We had a similar situation here some years back. A student told his parents that a very popular teacher had touched him inappropriately. The parents went to the principal the next day, and the teacher was put on administrative leave pending investigation. Students at the school made life so miserable for the student, he had to transfer out of there.
It took a while, but in time anothers victim from a youth group the teacher had been involved with came forward with similar stores about the teacher. Still, he received support form those who could not be swayed no matter what he’d done.
Sooner or later, people will have to take care of business. Because the justice system is offering less and less justice.
