High School student expelled for porn back in school

COCOA, Fla.  – A central Florida high school student who says he was expelled from school after performing in a gay adult film is being allowed to return to school.

Brevard County School District officials said Jan. 21 they were wrong to punish 18-year-old Robert Marucci and that he may resume his senior year at Cocoa High School.

Michelle Irwin, a district spokeswoman, told WKMG-TV that “No child would ever be suspended for a job that they have outside of the school environment.”

Marucci said school officials initially told him the reason for his suspension was for making threats, which he denies.

He says he did nothing wrong and appeared in the film to help his family pay bills. It was published on popular gay porn site SeanCody.com. His initial suspension caused a protest by dozens of classmates last week.
