Janitor accused of wiping his penis and anus on bread meant for kids in 3rd-5th grade

• A janitor in New Jersey was arrested on allegations he tampered with his school's food.
• They include that he wiped his genitals on kitchen utensils and sprayed cucumbers with bleach.

An elementary-school janitor was accused of spreading his saliva, urine, and feces on food due to be served to kids, horrifying his New Jersey community.

Giovanni Impellizzeri, 25, was arrested on October 31 and hit with a slew of charges including aggravated assault, child endangerment, and tampering with food.

He worked at the Elizabeth F. Moore School in Upper Deerfield Township, which teaches kids in grades three through five.

The alarm was raised on October 30 when school authorities received anonymous tips about Impellizzeri, per a probable-cause affidavit published by the Cumberland County Prosecutors Office.

The document cited Telegram videos which it said showed Impellizzeri using pieces of bread to wipe his "penis, testicles and anus" before putting them back to be served to kids.

He also spit on the bread, it said.

He also wiped "various utensils and items from the school" on himself, per the affidavit.

It said other clips showed him "masturbating and urinating on pillows and kitchen bowls."

It said another video showed him "spraying bleach into a container of cucumbers" later served children. It alleged that he had "the intention of harming the students" by doing so.

Impellizzeri was arrested the following day, authorities said. As of Sunday he was being held at the Cumberland County jail, per records seen by Insider.

The prosecutor's office said that investigators found items at the school seeming to match those in the video. It said it was not sure how long ago the acts in the video took place.

The accusations roiled the community in Upper Deerfield Township.

"I wanted to throw up," said Shatora Sheikh, a parent at the school who spoke to CBS News.

"I was sick to my stomach literally not knowing if my kids, my daughter, particularly that goes to that school, had eaten anything, touched anything."

Investigators are now collecting his bodily fluid samples to check whether students could have been exposed to any infectious diseases though Impellizzeri's bodily fluids, per a press release shared by Prosecutors.

Parents complained that they were given little information about the details, and that the school district's response was slow and inadequate.

A petition calling for the immediate resignation of the district superintendent, Peter Koza, had some 470 signatures as of Sunday morning.

The text of the petition said parents found out from a "robo-call recorded message," while their children were notified during class via their cell phones.

The prosecutors' office said health officials had been to the school to sanitize affected areas and throw out any items from the video.
