[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP - That was a terrible story but that’s not what the other OP’s are thinking of (I think?).

It was a very specific article that talked about how MCPS kept a list of suspects and somehow it got leaked.

Unfortunately I can’t remember if it was WaPo or someone else.[/quote]

Here it is...

If this is true, I'm surprised no parent has sued the school about this.[/quote]

It is true and they have.[/quote]
Wow. MCPS has a list of 222 employees suspected of child abuse. What???[/quote]

Where is the PP who is always on here defending MCPS with regards to sexual assault incidents?  I’m waiting for him/her to come on and say that 222 is just a small percentage of MCPS employees so we shouldn’t stress about it.[/quote]

I'm one of many people who have been here "defending" MCPS. I went to your link, and it does not seem to me to be authoritative or reliable, and it is definitely not substantiated anywhere in any other news outlets. One single "concerned parent" claims to have seen this database of 222 people. It sounds a lot to me like Joe McCarthy claiming there were 81 communists in the State Department. (Do you know who that is?) This woman may have seen a list of employees on probation for something or a list of employees about whom someone had complained or anything at all really. This is unsubstantiated, inflammatory "news" from a single source who is on a mission. Fortunately, MCPS teaches its students information literacy.[/quote]

Another "not authoritative or reliable" news story about MCPS and their secret database of staff with "inappropriate or suspicious behavior toward children."

MCPS wouldn't tell WUSA9 who is on it, but we've learned the school system keeps a "confidential database" of personnel who demonstrate "inappropriate or suspicious behavior" toward children - a watch list of suspected abusers who are working in area schools.
