Jamie – educate yourself a little before you open your mouth. Your beloved teacher CONFESSED to having sex with a 17 year old. This is the second victim for which he is being charged, by the way. I feel bad for his wife and children but guess what – HE did this to them and nobody else. He screwed up big time and has nobody to blame but himself.
We don’t need to get to know the guy to understand that he is a total scumbag.

(Deleted by site moderator), you have not met the guy and have no right to talk about him this way. I have not heard the exact charges, but he taught me many things that make him and me a better person than you are. By the way thanks for putting down a man who is forced to leave his wife unsupported with two children. I don’t know about you but i do not like leaving a single mom with two children and a job that barely supports herself.
