[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the article - "They also said in the statement that a former Sidwell administrator, who left the school in 2003, knew that Henderson had left his previous school because of allegations of inappropriate conduct but 'had no knowledge of the severity of the allegations as they now stand.'”

Reading between the lines, it sounds to me like he got hired at Sidwell 14 years ago by saying simply that an unfounded student accusation caused him to leave some prior school, and that the lack to police action was proof it was baseless.  But then when the former student called Sidwell last week, she described a more serious relationship, and then the teacher admitted it when questioned by Sidwell.  If something like that is what happened, then it sounds like Sidwell took the right action by immediately suspending him.[/quote]

My question is, why did said victim wait 14 years to call Sidwell and report this? The letter to Sidwell parents clearly says that they received the call "last week."[/quote]
