It's real easy to to blame someone for this incident but he was checked out and run through police check for any arrests etc. What exactly do you think could of been done? Do you think that people who look at child pornography announce it to the world? How about going to his house and checking out his hard drive??? Oh yeah, that would be a violation of his rights. Patty Corum does her job well and she does everything in her power to keep our kids safe. We can't always know what goes on in the dark recesses of someone's mind but thank God he's not around children anymore. If you think you can do a better job of knowing what goes on in someone's mind Mr. Pope, why don't you get involved. Easy to be an armchair quarterback when you don't have to step up and make the decisions the school district employees have to.
