need all the facts to decide

The chances that SOMETHING happened with those three young ladies is pretty good. Exactly WHAT did happen is the problem. As I have said in the past, a touch on the arm or shoulder, or a pat on the back could be misinterpreted, are mistakes, and should result in a warning at the very least. Any touching of a more personal nature or explicit comments would be clearly out of bounds and DOES require strong action as a deterrent, in my opinion. Until we know ALL the facts its hard to make up ones mind about this. The question is- will we ever know all the facts? I am also concerned that Gym hired somebody without checking him out completely in terms of his actual qualifications and experience, like he said he did. Perhaps, if he had, he might have found something in his background checks and research that could have tipped him off BEFORE he was hired. It is clear that due diligence was NOT done, again, this time by the City Manager. Dr. Mel P. Johnson
