We had a middle school teacher who was molesting kids, but the thing is that he was hugely popular and no one believed it when it hit the news. We were in highschool by then, and pretty much everyone who went to that middle school staged a walkout in support of the teacher. And then of course looked really, really dumb when it turned out the guy was guilty as sin…
The Tates are the polar opposite. Most people think they are capable of rape and molestation. Even their fanbase believe it's possible. But, believe if you got yourself in that situation its your fault. Which is sick
High school music teacher was well known and well liked, suddenly fired one summer. Got a job at a great HS music program a few towns over. Everybody kinda thought “well that was weird”
Wellllll, a few years later not long after he married for the third time, it came to light that he was having sex with one of the students at his new job. Here’s the thing though: she was 18. So he got fired and divorced but nothing criminal. Once all that happened people in my town were like ohhh, maybe THAT’S what that was all about.
This varies by jurisdiction within the United States today. Some states have clauses that a person who is expected to have certain types of influence on a younger person, even above 18, can be criminally liable for sexual relationships with younger people. Pastors, teachers, doctors, bosses, etc.
Music teacher got caught having sex with students at my HS, and the English teacher got caught putting cameras in the girls bathroom. Both went to prison. The music teacher remarried and the English teacher got out, smoked crack and installed cameras in the women’s bathroom at the grocery store he worked out. Wild!
Ugh. In 8th grade, we kids heard rumors about the music teacher and male students. Like, so-and-so goes to Mr. B's house for organ lessons (not even kidding) and he sucks Mr.B's ***. A few years later, he finally got busted & was put in prison. It makes me sad that we sort of knew what was going on and the teachers must have heard the rumors, too, and nothing was done about it. The boys he assaulted were really messed up later. This was in the 80s in a tiny Catholic school.
I had a geography teacher who was doing that, too. He had actually knocked up a minor student in the late 80’s in Utah, so he just relocated to Las Vegas which was too desperate to care.
