstate the ban on women in combat does not disrespect the valued women who serve in the military, the parents who have daughters in the military, or those women who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Instead, it is a call back to sanity — to evaluate and assess a policy that never should have been changed.

Lowering standards for women decreases the military’s effectiveness and strength to protect and defend America. Moreover, keeping women in combat puts them at the same risk of torture and rape that Jessica Lynch endured during active combat.

Truly moral nations do not place their women or children on the front lines.

The feminist left has demonized the God-given instinct of men to protect women since at least the 1960s. It is time to tell the truth again. It is OK to say that we want men to protect women — and we are grateful for it.

It’s time to protect once again America’s mothers and daughters: Ban women in combat.

Ex-student who impregnated teacher at 13, now an adult, wants her sexual assault charges dropped: 'I started everything'



An alleged sexual assault victim — who reportedly was only 13 years old when he impregnated his teacher during an illicit relationship — has come forward to call for the child sex crimes charges against the New Jersey woman to be dropped, according to a report.

The Daily Mail said it spoke to the former student — who is now an adult — and noted that he indicated that criminal charges against his former teacher should be dropped.

'I love her with all my heart. She was there for me and my family.'

"They need to drop all charges," the alleged victim said. "I wasn't groomed or raped or manipulated by her. She never initiated anything. I started everything."

He continued, "If it was up to me, she wouldn't have been in jail. It's been six or seven years. I'm 19, about to be 20."

His former teacher — 34-year-old Laura Caron — delivered a baby in 2019.

Caron is a fifth-grade teacher at Middle Township Elementary School, which is located in the community of Cape May Court House on the southernmost tip of New Jersey.

Caron taught the alleged victim and his brother, according to police.

As Blaze News reported last month, the purported victim's mother allegedly became friends with Caron. The mother let the boys and their sister stay at the teacher's house so she could take them to school.

An affidavit states that the children's father "explained that it began with 1 or 2 nights a week and eventually the children stayed with Caron permanently, from 2016 to 2020."

During Caron's first court appearance last month, the judge reportedly described Caron as a "resource family parent" for the children.

The sister of the alleged victim reportedly told investigators that the children would sleep in a shared room on the second floor of the teacher's house. However, the sister reportedly noticed that her brother sometimes was in Caron's bed the next morning.

WPVI-TV reported that the sister would see Caron enter the bathroom when the alleged victim was showering and lock the door behind her.

The alleged victim's brother told investigators that he witnessed Caron sexually assaulting his brother at a time when the two believed he was asleep.

'This stuff is so deep. Like the world has no idea what she has done for my family.'

According to court documents, the sister told investigators that she believed her brother was about 11 years old when suspicious incidents began happening.

However, the alleged victim in the Daily Mail interview rejected any suggestion that the purported sexual abuse happened when he was 11 years old and described the accusations as "crazy."

Caron delivered her baby in 2019 — when the alleged victim was 13 years old and she was 28.

Police launched an investigation into the teacher after the alleged victim's father reportedly made an eyebrow-raising post on Facebook in December 2024. The alleged victim's father pointed out that there was an uncanny similarity in appearance between himself, his son, and the newborn baby.

Caron was arrested on Jan. 15 and charged with aggravated sexual assault, sexual assault, and endangering the welfare of a child.

She faces more than 10 years in jail if convicted.

The legal age of consent in New Jersey is 16 years old. However, it is illegal for teachers or anyone with a “duty of care” over children to have sex with minors of any age, according to Prevent Child Abuse New Jersey.

Part of Caron's bail conditions include having no contact with her baby's alleged father.

The alleged victim recently told the Daily Mail that the court order has been "a lot" for him.

"I can't talk to them. I wish I could, but I can't, and it sucks," he stated.

The teen said the issues started with his father's Facebook post and that he is now estranged from his dad.

"This stuff is so deep. Like the world has no idea what she has done for my family," he said. "I love her with all my heart. She was there for me and my family."

Middle Township School District Superintendent Dr. David Salvo stated, "When the district was first advised of the allegations, the staff member was immediately placed on and continues to be on paid administrative leave."

Married mother arrested on 80 counts of statutory rape, indecent liberties with a child



A married mother from North Carolina has been arrested and charged with 80 counts of statutory rape, indecent liberties with a child.

Sara Jean Sellers — a 44-year-old from Shallotte — was arrested Friday.

The alleged victims were two boys who were 12 years old at the time of the reported child sex crimes, WWAY-TV reported.

The Brunswick County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement that Sellers was charged with a total of 80 child sex crimes: 20 counts of statutory sex offense with a child under the age of 15 years old, 10 counts of statutory sex offense with a child by an adult, 20 counts of statutory rape of a child under the age of 15 years old, 10 counts of statutory rape of a child by an adult, and 20 counts of indecent liberties with a child.

Sellers is being detained at the Brunswick County Detention Center. Sellers' attorney requested a $400,000 secured bond, but the judge set her bond at $2 million.

Sellers appeared in court Friday; prosecutors said the alleged child sex abuse happened between 2018 and 2019.

The alleged victims were two boys who were 12 years old at the time of the reported child sex crimes, WWAY-TV reported, adding that detectives have interviewed "two other boys."

Sellers' attorney reportedly stated in court that Sellers has been married for 22 years and has two daughters.

The investigation is ongoing.

The sheriff’s office stated that it "remains committed to protecting the community’s most vulnerable and ensuring that justice is served" and is urging anyone with information about the case or any others “who may have been victimized” to contact Det. Shepherd at 910-363-6976.

Anything else?

Citing statistics from Child Protective Services agencies, the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network reported that approximately 63,000 children are victims of sexual abuse annually — and 9% of child sex abuse perpetrators were women.

An estimated 66% of child victims are between the ages of 12 and 17, and statistics show that of the victims under the age of 18, 18% are male.

Statistics also show that one in nine girls and one in 20 boys under the age of 18 will experience sexual abuse or be the victim of a sexual assault.

Nancy Mace, Potential 2026 Primary Opponent Duke It Out After She Accuses Him Of Not Prosecuting Sexual Abuse Cases

'I will burn this system to the ground'

Once-prominent doctor — accused of sexually assaulting over 200 patients — indicted on rape charges



A once-prominent Massachusetts doctor accused of sexually assaulting hundreds of patients has been indicted on rape charges.

Derrick Todd is a Harvard-trained rheumatologist who had practiced at the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.

'This is criminal. He's a predator.'

A Middlesex County Grand Jury on Thursday indicted Todd on two counts of rape.

Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said in a statement, "The indictments are for two counts of rape alleging the sexual assault of two women who were his patients at the time of the assaults."

The alleged sexual assaults purportedly occurred during medical examinations in December 2022 and June 2023.

Todd on Friday morning appeared in court, where he pleaded not guilty to the rape charges.

The judge in the case ordered Todd to relinquish all of his medical licenses and forbade him to practice medicine and to have any contact with his alleged victims. Bail was set at $10,000 cash.

Todd's attorney, Anthony Abeln, previously said his client would "not litigate this matter in the media, but he will defend his care as the case progresses through the Massachusetts Superior Court system."

As Blaze News reported in October 2023, a class action lawsuit was filed against Todd over allegations of repeated sexual assaults during medical examinations.

Patients accused Todd of conducting unnecessary exams that were "performed for his own sexual gratification," according to the class action lawsuit filed in Suffolk County Superior Court.

The lawsuit notes that "these horrifying, traumatizing, and deplorable acts" took place "from at least as far back as 2011 and continuing through July 2023."

Despite the alleged sexual assaults happening for over a decade, patients only began to come forward with the accusations in the summer of 2023.

WBTS-TV reported that the lawsuit accused the Yale and University of Massachusetts graduate of sexually assaulting more than 200 patients and performing "unnecessary pelvic floor therapy, breast examinations, testicular examinations, and rectal examinations on more than 200 women and several men ranging from teens to people in their 60s."

Mimi DiTrani — a former patient who filed a lawsuit against Todd — told WBZ-TV that the rheumatologist opted for repeated gynecological exams and breast exams instead of conducting MRIs on her bones for her autoimmune rheumatological health issues.

DiTrani claimed that she "was sexually exploited, abused, harassed, and molested at the hands of serial sexual predator Defendant Derrick J. Todd." She also said the doctor asked her "a series of inappropriate, invasive, and exploitative questions about her appearance, sexual history, and sexual activity."

Lubin & Meyer attorney Robert Higgins, an attorney for the plaintiffs, declared that "this is criminal. He's a predator."

William Thompson of Lubin & Meyer stated, “It’s been a long wait for all of the 228 former patients who have come forward to date. And it serves as some vindication or acknowledgment that he is going to held accountable for what he has done to all the patients who put their trust in him as a physician.”

The lawsuit accuses the hospital systems of allowing Todd's alleged sexual abuse to take place while failing to "hire, supervise, manage, oversee, and retain competent medical providers who refrained from assault and inappropriate examinations of patients."

Todd resigned from the Brigham and Women's Hospital in July 2023 after the hospital conducted an internal investigation into the dozens of complaints.

“We also reached out to patients who were seen by Dr. Todd and offered extensive support for follow-up medical care, as well as assistance if they wanted to report their experience to law enforcement,” the Brigham and Women's Hospital said in a statement. “We take our duty to care for our patients and keep them safe extremely seriously.”

The hospital added, "We will continue to provide support and respond to our patients’ needs during this challenging time. We recognize the incredible courage it has taken for all patients who have come forward to ensure that this conduct was exposed.”

That same month, Todd resigned from Charles River Medical Associates.

In September, Todd signed a voluntary agreement with the Board of Registration in Medicine to stop practicing medicine anywhere in the country. The investigation into Todd's sexual assault accusations is ongoing.

Anyone with any information on the case is urged to contact the Framingham Police Department at 508-532-5924.
