I was just sitting in my room watching the mid-day news (yes I know... sounds lame but hey, I enjoy it) when they show a picture of one of my teachers I had when I was in high school. "A girls basketball coach is arrested for indecency with a child.Authorities say Wayne Haynie, 38, is on administrative leave from -** ISD.He's accused of two instances of sexual contact with a girl, who was not on the basketball team. The Wood County Sheriff's Department says they were acquaintances." That just makes me so sad to hear... he was my all time favorite teacher. I can't believe that he'd do something like that... it breaks my heart to hear that....
-
Completly crushed....
-
It really makes me sad. I mean he was the most amazing teacher, and there is no way I could ever believe he was capable of something like this.
-
hey not much you can do...Just understand that he made a big mistake. Hopefully he learned from it, just remember the good times.

When I was still in Tae Kwon Do, I had this awesome instructor. I rarely had class with him because of the timing, but whenever i did it was great. About 2 years after I quit, he got arrested for luring and molesting little boys. I was shocked! You NEVER know who it can be and when it can happen...just goes to show that you never really know who people are. I don't know that exactly happened but i believe he ran off to Vancouver...pretty creepy.

that's really sad Katie.Without starting a huge debate on this topic in general (please)... As you say he was a great guy, concider that false reports have been made by people in the past who have a hidden agenda.I can think of a scouter I had who was accused of messing with the troups. He would have been well into his 70s at the time and a scouter for years and years. I don't know what became of him but I spent a lot of time at camp with him over a 4yr period and I can't even fathom him doing it.Either way, it's definately a sad situation.

In reply to:As you say he was a great guy, concider that false reports have been made by people in the past who have a hidden agenda. That is true, just like in the new movie Pretty Persuasion

A few years ago a bloke who lived just round the corner from me and whom I'd known all my life, was arrested and charged with indecent assault on two boys, whom I also know.He was arrested and sent to prison where he eventually killed himself. After he died, one of the boys admitted that he and his mate had made the whole thing up after trying unsuccessfully to blackmail the bloke.
-
THAT sucks. Big time. I hope the mans heirs sued the shit out of those two kids.
-
Nope. He had no family and the Crown Prosecution Service apparently decided not to prosecute the boys. It's all just been quietly forgotten (not that it was ever headline news).
-
Not that I am heavily into retribution, but I hope then those two have lived miserable lives. The reputation and then the life of a man hung on their lies. Ok I lied. I am heavily into retirbution. What they did was callouse and cold.

Well since I live in a very small town this is all anyone can talk about. I really don't think he could have did anything like this, I mean not only was he my teacher for more than 4 years and he was a major figure in my life. I didn't have the best of childhoods and he was one of the few people I could go to for comfort and advice. He was the person I went to when I was having problems with friends, he comforted me when I was went through the whole ordeal with my friend being raped by her step-father and me being sexually assulted by him as well, he was the one who helped me to have faith in myself and he even convinced me not to quit school when I really wanted to. So basically, I was pretty close to him and it is very upsetting to me hear this about him.
-
wow, it almost reads like a recepe for a false accusation. Although, like all of us, I really don't know all the facts.Are you ok Kiddo?
-
Sis, its hard, but whatever is said about him from others, you have the fact that he helped you so much to hold on to - thats important.......big hugs
