About Case

According to Barrington Police, Langlois was working as a bus monitor transporting children from the Barrington School District.  He was employed by Ocean State Transit.  

Police said the initial complaint was reported to the Barrington Police Department on June 12, 2025, and an investigation was initiated in conjunction with the RI Attorney General’s Office. 

“This investigation was complicated and required a deliberate and thoughtful approach considering the seriousness of the allegations and  the vulnerability of the victims,” said Police Chief Michael Correia. “I would like to thank the impacted victims and their families, the Barrington school community, as well as the entire Barrington community for their patience.”

Langlois was arraigned on Thursday at 11:00 AM in Providence Superior Court. Bail was set at $10,000 with surety, and a No-Contact order was issued.

The alleged incidents involved two female juveniles between the ages of 5 and 12 years old.  

“The Barrington Police Department is asking anyone with additional information to contact the Detective Bureau.  All new information and leads will be investigated,” said Correia. 

“At this time, we cannot disclose further details to protect the integrity of our investigations and student privacy. Once our investigations are complete, we will share any details we can to the fullest extent the law allows,” said Acting Superintendent Chris Ashley. “We are sickened by these incidents. Nothing matters more than the safety and well-being of our students.”

“Our families and community deserve answers and accountability,” said Ashley. “And above all, our children deserve safety, respect, and care. We will not stop until we are certain that every step has been taken to deliver all three.”
