It's hard to refrain from making yet another critical comment about the public school system at a time like this.

This was reported on Fox 53 last night and appears on WTAE's web site, but not on the newspaper web sites nor on other TV sites. Could it be they do not find it newsworthy?

Why is this guy out on bond--do they want to give him time to rape a few more little girls? It seems to me that he should at least be monitored.

Don't bother. It speaks for itself.

"Defend"?

Given Jesse's tendencies and hiring preferences, he'll offer the guy a job at twice what he's making now.

It's on the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review web site. Here is the link since articles on the Trib web site won't cut and paste.

The Post-Gazette also reported the story but buried it in their "city briefs" section of their website.

Click on my screen name for over 125 FR posts on other crimes committed by those connected to our government schools. It is chilling what is occurring. And how few cases make national news.

Thanks for the ping. Very mixed messages here. Child rape is VERY VERY serious business and I wouldn't think that a DA would hand down an arrest like this without extremely good evidence -- esp. for a "black leader". Yet, . . . he's out on bond!

I'm new to the area. Why is he a "former" SB president? Is it because of these charges?

Also, there might be some internal Pittsburgh Democratic party politics involved. How does he relate to the Murphy/O'Donnell factions in the city?

Ouch!

But you're right. : )

Then hand him over to the 'father'.
