I am conflicted. I don't know anything about South Charleston High or this man. Is there any FReeper here that does? Do you think he did it?

Too early to make an evaluation.

Could be some sort of false accusation by some pissed off kid.

If it is indeed false, it’s going to have a chilling effect on involvement by adults in programs such as these. People are simply going to conclude it’s not worth the risk to their reputation. Unfortunately, the damage to one’s reputation isn’t only based on guilt... it’s about the seriousness of the charge.

Another way to look at it is that some victims of other molesters may now have the courage to come forward given the public reaction in the Sandusky case. Many victims are ashamed and fear not being believed; predators count on that. Seeing a sympathetic public can ease those fears.
