I am not defending the headmaster nor do I condone LBGTQ(Abcdefg)
First, the headmaster used Grindr to engage with the two teenagers who were not said to be of the same school as the headmaster.
Second, the police report said they approached this case from an angle in which the suspect was a danger to children.
A teacher commits a crime when they have sex with a student from their school as this deemed to occur from a position of power over the student.
What is not known is the age of consent in that area. There are some cases where the age of consent is 17 in the United States.
Lastly, there are occurrences in which an underage individual has faked their age but only revealed the age after the deed. Unless verification of age is done before the deed there is no way to know. There might be ask their dat of birth. That is one way but how many laughed at the proposal of a contract before the deed? If this person was a heterosexual and had a threesome with three girls then more than likely it would have been okay with most given that the 17-year-olds did not go to the same school as the headmaster worked and the age of consent was adhered to. If the girls were younger than yes it would be child predator territory.
Since the police said no crime, as the law is what we as conservatives go by, was committed, it could be postulated the age of consent is 17 and that the 17-year-olds were not from the same school. as the headmaster.
This would be a case of discrimination even if it were a hetero male or female were involved. While a gay person has no business in our schools, in our scouting organizations and anywhere near children, the fault here lies with Grindr for allowing two 17-year-olds on their app when it is an 18 and over app (Not that I use it).
Spit!
4th. Why do you think they call them the headmaster?
I believe the age of consent in Wales in 16.
If so, the trysts were probably legal.
I did not read carefully enough to understand that the boys were from other schools ....
that would arguably make a difference, too, for as you say it would remove the possibility of coercion or misuse of his power position
thanks for the info
