| Beauvoir really screwed up by letting this man walk off te property. Who knows how many children he has harmed since then. Shameful. |

Granted, he is a predator and a fiend and a criminal. He deserves to be caught and punished severely. But FBI Top Ten?!?! Taking a spot vacated by Bin Laden?!?!? Methinks Beauvoir has strong FBI/Department of Justice ties among their current families or governing board or both. Amazing the scope and breadth of D.C. private school connections . . . |

If I were a parent of a child harmed by Toth in the years since, I would strongly consider legal action against Beauvior.

So would I. My son was at Beauvoir during a year that Toth was a lead 3rd grade teacher. Though, he wasn't in his class, I've asked him about Toth. He's said consistently over the years that he never had a reason to talk to or be around Toth nor did he ever use the bathroom in his classroom. This is a really sick situation all around, the children weren't safe in their classroom nor at the school. |

| Have any families actually sued Beauvoir? |

I've wondered about that, too. My first thought, is that the enrollment contract may have a statement in it that holds the school harmless in such matters. Otherwise, Beauvoir has already been sued and settled with a confidentiality clause. I wish I had a copy of my contract handy right now. |

Once again the public mention of Eric Toth brings out those with personal grudges against Beauvoir(correct spelling) and its Head of School. Led by x.x., they slander the school and its leadership for acting immediately upon finding the compromising material, for removing him immediately from contact with students, for immediately notifiying the Cathedral police and the DC Police, for having him escorted from the campus, for contacting all parents in his classes personally, for promptly notifying the school community and for hosting open parent forums, including past parents. Their cooperation with the DC Police and the FBI gave those agencies ample time to take action against Eric Toth who did not immediately remove himself from the DC region.
Speculation on a matter of such sensitivity to individual children and families does little good except to satisfy the tastes of the salacious and malicious and does harm to a school community which worked hard and collaboratively to address this and other tragedies which befell it. Sadly, there are individuals who do harm to others. We are all possible prey to their evil intentions. However, when we are deceived by them, as a school or as a parent, we need to work on recovery. Unfortunately, there are clearly individuals on this and similar threads who have not overcome their own sense of grief and even their sense of guilt for having been deceived. It is unfortunate that this site continues to tolerate their deliberately false speculations and attacks. [ Edited to remove initials. ] |

Just a tip: If you want to accuse people of slander, don't include accusations against individuals identified by initials in your post. Also, your concern about this site tolerating deliberately false speculation and attacks would be more persuasive if you could provide an example of this site doing so. |

| It's the escorting rather than holding that seems to annoy people, esp those whose children have been molested since. |

Quite simply, I'm angry and disgusted at the lack of basic common sense and judgement displayed by the school's leader. Forgive and forget, really? Facts are facts, Toth is a pedophile who harmed children at Beauvoir and elsewhere.

The child would be the plaintiff, and even a parent cannot sign away their claim on an act that has not yet occurred. No, I do not believe there was any litigation. Not to defend Beauvoir, but the guy was a pro. He had already resigned from Beauvoir and was hired and going to teach at Potomac. He is a dog and a psycho, but was clearly a master manipulator not just of children, but their parents as well. Truly an evil man. What gives me some peace, and I have a son he taught, is its now near certain that he will be caught. Sexual abuse of children is frowned on greatly by both prison guards, and prisoners. He will likely be raped on a regular basis for the very long term in prison he will get, and the guards will be on smoke breaks every time it happens. Hey Eric, you read this site. Turn yourself in and do 20, instead of the 40 you will get staying on the lamb. Get a prison where you will be safe as a condition of turning yourself in. You are screwed any which way. You did wrong. Admit it, do your time, and get help, with some prospect of being free in time and while you will still have 20 or 30 years to live in peace. You are not now free, nor will you ever be when they catch you. You should turn yourself in, let the system work, and serve the time you owe. And then spend your 50's and 60's making some amends as best you can. |

I don't know much about this story, but it doesn't seem like such a huge error in judgement for the school to have escorted him off the property and called the police. The fact that he ran and also became unfindable seems like an outcome that the school could not have been expected to predict. In the vast majority of cases, the police would have picked him up at his home and it would have ended there. If they had tried to detain him and he had become violent and hurt someone at the school, there would be people who would be here complaining about that outcome. Blaming the school for not foreseeing a very unlikely outcome seems a bit unfair.
