Former state Rep. Michael Cardin, who is a teacher, has been arrested following allegations by a female student. He was charged with risk of injury and disorderly conduct.
Cardin is a longtime teacher who once brought his class to New Hampshire in 2000 to watch the political activities on primary night during the race between then-Vice President Al Gore and Bill Bradley, as well as then-Texas Gov. George W. Bush and U.S. Sen. John McCain.
