tominbkk Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Bizarre case. One would think if they had irrefutable evidence that the teacher was fooling with students he would be charged and expelled already? He was claiming they were over 20YO guys dressed up in school uniforms. A bit like those places you see in Soi Cowboy or Walking Street with the name 'school' in them. I would imagine if they were students from the school or other local schools there would be an investigation to identify them? Otherwise how can they know the truth? News on this story all of a sudden got very quiet...I'm curious to see if original accusations are still accurate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
