To think if you abuse a school child you are not "Having an affair"

AliceKyteler · 2024-05-07T17:53:19+00:00

This is how this case is being reported, unfortunately this is the only link I can find that doesn't have a paywall but in the N.I independent and all other publications it's still being stated as "An affair"

Truly awful, unfortunately this isn’t the only concerning teacher from this particular College. I understand another male teacher has been returned to employment following harassing of a female and taking voyeuristic photos. Wouldn’t be surprised if other man in question is returned to employment as well. Significant safeguarding issues there

He is a vile man. I dated him for 6 months, he beat me, emotionally and mentally manipulated me, left me feeling worthless, he’s a narcissist and just a disgusting man! had so much therapy after dating him, for such a short amount of time he really messed me up mentally, but im on the other side now and so much stronger, never will I ever allow this to happen to me again. My case against him was also thrown out of court, he’s very manipulative and convincing, comes across very articulate and smart but in truth he’s a snake. Glad to see karma caught up with him in the end!

@Annieb97
Speaking as someone who was twice the age you were then and dealt with the police (no court case) over my controlling and abusive ex who then believed my abuser that I was severely mentally unwell, I have absolutely nothing but admiration that you went to court at such a young age
I know it's been a long time coming but I hope that p.o.s being brought to light and his mask falling off can give you some peace of mind.
Thankyou for reaching out on this thread. I am so glad to see you are ok.

Thank you so much for your message, this is the first time since the court case that I've spoken openly about him and your message has brought a little tear to my eye. And I'm so sorry you also went through a rough time with your ex, it's so unfair. It's very easy to turn it around on the girl and make them look 'crazy'. Hope you're doing okay x

Remember the Jeremy Forrest case? He was the teacher who groomed a student from when she was 14 and ran off with her - I should say ABDUCTED her - to France. Thankfully, he was jailed for it.

But I recall reports saying "They're in love"...

Yes I do, I remember all the headlines making it sound like a big romance and all the jokes too. Urgh.

Thank you! Both the judge and Connor's barrister destroyed me on the stand. I broke down. I was 22, he was 33.
And now thinking back, I remember he went drinking with his students one night at the end of term, and had a few of them back to his house after the bar to continue drinking and I thought it was a bit strange. But he told me they were 18/19 and he wanted to celebrate them passing their exams.
He also told me about one of his female students at the time harrassing him & saying how much she fancied him etc. I was so young and naive, he was so good with his words and could convince me of anything.
Makes me feel sick to think about

This is him. This is my ex boyfriend, I'm the one who took him to court after he abused me. The judge called me a liar and I was made out to be a crazy, jealous girlfriend. I knew he would do worse to another girl some day.

So sorry about the way you were treated

YourPithyLilacSheep · 02/06/2024 19:33

Ugh. What an awful man. I hope you’re OK now @Annieb97 I guess there’s a certain schadenfreude about being proved right about his abusive behaviour a second time - although I don’t suppose you or the girl he abused were the only women/girls he’s abused in his short life. The judge was an idiot in your case.

I am, thank you! It was mixed emotions to hear about all of this, but I was always hopeful karma would get him at some point. I feel awful for that poor girl and any other girl he has hurt, but I'm glad he will finally get what he deserves!

I'm very sorry you were treated so horrifically, unfortunately narcissists very often have positions of power and they automatically stick up for another narcissist. It must have been a nightmare having a judge gaslight you too.
I could tell how vile that judge was.
I wish you only the best x

Reminds me of this where a 15 year old schoolboy was referred to as a "lover".

Fighter 'murdered teacher and tried to kill her lover, 15, after their affair'

Paul Robson, 50, is accused of killing Caroline Kayll, 47, with whom he had a covert relationship behind bars, at her home in Linton, Northumberland on November 15 last year

Hope this work. The headlines are pure gaslighting. He wasn't accused of having an affair. He was accused of sexual activity with a child FFS!

For those of you that can't see the links this is about Connor McCullough (teacher) from Northern Ireland being charged with sexual activity with a child.
The second link was to an article in Derry Now about him being cleared of a "Domestic attack" in 2019.
