    • A grand jury indicted Rogers last week of 76 criminal counts, including sexual assault, lewdness with a minor, possession of child pornography and other crimes against children. Some alleged victims seen in photos and DVDs are as young as 6 and 7.

    Authorities said Rogers gained access to some of the boys by hosting sleepovers at his home and either drugged them or plied them with alcohol.

    Rogers taught at Garrett Middle School in Boulder City. He also taught at two Henderson schools.

    Great hiring of pedophiles, Clark County Schools. You should be #1 in the nation on the hiring of pedophiles about now.

    What planet are you writing from? Sounds like a fun, fantasy place.
    My best to David and Molly.

    It's always nice and a little frightening to see you and Molly at my events. I know I will have some real competition, so I always bring my A game when I see you or your lovely and smart wife.

    Give Molly my best. I do see you both as excellent parents and worthy (yet friendly) adversaries.

    Jean

    And look, he's neither black nor hispanic! Any racists want to chime in on this pervert since you're so adept at painting all blacks and hispanics as criminals? C'mon, let's hear it.
