  • He is accused of sexually assaulting and molesting multiple young boys under the age of 14 and using the victims in child pornography.

    Authorities said Rogers, a foster parent, had gained access to the victims by hosting sleepovers at his home and either drugging them or plying them with alcohol.

    Rogers is behind bars and is being held on $1.3 million bail. His attorney said today that Rogers cannot make the bail, but declined further comment.

One story like this one, even if untrue, could spell the end of the business and a financial catastrophe for the shareholders. Public schools have a virtual monopoly. They never worry about bad publicity, except the kind that comes from not having enough diversity.

Sexual Assault--on 1 count alone--carries 20 years to life in prison! Why is it that CCSD is never held accountable for hiring these creeps....

    It is this hateful, foolish rethoric I hear from the right either on radio (KXNT big example) or print that lost the GOP the election. Independents like myself are sick of that nonsense and it comes from the left as well, but the more it keeps coming from the right the less power they will have. Will all the nuts and fools who have taken over the conservative movement please give it back and lets get back to a sensible political party filled without the hate rethoric??
    Then we can get back to a true conservative Gov without the hypocritical fools like Sen Ensign/Sen Rangle (D NY) in it. That's why I vote for the man not the Party...
