Scott Ziegler, the fired superintendent of Loudoun County Public Schools, has been formally indicted by a special grand jury that was impaneled to investigate the gross mishandling of two sexual assaults that occurred on school property. Ziegler is charged with one count of misdemeanor false publication, one count of misdemeanor prohibited conduct, and one count of misdemeanor penalizing an employee for a court appearance. School spokesperson Wayde Byard is charged with one count of felony perjury.
Local Fox legal analyst Katie Barlow tweeted images of the indictments:
RedState has reported extensively on the blundering, woke Loudoun school officials who allowed a known sexual predator to remain in school (where he proceeded to assault another student), arrested the father of the first victim for daring to ask questions about what happened to his daughter, lied to parents about any sexual assaults taking place on school property and refused to take any responsibility for their demonstrated incompetence and deceit.
Ian Prior, head of Loudoun-based parent group Fight for Schools, told RedState of today’s developments:
“We will have more to say once the indictments are unsealed. However, we are beyond pleased that the families that were harmed by the egregious failures of the leadership of Loudoun County Public Schools, exacerbated by its repeated acts of deceit and dishonesty, will receive some measure of justice.
We also must recognize the parents in Loudoun County that have stood up for years highlighting the arrogance, incompetence, and gross neglect of those leaders. Those parents repeatedly took slings and arrows from the media, local elected officials, and others in their own community, for speaking truth to power – despite that, they never backed down.
Loudoun County should serve as a beacon of hope for the rest of the country. Citizens can band together and make a difference in the name of truth, justice, and accountability from their government.”
Dear readers,
On the Western Shore, this was a very predictable outcome that is, by my calculations, about a year late. That said, there are lessons for school administrators to take to heart, particularly in Wicomico. The mantra from eons past (I.e. “The wrong way and the Conway” among others) was, and continues to be a backward thinking doomed to failure. Covering things up has been the non story for many years, and it continues today. I would encourage parents to engage school administrators directly, but do so in a manner that is civil, and also easily provable. Beyond that, the alliance for defending freedom is the next step, with no hesitancy. Dr. Ziegler will never work on public Ed again, and is a shining example of what not to do.
Kind regards,
Paladin
