I doubt you actually do, but when you say you pray it isn't "another let's get even with the teacher charges," that's the alternative. Either the child is falsely trying to hurt him or is accurately reporting what happened. Personally, I would prefer it BE a case of a false accusation and a recant of same and/or proof the accusation was false. Regarding those who wonder why a hundred thousand dollars was not put up to secure his release, it is possible this former substitute teacher doesn’t have a hundred thousand lying around, may not even have the ten thousand nonrefundable lying around. Not everybody is rich. Two things are certain: not all charges are true, not all are false. Otherwise we wouldn't need courts.

If she is a liar, her punishment should be severe!! If he is guilty, then it will come out. I say innocent until proven guilty however! I do wonder why his friends and family have not bailed him out of jail yet. It seems like they could have gotten the money, property, etc together by now.

I do know a man that is a great guy and he was falsely accused of messing with a kid and it was on the front page of the paper and people was talking like crazy. They found out the child was lying, but now some people still act like he is poison. To a certian extent his reputation was ruined forever. I think we should pray for them because either way the families involved will be hurt.I will just save my thoughts until the truth comes out I am neither a judge or jury.

If the accusations are true, then the judicial system will take appropriate action. If the accusations are false, apologies should be asked and forgiveness given. We need to realize that we are quick to over react to sensationalism and should keep our emotions in check until ALL the facts are discovered. Regardless, we all need to adjust our way of thinking.

I have worked with children all my life. Not till recent years have I seen where a good man's name and life could be destroyed or tarnished just because someone accused them of something. If this girl is telling the truth then, Ken your in trouble, but if not, how will His name ever be fully restored. Why is it that the victom is always right before sentence is past. Where will all you commenters be if and when He is found not quilty. God knows what the truth is here and He will bring the truth to light. Pray for his family , remember they are suffering with him. Keep in mind people, all it takes is someone claiming you did something to them and you could be the one in the same spot tomorrow. When the truth does come out and if He is found not quilty. I hope the article proclaiming is innocense is bigger and longer than the one that started all this. You better believe and never say this could not happen to me or my loved one, You have no control over what other people might accuse you of doing!!!!!

If she is telling the truth she is going through feelings that she doesn't know how to deal with & it is very hard for her to talk about them. When I was 12 my adopted father almost raped me, the reason he stopped is I told him that I was going to tell Mother & everybody, I was so scared that I told him if he would not penetrate that he could feel me all over as long as he wanted to & I would not tell. The first chance I got I told Mother what happened, she said I know that is not true & you better not tell anybody else. I still choke up sometimes when I think about how it hurt that she told me to hush about it & would not let me tell her all of it & that she didn't believe me. My first memory of being sexually abused by an uncle I was 5, I believe his wife & my parents knew he fondled me every chance he got but it was ok as long as he didn't hurt my physical body, also the same for another relative. I think they were paying Daddy to allow them to so when another relative wanted to start I started charging all of them since daddy wasn't going to stop them. they would pay me not to resist. Did my Mother care? I believe she did but she thought we had to stay & do whatever. I could go on & on but I just wanted to say parents please don't tell your children you don't believe them, listen to them, ask questions, protect them the best you can.
