if we’re going to scrutinize George and his family, let’s examine the role of the girls and their parents, too. if these allegations are true, which I highly doubt, are we to believe that this innocent little victim of George Turner didn’t know she was repeatedly the victim of statutory rape for three months until coming forward? She needed her friend, a picture-perfect alibi, to tell her what he was doing was illegal? It took three months and several encounters — inside and outside of school — for her to decide that she was being raped? Well, at least she found another victim to back-up the story. On a similar note: the parents have decided to sue the Turner family and possibly the school for the pain and suffering their traumatized daughter endured during those 3 excruciating months. Well thank god they’ll be compensated.
