Roy King update?

Any one heard what's going on with former LSU band director Roy King over in Florida? Is he still on the hot seat or did it turn out to be nothing? Seems like a decent guy. Innocent until proven guilty probably the best way to look at it.

Roy is a modern day Julius Caesar who keeps getting stabbed by Brutuses

Some alumni band page (Facebook maybe?) said it was much ado about nothing....he yelled at a kid and the kid's parents got pissed and called the sheriff. I am sure it will blow over if it hasn't already.

So I guess an ugly kid was the one who got pissed

I am a student of the high school he was at, and he has since left. There are many different things he was rumored to have been in trouble for, but the leading one is that he was rating girls in the band based on looks. Another story is that he told a student to "go into a room with him" (so he could yell at her about something) and a guidance counselor walked up on the situation. The counselor told him that was "inappropriate" and he went off on the counselor, screaming and cursing. Anyway, after about two weeks or so of him being on leave, he officially resigned and our Assistant Director was named the interim Director of Bands. I'm honestly angry about the whole thing. He was mildly rude to all the students and many students disliked him so this is all probably a bunch of false accusations. It's really aggrivating because, while the Tate High School Showband of the South was incredible back in the 70's - 90's, it had majorly gone down hill, and he was the only chance we had to come out of our dark ages.
