You are an awful person. You are advocating for more rape? What is wrong with you? Seriously go and do some internal soul searching.

I don't agree or support the actions of the accused, but I also don't wish rape on anyone, let alone 15 year olds.

Not even when those 15 year olds gang rape their classmates in a locker room?

What they did was horrendous and beyond the pale - but I still think they should be charged as juveniles. It sounds as if there was a culture where they assumed this was "normal" behavior. I'm thinking that some adults fell down on their responsibility to make the correct values clear and allowed this toxic culture to flourish. And NO, I am not excusing what happened. These kids should be punished!! But as an adult? I'm uncomfortable with that.

I'm fine with it. It's highly likely that a judge will ultimately remand the case to juvenile court. But there needs to be some serious deterrence to this kind of behavior ever repeating. And having names out in the press permanently is one way to do it.

I can't believe they are being charged as adults. I don't disagree, I'm just in shock by the entire incident. So very sad, so many lives permanently affected.

I think he wasn't too bright, and afraid of battling anything out or making a mistake. I left because I felt uncomfortable working with some awful people who kept returning year after year. A stronger principal would have written them up enough times to put them on par, at least. Overall, the net effect is that kids pay a price.

What??? How did staff know the teacher was texting students in off hours? A parent or a student brought that piece of information forward to the principal and the teacher kept texting? Does that employee still work in MCPS?

I don't think he's still texting, but he's still teaching and coaching. It's possible someone spoke to him, because it was brought to admin's attention by a parent. Or possibly he stopped because the parent was directive with him herself.

MCPS makes me sick. Texting creates a black and white paper trail. Why would MCPS keep a teacher and a coach who was texting with a student?

How would MCPS know he actually had stopped? Wait for another parent to catch him?

If the principal changes, would the new principal even know he was caught before?

You should start a new thread for this. It really deserves it's own discussion.

Once a parent catches a coach with that type of violation, I would never give my child permission to be on the team?

Nobody seems to be asking about why the culture of this school or community seems to have resulted in non-consensual, homoerotic kink being part of their JV football team's locker room activities. Shoving foreign objects into peoples body cavities against their will is just unnatural and depraved on a whole other plane of nastiness.
