I was surprised to see Roger Bailey's name on the list. I thought that no minors had been involved with his story, but I must have been wrong if somebody saw fit to submit information on him to IHART. I do not know what his status with NTM was at the time, but I do not think he was a student.
No other name surprised me.
I am sickened, but not surprised by august19's post. NTM would throw a bone to victims, slap abusers on the hand, and gloss things over for everyone else, telling them to "Keep moving, nothing to see here."
It is 2014, and this is how they are handling things? How can anyone trust that current and future abuse in NTM will ever be treated any differently? I know they can't go back in time to do things differently, but based on how they are protecting abusers now - I doubt they would if they could.

It doesn't say that Roger Bailey III's abuses involved any minors. And since we have no report, we have no idea what the nature of his offense was.
I have to agree with you and Raz, that NTM's handling of this whole thing makes me wonder about their commitment to the protection and safety of children.
