but i never broke rule #1

Glad you were cleared. At my old church we had to tell an adult to quit being so “huggy” with the females in the HS youth group. Actually had a cop hiding in a closet when the minister told him as he flipped out (as we predicted). Threatened to sue everyone involved for character assassination. Still waiting for my summons.

That was a fun night when I got home after I found out:

Kris: how was the meeting

Me: great… I’m getting sued

Kris: WHAT!!

well if anything, being 23 and full of my own #### saved me, as my uh filter was less developed than it is now. not saying much has improved but, comments made by youthful me were deemed to be incredibly honest and made the school do deeper digging, which then exonerated me.

Which shows that all possible victims should be heard but only facts should condemn. Think about if social media was like it is now what might have been done to an innocent you.

Glad you're exonerated, but you have a filter? ( I'm joking!!!)

i have many times. i dont often jump to conclusions on some of the stories brought out. Most often i voice blame at the system that allows even the accusations to persist.

Often in today's world the accusation even without proof can do alot of lasting damage. Victims all around...sad
