GUARDLING Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 3 minutes ago, jmc5682 said: I know that BD and SCV take sexual harassment and instructor student relations very seriously. I know instances of instructors/techs who have been fired for inappropriate relations. The instructors or techs in these instances were not engaged with anyone underage, but that did not matter. The instances I am aware of happened over twenty years ago, but even then there was a full investigation in each case and the instructors or techs were fired. If someone on staff is even leering at a student they can be fired. 1 No place is immune to this sort of thing nor does not have to deal with it from 1 degree to another. We are a very inbreed activity and we all interact with another. Often staff move around a bit, what skeletons do they move on with ?. What do they know of another? Yes, you are right some can be more diligent than another BUT unfortunately, we have also seen ( and it's sick or nieve ) depending on one's contributions or talent some turn a blind eye. I think even outside of our activity we can see this. I am not saying people purposely put kids in danger BUT sometimes they could think it was a 1-time thing or under control..and often that's a falsehood.

Their reporters understand the issues very well. I kind-of said this back then... to several people... it was too close to not expect them to pick it up. I'm also not surprised they didn't break it, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigW Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 2 minutes ago, Jaffo Nerr said: So, it is a thought crime to question the culpability of DCI? No. That being said... they're not an overarching directorate that dictates to the members. The members dictate to it. Part of the reason it was created was so that the membership wasn't dictated to from the top anymore. Right now, sit and wait until more information and facts are discovered. This can take a long, long time- proper investigations that aren't half-witted or bungled just aren't immediate and quick, which may not satisfy people out for heads on pikes and blood. But they do bring out the facts, and usually also bring the best justice possible for everyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully, the tax returns are all online these days which gives reporters a head start on financial aspects that may be of interest in parsing systemic abuses. Wait, I have a direct line to Clive Cussler <insert your favorite adventure mystery writer>. Hold while I get him on the line so you can weave this tale. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
