Calling the incident, "alleged," and continually referring to it, as if it did not happen, does not help the situation.
". . . Records and video of the incident, however, don’t line up precisely with these versions of events.
Police confirmed that a sexual assault was reported in May as Smith alleges, the local ABC News affiliate reports. The alleged perpetrator is reportedly expected to plead guilty later this month to assaulting Smith’s daughter and another student at the different school. They were transferred to the other pending the outcome of the police investigation.
Reporting an alleged crime the day it occurs isn’t what most would describe as a cover up.
It is true that the school hasn’t released details about the incident, but the school says this is because student privacy rules prohibit it from doing so. It also says that school board members didn’t know about the allegation until recently.. . . "
This source, continues to use the word, "alleged, alleged, alleged," all the while, acknowledging that police confirm that the assailant admitted that incident took place, and intends to plead guilty.
Yes, the father was NOT on the list of approved speakers. . . one has to wonder, given the relationship of him to the student that was assaulted, whether he would have been given time anyway. Generally, politicians like to control the debate, that is how and why they have rules governing proceedings. You know. . . "don't taze me bro?"
. . and yes, this policy was implemented from the Top Down, from the State Board of Education, and the parents have no control, other than to vote in different members of the State Board of Education, Legislators and Reps, and a different governor.
The father, was obviously enraged about the national and local policy changes, the harm to his daughter, and just wanted to bring attention to the disingenuous elite's attempts to shoe horn in their social engineering policies, with little regard to its real affects on the everyday lives of real students.
I'd say he accomplished his goal. Everyone knows now, these policies were a stupid idea. Or, at least anyone with kids knows this.
