perp has been moved out of contact with kids.. what does it mean?
Well in doing some scoping around on the 'net I found the minutes of a certain "management association" meeting that indicated my fiance's perp is now working in a new position for the same employer... but is not directly involved on a day to day basis with young people as he was prior to now.
Am wondering if this is a "promotion" or a way to get him away from kids due to the investigation that is underway on him (launched by my fiance by the way).
This whole thing is just taking so long - I seriously hope justice will be served but the investigation committee is being so slow. The investigation committee indicated when the case was filed over a year ago that it would be completed in January and here we are now almost July and the thing is still going.. they are being pretty tight lipped about it with my fiance..
BLAH! This sucks!! My mind is just spinning.. what if they indeed have given this guy a promotion??? How is justice served then? What will that say to my fiance.. that if you molest a kid you get to be promoted??? What the hell???
I thought these types of groups took allegations of sexual abuse seriously these days!!! It certainly does not seem like they are performing this investigation in the best interest of the complainant!!!!!!!!!!
I never realized how much it would mean to my fiance if this guy was punished until recently. I mean you can never give a survivor back his innocence, so I wondered.. why bother? You cant change history. But now I realize that if this group gives legitimacy to my fiance's pain and makes the perp pay for what he did by revoking his licence to practice his profession, then maybe he might feel that somehow in the overall cosmic sense of things, that this guy's actions would be punished and my fiance could see what happened to him in a new light - in the light that it was WRONG and he does not deserve the pain and anger and guilt and shame he's been carrying and that someone somewhere has finally stepped in to protect him.
Also an investigation working out in my fiance's favour may give him some ammunition to apply to a victims compensation fund to pay for therapy and/or some schooling (he was abused during high school by someone integral to his education so naturally he did not want to attend school anymore and did not graduate from H.S. and now he wants to go to University but cannot afford to pay for all of it.. if my fiance could get $$ for therapy and tuition that would also somehow help things).
But alas.. things are taking so long.. there is NO feedback from the investigation committee.. its just so, painful. Kind of like being ignored/victimized all over again in my opinion, which I suppose is the big fear for a lot of people in even launching an investigation in the first place.
And although we've discussed it on here, there's really no other options for my fiance at this time unless he wanted to go to a civil or criminal investigation though the legal system, and I dont think he wants to do that at this time, much too personal and too painful.
And there were suggestions to let the media know, but unfortunatley this is Canada and we dont go for those big-time newsy splashy things.. up here launching a public information campaign would probably not even get a whiff of interest in the media for fear of charges of slander or libel or defamation, so that option is out too. Until this guy is found guilty of anything he's considered innocent, and anything we say would be defamation of character in that case.
DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel like going on the website where this perp's picture is posted and writing the word PEDOPHILE over it a million times.. I feel like giving y'all the URL so you can all go and do it too...
I am so angry about this!!!!!!!!
Thanks for letting me rant. Thats about all I can do at this time.
Oh one thing I did yesterday was to write an email to the perp's employer and ask what their policy is on "employment of staff who are currently under investigation for professional misconduct with the professional practice association".
We'll see where that one goes.
