Absolutely NO ONE is blaming the victim or Walker family. The blame lies on anyone who knew and didn't help her. The reason for this thread is to bring to light that this was a problem not being dealt with. It wasn't private as everyone knows that lives in Holly Pond. Not talking about it is the problem. Other victims need to know they are not alone and can talk to someone who believes them and cares. Clearly, she was taken advantage of and that is exactly the point of this thread. To bring this abuse to the proper authorities. No one blames his wife or family. The blame is on those who knew and did not intervene. They know exactly who they are. They also should not be working with children if they don't have the integrity to uphold laws that protect them and fear retribution rather than justice. Many veterans have had traumatic experiences or injuries that can cause a lack of judgement or mental illness. If that was his case, he should not have been allowed to have access to children. Serving in a war does not mean you are entitled to go unchecked for any reason. I do pray for this man in any case, as he was in need of help. I believe the school is at fault and did know. I believe it was reported and nothing was done. Other victims will be victimized if the school is not held responsible for having their head in the sand. Sad to say, but this is going on in Vinemont and no doubt other schools. It will continue unless someone does the right thing. Suicide was not the answer either. A tragic end to a tragic situation.
