Odd that you call him James.

Why is that odd? That’s his name

the FBI also traced one IP address to NCRC.

This exactly.

Sounds like there may not be many assets there since they were being kicked out of a rental and he's using a public defender.

Read the thread, low info poster.

The landlord wants to re-possess and occupy the property. The action is NOT for non-payment.

Public defenders are common in these cases, see Eleanor Hoppe thread. They are also very experienced.

Public defenders are not common for these cases unless the defendant is living in poverty which JC is obviously not. There’s an entire cottage industry of attorneys in the DC area that represent accused pedophiles with little notice on far lighter charges than these.

You are absolutely incorrect. Court appointed counsel (FPD or CJA) are common in these cases and you do not have to be living in poverty. Just need to show you cannot afford an experienced attorney.

You are incorrect. I have testified in support of child victims in preliminary hearings in which the pedo was represented by a billboard attorney. This was his professional focus. How many child victims have you stood up for in court?

I'll leave it at this: I have lots of experience in the DC federal court. From what you've said, it appears you may be a social worker, medical professional, or perhaps a guardian ad litem. Maybe even law enforcement based upon your use of "pedo." My guess is your testimony was before a local county or municipal court.

I have a feeling you are not from the DC area as the phrase "billboard attorney" is not really used here. We don't really have billboards in DC, NOVA or the MD suburbs near DC, so no lawyers advertising on billboards (thankfully). From what I have seen elsewhere, most of the lawyers in other areas that do advertise on billboards practice PI or DUI. While I am sure there are attorneys that focus their practice on representing pedophiles, they have to be few and far between. Apparently, you know one. For the most part, the lawyers representing defendants such as Carroll before the federal court in DC do not have these types of cases as their main professional focus.

Spot on take. Someone started using the term "billboard attorney" in this thread, and it's not a term used in the DC area, nor does it denote an actual top tier attorney.

Re: public defenders being common in these cases. I live in Baltimore, and Christopher Bendann was represented by Kobie Flowers, definitely not a public defender. I’ve seen child sex abuse charges listed as areas of practice on other defense attorneys’ websites as well. If you have the money, at least up here in Baltimore, you don’t take your chances with a public defender.

Agree. Someone slipped up.

Terrifying to think a predator like this had access to young children including mine. I never liked him but couldn’t articulate precisely why. He had a kind of coldness and a streak of hostility. I remember other Beauvoir parents telling me how wonderful and kind he was.

I’ll keep trusting my instincts.

Listening to your instincts is essential.

So true.
Ignoring your instincts = ignoring the red flags.

Literally all of the parents at NCRC call him James. Weird that you’re spending so much time on this thread when you aren’t a member of the school community.

There is nothing odd about calling him James, that’s his name and everyone at NCRC referred to him as James, parents and staff

No one is hiding anything, no cover up or whatever you think might be happening just because someone called him by just first name.

And most defendants in federal court would be extremely fortunate to be represented by an Assistant Federal Public Defender. They are absolutely top-shelf attorneys and, unless the defendant is shelling out six to seven figures, better than the alternatives. (For what it’s worth, Kobie Flowers is a former AFPD.)

There’s more than one poster critical of the school … and of course pointing out that we don’t know the facts yet is NOT some kind of conspiracy theory.

It’s not a conspiracy to wonder if a person who views and distributes child porn (not to mention encourages child abuse in an online forum) has abused children under his care over the decades he has worked at schools.
