CAMDEN, N.J. (AP) — A middle school principal was arrested Tuesday, accused of offering money to a 14-year-old male student to take off his clothes.

[snip]

Daniel L. Edwards, 55, was being held on $35,000 bail after being arrested at his home in Pennsauken. He faces child endangerment and official misconduct charges.

[snip]

The 14-year-old boy came forward on Monday and said Edwards had approached him three times this month. The principal allegedly asked the student to take off items of clothing, including his shirt, pants and "drawers."

[snip]

The boy put a micro-cassette recorder in his shirt pocket during the most recent exchange, and authorities said that a taped conversation corroborates the student's account of events.

The boy betrayed his young friend, the principal. < /linda tripp >

Not a pastor, not a church building, not a conspiracy - now take your SOMA and moveon.

But, a teacher has professional ethics, the bad boy must have entrapped him.

Homosexual Agenda Ping + Public School Danger Alert.

Interesting point comparing the number of school officials who have either molested kids or attempted to, with the Catholic Church situation.

Of course, the media would much rather slam the Catholic Church than public schools. Duh. So we don't know the percentages. But it would be nice to see some kind of numbers.

Let me and DirtyHarryY2K know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

Kind of makes me nostalgic for the good old days, when perverts were called perverts.

This is why their should be zero tolerance for teacher and student sexual contact and the penalties should be very severe.

I agree - without regard to the sexes of the parties or claims of "consensuality."

For those still in the Public Schools, they should go back to the way they used to do things. Two people where never left alone, there was always a third or more there. Doors where left open, no secret or private meetings, everything done in open. Teachers should never be meeting with any students alone as a rule and any child asked by a teacher to meet him alone, say no, against school policy. All teacher/student discussions/meeting done with another adult present only. Children should stay in groups always with friends, never let them be isolated, where they could be taken advantage of and some adult abuse them. Girls and boys stay in groups going from class to class, washrooms, lockers, anything, a type of buddy system in this jungle of perverts known as the public schools. News yesterday in Chicago area of some guy using tape and taping of young students to abuse them!!!

Just wait until the anti-Linda Tripp crowd wakes up. They'll surely denounce this little creep for violating the prinicipal's privacy.

Nope -- Linda Tripp was a rare case. Ditto Paula Jones. The left loves whistleblowers except when the whistle is blown on one of their own, like Bill Clinton. And remember how much the left despised David Brock before he pulled a U-turn, groveled at the feet of Clinton, and became the toast of the town.

So the contact for the "No Child Left Behind" meeting was Principal Perv, huh? Sounds more like "No Child's Behind Left Behind"!

Horrible. Tape?

Children are so vulnerable and need protection like young tender plants. It is so outrageous that some of those who are supposed to be their protectors and nurturers are predators. Such people should be very severely punished, but of course, they rarely are.

This goes on far more than being reported. Just last night we had a jr. high teacher accused of having sex with a 14 year old girl.

The detectives found the red lacy underwear in his classroom that the girl described along with a personal note from the girl. It was consensual.

What is interesting is that he had been fired from a nearby school district for downloading porn from the internet while at school.

I worked in school district personnel. Nothing happens to these people. This guy here, very well, could be promoted to the administration office and get a pay raise. Meanwhile the school administrators and school board will tell the community they are doing you a favor by keeping him away from students.

Many thanks; this movie has almost cult status, and I didn't know about this tidbit...

Nope --
