Saw the guillotine and thinking of something else getting chopped... first thing my wife would have said....

At $5000, it is cheaper to commit indecent assault than marching Drum Corps.

When we’d drive to DC rehearsal in the 70’s, there was always drama in the car. Teenagers and bf/gf drama. One guy had a little tape player and when the drama started, he’d play the Perry Mason theme music.

I'm going to be flooding Twitter with this.

Boot-licking sycophants never disappoint.

Fred Morrison could help him try for a fee i am sure

Absolutely agree. In the case you quoted in your reply, however, a background check would not have "caught" anything. It does not appear the guy was ever legally convicted of anything, unless I misread the original post.

One victim said it was not in her best interest to move forward with the case, so that may have played a role from the prosecution side of things and the plea deal. And as you said, the other victim said she was OK with the plea deal.

I think it wore off a couple of hours ago.

Oh well 🤷‍♀️

He won't (or can't) see it that way.

I am so disgusted

Or maybe Flo Marching could cover it as they are probably desperate for new content

how cavalier(no pun intended) that you feel it perfectly fine to resume normalcy..have members of your family died from covid?..It's great that your genetics have left you and yours virtually immune, but not all of us are so fortunate..NYC suffered a great deal and people who were NOT fat and out of shape or 55+ also died.

YUP!...seems to be alot of that going around lately...lol🤐

How about the member corps voting for a lifetime ban from the activity?

Crossmen design staff: Lee Allman, front ensemble arranger Lee Beddis, battery arranger Drew Shanefield, brass arranger https://www.crossmen.org/post/design-team-additions

These comments are great. Reminded me of the overly dramatic "Perry Mason" moments from the series Perry Mason. Check out the dramatic "over-acted" scene @1:20. It's great!

If he tries to stay involved in the activity, the point of sale will be continually reminded of what he did and how people see him.

I’m no legal expert but if the judge found him so disgusting and was so angry, couldn’t he have overturned the plea deal and sentence himself? Nice to know that nothing much has changed in 50 + years. #metoo my ###.

That’s quite a smirk he is wearing in that picture.

So are the rumors of him replacing Dan Acheson at DCI after he retires true?

... and are Crossmen still hiring?

I have many words for this, but they would not make it past the profanity filters.

🤮

His latest meme quote from his Facebook page: "I used to feel like my side of the story needed to be told to keep the facts right. Now I don't care what you choose to believe." I guess the Max Lucado influence is wearing off?

I would think he has no chance anyway. I guess we will now move into the Civil Law phase - he is already suing YEA for wrongful termination. Perhaps the victims will counter-sue.

Indecent assault is a Tier 1 offense, requires 15 years on the list

All of it is good, Especially when he bashes the Cowgirls.

Well there is living with it and living with it safely and with common sense. Too many out there not taking precautions and insulting or verbally going after those who do. As for anti CV vaxxers. More and more I see the problem isn’t being anti-vaccination but fear the first one out of the gate might have been rushed. Having lived with someone who was in the small percentage of people with side affects with certain meds that is on my mind

Jerry Noonan one of the best soprano soloists in the activity, passed away today after a brief battle with cancer. Jerry was the featured soloist of the Northstar Drum & Bugle Corps. Jerry had also been the brass arranger and instructor with the Boston Crusaders and was inducted in the Crusaders Hall of Fame. RIP Jerry.

specifics matter

I’m disappointed for his victims that the punishment doesn’t fit the crime. I can only hope he simply fades away into drum corps history. (Though I doubt he will.) He deserves no more attention or time in the spotlight. Or anything from the activity, really. Just stay away, please.

"Performing their 2021 program "Flatly Disgusting", Drum Corps International is proud to present The Cadets!" Your entire bolded text could serve as the narration.

Great additions .

I think the only way there will be a civil suit is if the lawyers are hired on the basis that their fee is a cut (usually 33%) of any monies won. Unless one of the victims has deep pockets.

no. i want to avoid jail so i can protect my daughter from ####s like him

You should invite him over for dinner and a...er...show!

I'll take you up on that bet. Nobody with brain cells would ever hire him in any summer or winter programs. He's toxic. This is not some tech person at a very low level. He was head of an established organization YEA/Cadets.

donk donk

Just think. One of the Summer Marching Bands or Winter Programs is thinking up ways right now how they can hire GH in some capacity as a staff member. Bet me.

You're funny. Yeah what you see on TV is very different from reality. There are no "ah ha" surprise witnesses No old beautiful smoky court rooms. Most look like large office rooms with low ceiling lights and vents. There are procedures before trial and after trial and discovery. Meaning all evidence on both sides have to be shared before a trial begins. It's actually quiet boring from TV law shows.

I’ve been watching too much Law and Order in Covid jail.

Rough, yes, but not necessarily the end. I would expect some very significant structural changes, however. We will probably see a number of these even if there is a 2021 season.

Just loaded the Covid Alert PA app on my phone. Still trying to work out what it can be useful for but interesting stats. If I’m reading right many counties (mainly rural) have/had <1% infection rate. Philadelphia county 20% which was one of the hottest spots when this all started. Talk about one size not fitting all

speaking of, finally after breaking my wrist on 12/19, i was finally able to get my wedding band back on

Liz isn't speaking to me, right now my team is better than hers. Brock is too busy with Max the puppet mourning the new Penn State Health building at the corner or Old gettysburg and Market St/114 and Horner is pressing his Stillers socks

every circuit should require background checks.

Dcxmuseum has them for free also. You have to read or download chapter by chapter.

resume looks good.
