The Camas High School principal has resigned after backlash over a post she made on Facebook about the death of Kobe Bryant.
The Camas School District announced Friday that administrators had accepted the resignation of Dr. Liza Sejkora.
District staff will communicate with families regarding a transition plan in the coming days.
Sejkora was put on administrative leave earlier in the week, after threats were made against Sejkora.
The situation began when Sejkora made a social media post to her private Facebook page in the aftermath of Bryant’s death. Sejkora wrote, “Not gonna lie. Seems to me that karma caught up with a rapist today.”
Sejkora was referencing rape accusations from 2003 against the NBA icon, who died in a helicopter crash that killed eight other people.
Sejkora told FOX 12 this week that her post was “distasteful” and she deeply regretted it.
“You know, they say hindsight is 2020. I think in that visceral response to his death, I made a really bad choice, posted something that was in bad taste, and that’s what I’d like to rebuild from,” Sejkora told FOX 12 this week.
Superintendent Jeff Snell released a statement earlier in the week that said district staff members strive to provide a high standard for students, and “This situation did not meet that standard.”
On Friday, Sejkora said in a statement, “Students and staff deserve to have a learning environment free of disruptions.”
Students had planned a walkout from campus Wednesday, but it did not take place, as many students left school earlier in the day, expressing concern for their safety.
Administrators confirmed the Camas Police Department investigated several reported threats and rumors regarding the school, but they were not deemed credible.
She will probably get hired somewhere else as a principal after some time has passed...
In most cases, it is not a good idea to say that someone deserved to die...
“I’m really stupid. And, I’m gonna let everyone in the world know by posting it to the Internet.”
The issue I have with liberals over this is that the Kobe’s victim had her day in court to have the accusations aired out and a judgement was rendered. As far as I’m concerned, the system worked. Even if it did not work as the accuser wanted it to work.
Once a verdict has been rendered, there is no right to keep holding the accused responsible for the accusations.
Tell that to the Goldmans.
That's certainly appropriate for our legal system to take, but It doesn't require me or anyone else to ignore the facts. I can believe Bill Clinton raped Anita Broderick, and I can believe O.J. Johnson killed his wife, and I can believe Kobe Bryant raped a hotel maid. It may not have been good judgement for a principal to write it on a public forum, but that doesn't make it any less true. Being rich and good at sports doesn't give you immunity from the truth.
P.S...Guilty.
Ouch.
Re: In most cases, it is not a good idea to say that someone deserved to die...
True. Libs can’t even handle anyone saying that terrorists deserve to die.
You crazy.
I can believe O.J. Johnson killed his wife
************
Who is O.J. Johnson?
Yup....this is many in our “educational” elite
She looks like a “Karen” who wants to speak to your manager.
nope.
Who is O.J. Johnson?
= = = = = = = = =
Isn’t he ‘Oly’ on the SIMPSONS?
OR
a shopkeeper in ‘Blazing Saddles’.
“The Camas High School principal has resigned after backlash over a post she made on Facebook about the death of Kobe Bryant.”
Says a lot about free speech!
There was no trial because the victim was threatened with death and personal destruction.
The victim also had anal tearing and bruising on her neck as she claimed he bent her over a table and raped her.
If that’s the case why are libtards celebrating over Rush’s announcement?
The interesting thing is, this part of WA state used to be VERY conservative (it’s on the southern WA border, across the Columbia from Oregon and Portland.
The Portland house prices became so high that many the Lear Jet liberals moved to WA state (and no income taxes, better schools, low land prices, less building regs...) and have changed the “culture” of the area from red to deep blue.
