So, I am in no way trying to blame the victims here, but suing? really? These weren't 11 or 12 year old girls. They were high school seniors. They knew what they were doing. Clearly the teachers and administrators broke the law and violated the trust of all of the students, parents and citizens of GT, but the girls are not completely innocent, sorry.
This will send a great message. Screw your teacher, get paid. Great.

Hopefully the Families sue and send a message just like you said Paul, teachers, don't screw around. How disgraceful

So basically the girls are going to be paid for sex with the teachers. If the lawsuit settles. I thought prostitution was illegal!....Those girls knew exactly what they were dpi g. That is typical of how shallow peoples mindset are today!

Couldn't agree more Paul. There were many comments on here a couple of weeks ago concerning the families of the girls suing with people ripping the girls and going as far as calling them whores. I'm sure these girls were flirtatious with the teachers and throwing vibes that they were interested but on my opinion the teachers are completely at fault and broke the trust of the students and te parents of the students. The fact that the administrators tried to sweep it under the carpet makes it much worse.

Why is no one questioning the members of the school board. They helped cover this up. No teacher or administrator can be transferred without the cooperation of the superintendent and a vote by the school board. What did they know and when did they know it. If they know about the principal and vice principal covering for the teachers and still were silent and approved the transfer to Timber Creek, not only should all nine resign but should be investigated and prosecuted. NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS VOTING. Either they are incompetent and didn't know what they were doing or they are evil and coveted up a disgusting incident, either way each member of the BHPRSD BOE must answer serious questions.

As a mental health professional who has to abide by ethical and professional codes, and has studied the reasons behind the codes, even if an ADULT comes on to a person who is in a position of power over that adult such as a therapist or teacher, the teacher is at complete fault since he or she has taken advantage of their position of power over the victim for their own needs and because the victim sees that person as someone they look up to and trust they have their safety and best interests at heart. So even though its much worse with young children it is still detrimental to adults as well. Even 17 and 18 yr olds have not quite matured to a true adult level.

On a similar topic, we the taxpayers are on the hook to pay for depaul's pension for the rest of her life.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a parent. If the teachers had engaged in these acts with my kids, I would be beyond livid. I guess I just don't see how litigation will be a future deterrent. It's not like this hasn't happened before. We need to find the RIGHT deterrent!
