A 53-year-old former elementary school teacher in Miami-Dade County has been arrested and charged with multiple offences involving young female students, including showing obscene material, including photos and videos and lewd conduct.

Allegations Involving Students
According to the arrest report, the incidents took place across the 2024-2025 and 2025-2026 academic years.

Victims and witnesses reported several disturbing instances of misconduct:
- One student told detectives that Cardoso called her to his desk and displayed a photograph of himself n*ked in front of a mirror with his private parts exposed.
- The same student alleged that he showed her a p*rnographic video depicting an underage boy performing a s*x act with an adult woman.
- Other students reported inappropriate physical contact, including being slapped on the buttocks, having their hair stroked, and being told they were "beautiful" despite asking him to stop.
- An additional victim stated that Cardoso attempted to kiss her after leaning in toward her.
School District Response and Investigation
Miami-Dade County Public Schools addressed the arrest in a public statement issued on Monday, September 14, expressing deep concern over the allegations.
