Abstract
Davidson Jean Baptiste, a Broward Community College security guard, was caught on tape stealing an exam from the locked offices of BCC professor Ahmed Fuad Khan. The tape shows Baptiste talking on the phone while rummaging through Khan's desk. After discovering the exam, Baptiste leaves the office but returns 10 minutes later to replace the exam. Professor Khan setup the surveillance after he became suspicious when a poorly performing student suddenly aced a test. Khan believes Baptiste may have copied the exam and given it to his spouse, who was this student. While the police were notified and filled out a report, a police spokesperson said that BCC did not wish to press charges. According to the Florida Department of Agriculture, which is responsible for licensing security guards in the state, BCC never filed a report about this incident. Both the BCC president and the north campus provost declined to comment about this incident.
