   An ex-Hunter College High School staffer allegedly propositioned   
   one of his female students in his office and forcibly kissed   
   another teen girl, court papers charge.   
      
   During the meeting on the Upper East Side campus, Asumana   
   Randolph, 62, allegedly told the girl, who was younger than 17   
   at the time, that he’d previously had sex with a student at her   
   apartment, according to a criminal complaint.   
      
   He said he had similar feelings for her and “asked her in   
   substance if she wanted to have a similar closer relationship,”   
   the complaint states of the alleged creepy come-on that occurred   
   at about noon in his office on Oct. 1, 2018.   
      
   Four months later, the former science club coach and lab   
   technician allegedly repeatedly kissed another female student,   
   who was under 17 at the time. The alleged incident happened at   
   about 7 p.m. on school grounds, court papers say.   
      
   Randolph, who worked at the school for 26 years, was arraigned   
   Thursday night in Manhattan Criminal Court on two counts of   
   endangering the welfare of a child, one count of forcible   
   touching and one count of sexual abuse. He was released without   
   bail.   
      
   He resigned last year after the allegations surfaced and the   
   school launched an investigation, according to spokeswoman   
   Deborah Raskin.   
      
   “Immediately following the accusation, we put him on leave and   
   began an investigation which resulted in disciplinary charges,”   
   she said. “He resigned shortly thereafter. During this process   
   we have been cooperating with the District Attorney’s office and   
   are continuing to do so.”   
      
   Randolph’s lawyer, Patrick Brackley, said his client will fight   
   the charges and that many in the community are backing him.   
      
   “Although the lack of merits of the case will be discussed at   
   the appropriate time, there has been an unbelievable outpouring   
   of support from prior students and other individuals toward this   
   most remarkable man.”   
      
   Notable alumni of the prestigious and highly selective high   
   school include “Hamilton” creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda   
   and State Senator John Liu.
