   A former Long Branch elementary school teacher, who lives in Tinton Falls, has been charged with sexually assaulting a 10-year-old student, said Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher J. Gramiccioni.

Gustavo Barrientos, 53,  is charged with first degree aggravated sexual assault and second degree endangering the welfare of a child. Through the investigation, law enforcement learned that while employed as an elementary school teacher in the Long Branch School District, on multiple occasions, Barrientos would show a 10-year-old female student pornography and sexually assault her.
The investigation was the product of a joint investigation by members of the Long Branch Police Department and the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office Special Victim’s Bureau.

Barrientos was taken into custody on Feb. 14 and transported to the Monmouth County Correctional Institution in Freehold Township pending a detention hearing.
