From this article, http://wpri.com/2016/01/05/alleged-sexual-abuse-victims-to-speak-in-boston/ :
“Two of the alleged perpetrators include a current Episcopal priest & an assistant school choir director in New York City.”
The fact that two of the alleged perpetrators are currently employed in positions that have contact with children is a big deal to me. Apparently Zane and his administration never reported any of the actions of the alleged perpetrators at the time they were fired (although it was/is required by law) many years ago. Did subsequent headmasters and administrators also purposely avoid reporting the info when they became aware of it?
If my kid were at St George’s (or looking to apply to St George’s) I would want to know that Peterson and his current administration are acting with full transparency leaving no stone unturned to ferret out the whole truth. A new investigation without ANY conflict of interest seems warranted to me considering how serious and widespread these allegations are regardless of when they occurred. The abuses did not occur under Peterson but he has the obligation to make darn sure that all of the information comes to light so that the victims and the school can move on.
