This is pretty crazy to me. Busby was like a father to my unit and myself in florida. I could never imagen him doing something like this after three years of his mentorship. This is very shocking and hurtful to hear about.

I am saddened in so may ways about this charge. I know this man, and would never have thought this could happen. I still dont know if i believe it or not. I hope it is not true. I find myself worrying for him, if the charges are not true. I find myself hating him for ruining my faith in people if it is true. This man and others in the program did a world of good for my son. Its a shame to have to deal with this.
