The thread from 2019 made it & is still open which provided trial updates, etc. No one on DCP has to read this or comment. I'm simply curious as to his intentions & DCI's actions. Is this the first step to returning to a role in the DCI activity? I'm simply asking... But he's not growing younger. https://www.drumcorpsplanet.com/forums/index.php?/topic/172155-commonwealth-vs-george-hopkins-10-23-19/#comments NM !

Whiskey Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Although I am one of the last ones to recommend the closure of any thread, I feel it is best this thread get closed. Facts are ok but this has the potential to get too volatile. We never know where this can go due to someone not being mindful and careful what is said. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GetOFFmyDot Posted July 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 25, 2022 This is a messy, tough, and important thing to recognize. DCI is failing, yet again, to protect those that he abused and assaulted. More troublesome is that he has direct connection to SCV and if (as somewhat implied) his contributions to his connection to SCV are being implemented, it seems SUPER shady. That arrangement makes me super uncomfortable. Ugh. Let's not hide our eyes or turn away. DCI has an abuse problem and until things like this are handled quickly and promptly, they will continue to have an abuse problem. The fact he is posting about attending DCI events is re-victimizing the survivors of his abuse. 15 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The above comment is why cultures of abuse continue to exist. LEAN IN and let's create environments that protect youth and marching members. Let's be better and create an activity that protects the safety of it's members. 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
