A former employee of the police department of Gainesville, Florida (GPD), was recently found guilty of having a sexual affair with a subordinate in violation of department policy, which he attempted to cover up by pressuring her to have an abortion.
According to the Alachua Chronicle, Caleb Young, a civilian program coordinator of community relations at the GPD, was using his position as the woman’s superior to threaten her employment if she didn’t get an abortion. Young, a married man with at least one child, was also charged earlier in October of 2023 with assault and battery of a police officer after an altercation at his son’s football game.
When a GPD lieutenant called the woman in June 2022 to investigate the situation, she at first denied any wrongdoing on Young’s part. Later, in August of 2023, she contacted the GPD and retracted her earlier statement, which she told the lieutenant she made because at the time she feared for her and her preborn baby’s safety. Now that her child had been born and she had no association with Young, she felt freer to pursue the matter.
An investigation revealed that the woman and Young began an affair in October of 2020. She became pregnant in March of 2022, and when she informed Young, he demanded she abort their child. Text messages revealed as a result of department investigation showed that she requested Young “do you self [sic] a favor and sign your rights over,” as she did not want to abort her baby. Young continued to insist on an abortion and on her resignation, and the subsequent investigation report noted “multiple texts from [the woman] during this time frame to both Young and others that refer to being forced to resign or have an abortion.”
The woman continued to refuse until he made a chilling comment: “You can go missing.”
Feeling threatened, she handed in her letter of resignation, which he crumpled and discarded and told her to write another as he deemed the hand-written letter “unprofessional.” When she did so, he terminated her at the end of the pay period rather than the end of the month as she requested. The investigation pointed out that Young had no authority to terminate her employment at the time, only to recommend her termination.
Men pressuring women into abortion as a means of control and to absolve themselves of the consequences of their choices is, tragically, nothing new. In fact, as Live Action News has reported, one study reports as many as 64% of post-abortive women felt pressured into the procedure that ended their babies’ lives.
Rather than being an easy way out, abortion is frequently used as a tool to oppress women, including by human traffickers and other predators who wish to avoid accountability. As Live Action News has demonstrated, the abortion industry enables this victimization of women to pad their bottom lines, as Planned Parenthood has repeatedly been caught covering for suspected sex traffickers.
As a result of the investigation, Caleb Young was found to have violated a city rule, that he acted with “immoral, unlawful, or improper conduct or indecency, whether on or off the job which would tend to affect the employee’s relationship to his/her job, fellow workers’ reputations or goodwill in the community.” According to the Chronicle, rather than being fired, he was allowed to resign.
But let me guess, the woman screwing her boss was not disciplined? I guess the poor waif didn’t know that was wrong.
” an easy way out,”
Yup, no mention of the “easy way in”!
Not blaming anyone here, but this could have been avoided.
Did you even read the article?
The woman was forced to resign by her supervisor because she refused to abort his kid. Then he tried death threats. She wasn’t even putting the squeeze on him for child support. She offered to let him relinquish parental rights.
I’m getting tired of trying to help you get past being ignored by the cool girls in highly school. 😆
Yeah and all of that is bad and he should have been fired and deserves all he gets. That said, she was riding her married boss. She deserves to lose her job too. But of course, women are sprays assumed to be innocent wide eyed waifs with no control over their fate.
The whore probably destroyed morale in that office. There were probably decent hard working women who didn’t get the same privileges as the bosses squeeze. They just got to work like normal, had to be on time, etc etc.
She should be fired too. That is, if you believe in equality for the sexes. If you think she deserves to keep her job, you are making the argument that women are essentially always children, incapable of making grown up decisions.
Is an affair between a superior and a subordinate truly consensual? Do you think a man who threatens the life of the mother of his unborn child would really have had any scruples about suggesting the termination of a woman who refused his advances?
Homely and chubby also don’t seem to be adjectives particularly useful in the art of rhetoric…
Never dip your pen in the company ink...
SHE.WAS.FIRED.! SHE.WAS.THREATENED.! THE.MAN.WAS.THE.SUPERVISOR.! THE.MAN.WAS.MARRIED! THE.MAN.COMMITTED.ADULTERY.! WHO’s.THE.HOE.HERE?
Imma make a snap diagnosis of your post and projection springs to mind based on all of the “probably’s” you threw around that weren’t in the actual story. Its a cry for help. Talk it out with a counselor.
