A Bronx teacher identified as Mercedes Liriano is in the news again after she used her Department of Education email address to solicit hookups.
Mercedes Liriano — who last made waves when she helped “cancel” the white principal at MS 224 in Mott Haven over racism allegations — used her school address for the raunchy exchanges, according to a report by the Special Commissioner of Investigation for city schools.
“Voluptuous sexy AA female looking for dominant cpl — w4mw,” the subject line of one email exchange said, according to the SCI report.
“Hey still wondering if you are still interested??” the email read
Mercedes Liriano’s scandalous past saw her send racy pictures of herself, including bikini-clad holiday snaps, in open ended messages looking for a match.
The mom added in one of her seductive emails that she was seeking a three—some, unaware her school email could later track her conversations.
‘So what are you willing to do n not do?? I ask bc for us we both need to be pleased n would want to please you too. Have u done 3somes before??’ one of the messages read.
‘Hello my name is Mercedes aka Mercy. Here are some pictures of me. Hope to hear from you soon,’ she said in further email threads.
‘Indecent photographs were exchanged, and one of the emails contained pictures of a woman’s vagina and a woman’s buttocks,’ the investigation added.
The emails began at roughly the same time school principal Patricia Catania took over as interim acting principal of the school.
In February 2019, Mercedes Liriano claimed that Catania told her she wasn’t allowed to teach black history.
Catania contended that she merely told the teacher she needed to have an adequate lesson plan, legal papers say.
“Ms. Liriano immediately went on a loud tirade throughout the hallway and main office of the school, screaming words to the effect that I could not tell her she could not teach Black History,” Catania wrote in a deposition submitted as part of dueling legal claims over the matter.
Catania said she became the victim of a “smear” campaign by Liriano and others that led to her demotion.
Liriano’s lewd emails came to light in January 2021 as part of the discovery process in the lawsuits, according to the SCI report.
Liriano resigned in September 2021. SCI recommended the DOE place a “problem code” in her file that could prevent her from further employment in city schools.
