Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Why does the school systems always put these sleeze bags on PAID leave? I know he hasn't been convicted of anything yet, but consider ther facts:
"Harden, 45, slurred his speech and smelled of alcohol and marijuana after wrecking his SUV into 1085 Lakegrove Court at 8:45 p.m. March 21, Westerville police said in court documents.
Harden failed a field-sobriety test and admitted to officers that he drank six beers that evening, police said.
Officers said they recovered drug paraphernalia inside his SUV and an unopened 12-ounce bottle of Bud Light was found nearby."
I say put these idiots on leave WITHOUT pay (LWOP); and if a miracle occurs, and he beats is in court (i.e. not guity) covert the LWOP to paid leave retroactively.

Yeah, I know that is not the "American way of thinking" (i.e. guilty until proven innicent). However, as a taxpayer (though not in the Olentangy school district), I just don't agree with the concept that an employee paid by tax dollars gets a (basically unlimited) paid vacation for being arrested for a crime.

Part of me agrees. Fire the sumbitch! But, you have to give the dude a fair chance in court. And if you say that the facts in this case are overwhelmingly against the guy, what about next time? The facts may not be quite so against the next guy. And the next guy.. and so on. Where do you draw the line?

Now THIS is a real principal story.
Principal admits throwing excrement

Courts Bureau
A suspended Toronto elementary school principal has pleaded guilty to throwing feces (excrement) on a child.
Maria Pantalone, 49, was charged with two counts of assault - one against that child and one against another ? but only admitted to one of the charges today.
?I couldn?t take it any more,? she testified, in describing the provocative circumstances leading up to the incident last June 30.
But she agreed it wasn't in any way justified.
Pantalone, who is the sister of Toronto Deputy Mayor Joe Pantalone, was principal of Keele Street Junior Public School and Mountview Alternative, which collectively have 500 students and operate out of the same building near Keele St. and Humberside Ave.
The names of the victims cannot be published owing to a ban imposed by provincial court Justice Howard Borenstein.
Neither were students at her school.
Since being charged last summer, she has been suspended with pay and ordered to stay away from anyone under the age of 16, unless under supervision.
Both Crown prosecutor John Ball and defence lawyer Michael Caroline jointly recommended that she receive an absolute discharge, which will leave her without a criminal record, and enter into a peace bond not to have contact with the two children.
Caroline submitted some 20 letters of support for his client, including one signed by 19 staff members at her school.
