There are some holes in this story. But, I don't see how a teacher can think it's ok to text a middle school girl 5000 times in one month. What a whack job. He looks like a creeper they would catch on that show " To Catch a Predator". Wouldn't doubt they find kiddy porn on his computer if they looked.

And in all fairness to racial bashing on this board. I knew after reading the headline, he was going to be a wormy looking white dude.

Creep; I don't trust any male teacher. Anytime I meet a young male who tells me he's a teacher, I'm immediately suspicious, and of males who coach women's sports doubly so. Schools should administer psychological screenings to their teachers.

I love the State school board apologist: "he's a young teacher", as if this behavior was a product of youthful indiscretion. He is is a convicted child stalker, and that behavior is not a product of youth, its a product of mental illness. Why is his license only being suspended?

And to "Uptown DC", that may or may not be the case, but no mentally-balanced adult would engage in a relationship with a child, invited or otherwise.

Darn teach, this ain't Glen Ford, aka Daddio, in Blackboard Jungle. You can't make out with young chicks. Besides, a teach of all people, should know young girls, or young males, are just growing up and may have fanciful ideas about romance, love, and all the fuzzy things in life floating about the noggin. Mature people know this and act accordingly. Yeah, gee, what a shame about your boy friend we say to a heartbroken female relative. Then when we get out of sight we burst out laughing about her love who in two weeks will have her wondering whatever did she see in that jerk? As I heard a disc jockey say one time as he played Tommy Sand's version of Young Love, "Are there any other kind?" Grow up teach and I wish you well despite your foolishness.

It doesn't matter, he is the adult and he should know better.

Yes, i'm sure she replied every message BUT, she is a minor!!!! and he is an adult teacher. If you were her mother/father, would you accept that kind of behavior coming from someone whose work is to "teach", i bet you said NO,

This psycho is clearly a sexual predator in progress! He likes little girls and pursued his obsession. Good thing they got him when they did!

I'm embarrassed that this nut case is a fellow educator. He is scum in every sense of the word and that bull$%#! about him being a "young teacher" is exactly that, bull$%#!.
