Gilman outright failed to report rumors of faculty giving the boys alcohol. They can absolutely be sued for that. They have a legal obligation to report anything like that. Talk with your sons, people, even if they were former students there. This can easily escalate into a huge lawsuit and payouts, considering the perp was there for 15 years.


Well, first you’d have to prove that they actually knew about it, not “they must have known”.

If they were culpable, they should pay. But people are very naive to believe that an abuser can’t conceal abuse. They can, and do.


All it takes is one parent to report to detectives that they had asked a school employee if they heard about the kids getting booze from Chris. It’s already happened. At that instant school was legally required to contact police.


Again, you seem to be confusing civil and criminal liability. The police are going to be focused on locating victims and getting their story, not possible negligence by the school.

Teachers and admin are mandated reporters and can be prosecuted for failing to report.

Mandated reporting applies to physical or sexual abuse, or neglect. While giving booze to minors is illegal, there is no legal mandate for reporting

If Gilman faculty were legally required to report every instance they knew of adults giving alcohol to students, there would be a lot of Roland Park parents getting reported every Monday after hosting parties for their kid and friends over the weekend

Cops will determine who at Gilman participated in the cover-up of the rape of the boys. It had been going on for years and years. Perp figured he could keep doing it for another 15 years as long as the board would continue with business as usual.

Most of us know schools aren’t responsible for parent behavior, silly. But schools certainly are responsible when they fail to immediately notify authorities of suspected illegal teacher activities with students. Rape is truly the most heinous crime imaginable.

A lot of people are assuming there were no reports made to law enforcement. The police frequently botch these types of investigations. Look at the Larry Nassar case. Even the FBI dropped the ball and further enabled that sexual predator.

I do not believe there a single report made to police about this particular teacher.

There’s zero evidence to back up your assertion that people ant Gilman covered up his rapes for years annd years. Or at all. And while he was a teacher there since 2007 (?) he probably began his criminal behavior gradually and by degrees. God, this breaks my heart.

A meticulous investigation will determine any neglect by the school. I’d expect each and every staffer to be questioned under oath, yes?

Parents can come to police anonymously with any information they may have, without fear of retaliation from the school. All of this requires diligence and lots of time.

Okay, you’ve made up a whole story. IF Gilman covered it up, they should be held accountable. There’s zero evidence so far that they did. Let’s wait until there’s some actual evidence before going nuts about a coverup, okay?

You don’t know that. A teacher could have very well made a report recently or in the past that wasn’t taken seriously or pursued by local police. You just don’t know at this point.

Again, the detectives will figure out how this went on for 15 years. Check your comprehension. They know that men don’t turn into pedophiles overnight. He was a pedophiles the day Gilman hired him at age 23. Just ask anyone knowledgeable in this field. We’ll never know how many boys suffered sex abuse at that school. It’s a real tragedy. Fifteen years is a long time to carry on with something like this. But who knows, maybe they’ll decide his pedophilia suddenly came out of no where just last year, and there are no other victims.
On the other hand, news reports said boyS were forced to run naked in the park. Can you imagine?

Wow, that’s a lot of words to say “since I don’t have proof, I’m going to perseverate on what I think must have been the case”. Proof will come, or it will not. Your deep conviction proves nothing.
