    So kid's outside the school aren't attractive enough? Do you ever research and review what you're saying?
  • TEACHERS KEEP YOUR DISGUSTING HANDS OFF OUR CHILDREN. PARENTS THE SCHOOLS DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR CHILDREN START HOMESCHOOLING YOUR CHILDREN FOR THE SAFETY OF YOUR CHILD.

    Maybe if laws were HARSHER for these despicable, life-changing crimes, there would be less!!

    There are somethings that are unacceptable. Two things I looked forward to in elementary school was lunch and recess. A teacher separating students from their peers is beyond a red flag. The school should be held accountable.

    Sickening It breaks my heart. We are failing children on so many levels as they are being exploited, abused, misled, brainwashed & confused. How do these people not only go through the trouble of becoming teachers or in jobs that out them near kids only to commit despicable crimes that harm children & get them in serious trouble. It boggles the mind. We are seeing so many instances of this happening. Also we seeing young 20 to 30 something teachers including women who are SAing teenagers. Are they sick prior to these jobs? It makes you think. Do they go into these jobs to get close to kids to commit these heinous crimes or do they go off the deep end after they start getting close to kids? It’s probably a mix but I be many of them, at least half, already had issues & disgusting impure thoughts about minors prior to working in these positions. We are seeing new crimes like this almost daily. It’s nearing epidemic levels which is scary. Parents not only have to worry about what stuff they are teaching kids but who’s teaching them now. We live in awful times. Why are there so many bad & unhinged people out there?

    He was also a Pastor at a Gig Harbor Church, so this investigation is barely beginning. He is also married with kids.
  • Of course he's a pastor. What is it with these religious cults and the constant diddling?

    The teacher was booked into pierce county jail where he’s expected to get his ass kicked on the hour of every hour until he tells us how many children he’s harmed. I don’t stand for this predatory behavior of a wolf in sheep’s clothing. There’s most definitely other survivors!
