As a concerned parent of Ault Elementary School, I am both angered and terrified that Lifetouch Company, which had been found in Epstein records, is involved with our children. This is not just a company taking school pictures; it's a company connected to a monstrous scandal involving one of the most infamous perpetrators of heinous crimes against children. For a parent, this is utterly unacceptable.

Lifetouch Company has been contracted for years to take our children's school pictures. These moments capture the joy and innocence of our kids, a snapshot of their youth that we cherish forever. However, knowing that this company has ties to the Epstein Files irreparably tarnishes those memories. This is not a baseless accusation; Epstein's associations, as uncovered in numerous investigations, showed alarming connections to child endangerment activities.

According to the FBI, over 600,000 children go missing each year in the U.S alone, and maintaining ties, however indirect, with entities linked to child exploitation raises significant concerns for our children's safety. Lifetouch’s link to Epstein, even if seemingly peripheral, cannot be dismissed lightly when the safety of our children is on the line. Trust is the foundation of our community, and parents entrust their children to schools expecting the highest standards of care, free from association with any company with a tainted record.

Our demand is simple yet critical: We call upon Ault Elementary School administration to immediately sever all ties with Lifetouch Company and find a new, trustworthy provider for school portrait services. There are numerous reputable companies that can provide this service without such distressing backgrounds. The continued association only serves to fuel fears and mistrust within our school community.

We must act now to safeguard our children’s innocence and ensure peace of mind for parents. Sign this petition and help us urge Ault Elementary School to take immediate action and remove Lifetouch from all future engagements.
