I guess I live in a cave, for a story that got ‘international headlines’ this is the first I’ve heard of it.
I couldn’t care less that the victim was gay, this scum deserves 21 years, at least. Someone’s sex issues have nothing to do with it.
If you read all the details, it’s not that simple.
I don't think there's anything to prepare a heterosexual youth to be extremely sexually harassed by a cross dressing homosexual who is protected and encouraged by the vice principal in all his actions.
The kid finally popped and it cost a life. The school is at fault for encouraging the cross dresser's obvious mental disorder and protecting him from the consequences of his actions. In doing so, he pushed another child beyond his ability to cope with the situation.
Scum? I don't know that, but I'd be hard pressed not to be violent towards any homosexual who sexually harassed my children. It is a deeply perverted and sick behavior that simply doesn't compute within the realms of sanity.
