Crazy. I wish my memory wasn't such shite. I obviously heard about it.

Ah. I was only there one year. I don't know if the school was good at one point and then just eventually went to shite, but I don't know that I'd have ever gotten into college if I stayed there. I'm amazed by the one person I know from there that got into LSU.

Two of my teachers were coaches that had no teaching education or experience. Another teacher left because we (students) were absolutely horrible to her. Between that and her miscarrying, she bailed and we had substitute teachers for math for the rest of the year.

Darth, I'm saying violating the trust between an adult and child is the most horrible thing that can occur on the planet. It has far reaching effects, way beyond any sort of sexual issues. Entire lives can be lost because of a single instance of molestation.

I also refuse to define things entirely in black and white. In my own experiences at that age, and the experience of others... I wasn't turning down a sexy little goth 19 year old when I wasn't even out of middle school yet.

There is a gray area. That is all.



Touché on spinning it around to where it looks like I'm supporting the pedo rather than you.

I've never supported a pedo. I've only said that and accusation by itself is not enough convict the guy. You on the other hand think a 12 yr old boy being molested by a grown woman is "lucky". Guess since you're new here you don't know my history with this subject. But I can tell you for a fact that a 12 yr old boy is not "lucky" to be molested by an adult woman.

She was convicted in Sept 2003, so the incident would have happened in 2002 or even 2001. The school might have kept it hush-hush when you were there since Mrs. Strain was still teaching (she was awesome BTW).

The school was OK when I was there, but by no means was it highly regarded . Most of my class went to college.

I agree it's troubling. But is that enough to prove he's guilty of trying to rape a 12 yr old girl? I think it's possible he did indeed do what this girl alleges. I just don't know if there is enough evidence to convict him based on just what we know. That's why I hope the prosecutor has some sort of other evidence that's not mentioned in the article.


They don't need hard evidence to prosecute.

If he actually didn't do anything his attorney will have him take a polygraph in order to try and clear the dude of the charges. This case will go to a Grand Jury do to the nature of the alleged crime.

Here are the facts:

Jennifer Bauer (now Bankston) is/was convicted of Indecent Behavior with Juveniles.

Philip Ziegler has been accused of Sexual Battery. No conviction of yet.

Jennifer got a plea deal. She lawyered up with Unglesby which is the same attorney for Philip.

So the dude who is accused of battery on her daughter has the same attorney as she had on her indecent behavior case?

Did she re-marry? Or did she just change her name?

Remarried a guy that supposedly abused/beat her and was jailed for it.

I also noticed that the therapist quoted in the story was also named Bankston:

quote:

"Most children and teenagers actually hold on to the secret of sexual abuse for awhile," said Toni Bankston, the Clinical Director and senior therapist with the Baton Rouge Children's Advocacy Center.


Probably just a coincidence, but this story is so bazaar that I'm not taking anything as chance.

I don't know so I have to ask. If his atty. has him take a polygraph and he fails, is it discoverable and able to be used by the ADA in prosecuting him?

I think it's hard either way to get a polygraph to be admissible in court

No idea. She was pregnant (and all the students knew). The kids were AWFUL to her. This was 8th grade, so I'm talking the age where their bad behavior is vulgar. I feel bad -- she was having a really tough time. She miscarried and I don't know that she ever came back after that. She might have for like a week, but I think the lack of improvement with the hell students made what she was going through even worse so she bailed.

Can't say I blame her. My mom actually really liked her.. But it certainly made my parents ready to rip me out of the school mid-year. I had to talk them into letting me finish out the year there. A year of no math because there is no teacher is not exactly a good thing when you're in 8th grade.

If anyone here thinks for a minute that some 14 yr olds cannot be a deviant to society and lie there arse off to get back at someone for right or wrong reasons, ur stupid, everyone here acts like this kid was automatically innocent, let me tell you there are 14yr olds out there who have a larger criminal mind than a full grown adult....I for one feel the teen is lying...the guy is still a pos...

Lucky.

My class was only like 12 people anyway, but none went to college.

All of the girls from my grade have at least 1 child over the age of 4 (I am 24). Several of the girls from the grade below me have children now too, and only 1 person from the grade below me (which was about 30 or so kids) went to college.
