The jury deliberated for about two hours. The verdict is not guilty. The girl didn’t testify. Game Over. Let the man get on with his life.

I know this is old news now. But i think he did it… (Deleted by site moderator) and i remember a girl bragging that she had sex with him almost 10 years ago.

This is not true. Mr. Thompson is the best teacher in that school and these false allegations have just ruined what good was left at North Kitsap.
Mr. Thompson was my teacher in 9th grade, 3 years ago. He would never do a thing like this. Ever.
