I don’t know why schools administrators seem to think that they are above the law or outside the law, or that they don’t have to follow ordinary legal proceedings when dealing with lawbreakers, but they act as if they are sovereign and not bound by the laws that apply to the rest of this country and society outside the public school system.
They’re sanctuaries for criminals, who only get rewarded for their criminal behavior by continually getting away with it and everybody knows it, and everyone knows that everyone knows about it.
This case is a new angle on an old rape case, with this new wrinkle popping up completely unexpected. Right now the only info in the Pittsburgh media is from the lawyer. One can imagine that the school district is restricted in what they can say at this point. BTW, the school district is one of the ritziest in the South Hills suburban area - full of liberals who voted for Obama.
