nearly 30 years after the event..???????? why now ???????????
all I can say is …that Graham wad a fabulous Hockey Coach and took the Gib team to a level never attained before and was also a great fielder and hard hitting bat for our Sotogrande CRicket Team ! I still wonder why this should come up some 30 years later…. very odd…!
I can only agree with ad……
all I can say is …that Graham’s wad was fabulous and took the Gib team to a level never ever ?attained? before and he had a hard hitting bat pleasing our Sotogrande CRicket Team
I still remember even if it was 30years ago ….. how odd …!
ad: The only odd thing here is a teacher noncing on an underage girl. A lot of dirt lies dormant for ages until victims raise the courage to speak up and throw off the shame.Which of course, they shouldn’t feel.
Don’t judge someone you don’t know
Don’t need to really. The jury did that and the abuser admitted it. How come this cage got rattled over a year later?
I know this guy. He was a P.E. teacher in my middle school. Anyway, absolutely disgusting! Whats worse is the cheap sentence he got 2 years! Apparently that’s the price of abusing a child. What a disgrace!
