AISD, APD relations sour further after new sex assault charge A police search warrant filed last month in district court alleged that AISD Superintendent Heath Burns obstructed an investigation into Trook’s actions. Among the charges made in the affidavit were that Burns had instructed staff to hide physical evidence from investigators serving the warrant and that he was “aggressive” with officers. In the subsequent weeks, the relationship between Burns and Abilene Police Chief Stan Standridge soured further. At one point, Standridge said he had “firm knowledge” that Burns or members of his staff interfered with the police investigation. The issue came to a head during a news conference Tuesday, where Standridge said Burns did not apprise him of information that could have prevented the sexual assault of another student.
