[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WaPo article says allegations were made by a former (not current) student who claims that during her time at the high school one of the SROs engaged in inappropriate conversations with her about her sex life. The article noted there are 2 SROs at the school who have both been assigned there for 4 years so it is implied those same officers had to have been working at the school when the alleged conversations took place and they’re only 2 SROs so it had to be one of them.

Personally I find this to be rather strange that a former student suddenly appears now to make this claim. [/quote]

You don’t know that it’s “sudden.”  Maybe the former student recently left or  transferred to another school, opened up to someone about the situation, didn’t come forward earlier because of fear, etc.  It’s also possible more victims will now speak up.  Let’s let the investigation run its course.[/quote]

That sure is a lot of speculation, after condemning speculation. You can’t have it both ways, and the hypocrisy is what drives many people crazy and causes resentment among citizens. I agree a thorough investigation is warranted and I look forward to learning the results. I hope if they allegation turns out to be true the SRO is fired and I would be incredibly sad the girl/woman didn’t, for whatever reason, reach out for help when the allegation occurred and has suffered in silence until now. That being said, if the allegations turn out not to be true it will only add fuel to the fire and anger a lot of people that politics are still in schools. [/quote]

I wasn’t speculating, I was giving examples of what could happen in such a situation because people in the thread were already victim blaming and implying the complainant has anterior motives or an agenda (see the TWU comment).[/quote]
