Ya'll ain't gonna believe this....

The black cloud continues to hang over the area. My sister is going through a divorce and has known for a while that her husband was having an affair. She would check his cell phone for text messages at night, after he had gone to sleep and sent me the womans AIM ID to see if I could figure out who it was. Well, I did... Turns out, the jackass is having an affair with a 17 year old in his math class. Yep, he's a high school teacher. I consult The Man, The Man sets us on course and the police show up at my sister's house at 2:00 am to arrest her husband. So far, he's been charged with 3 counts of producing child *****graphy. The police have confiscated all the computers in the house and are still going through those so I expect that there may be more charges coming. Somehow, the idiot has convinced his parents that the 17 year old set him up and framed him so they bailed him out of jail. I can't go into more details because the investigation is still underway, but you can read about it here: http://news.search.yahoo.com/news/search?fr=sfp&ei=UTF-8&p=scott+lempa I fly out to Chicago tomorrow to help my sister and her 4 kids. I'm hoping that I can talk her into packing up and coming home with me. You can't imagine what kind of damage this has done to the kids. Connie

omg, that's awful! i feel so badly for your sister. i'm so sorry. it's too bad that squids like this can have such easy access to our children. best wishes to you and your family gael

(((( Connie )))) I'm so sorry your sister has to go through this. My thoughts are with you while you are away helping her. Hugs, Mo

It never ceases to amaze me the level of degenerates that are swarming in our communities. My heart breaks for your sister and especially for those kids. They are lucky to have you, Connie. Why oh why is the human race so addicted to sex? Why can't it merely serve as a whole and healthy way for us to connect, intimately and honestly, with one another? I will think quiet and positive thoughts for you and your family to heal. Love, M.

Connie, my dear, What do I say in response to this?? As a father of 2 girls, I'm outraged at hearing this news. As a friend, I'm shocked that you have more trouble to burden you. You and your loved ones have certainly had more than your fair share of problems to contend with. I'm in awe of your strength in coping with all of this in spite of your own post-op issues. All I can do here is remind you that you have friends here that care and to repeat my same old warning to remember your own health while coping with the problems of others. I can only hope that some rays of sunshine can burn through that dark cloud of yours very soon. Be well and stay in touch. Mike

Ok, don't take this out of context, but it has become very clear to me you are a "rescue person". That is not a bad thing, but I'm the same way. The world needs us because we are willing to put aside whatever we have going to help others. I'm proud of you, but it is something you need to be aware of so it doesn't kill you. Second, when I went into Law Enforcement I was quite frank in my interview that I could not handle pedophiles, and that if hired I could never be primary on a ped case as I would most likely do the "Bobbit" on any male who saw fit to rob the child of being able to be a child. That being said, and this in no ways justification for your soon to be former brother-in-law's behavior, but 17 is what it used to be. Personally, I had a situation in which I was hired as security last fall at a dance. A very attractive and well built young lady struck up a conversation. I was nice, but professional. Well, I worked a basketball tourney a couple a weeks ago and guess who is now a senior and wants to play, " I know the cop" for her friends. I saw the handwriting on the wall on this one, and while I don't profess to be Brad Pitt an uni and a gun just do something for some people. I have no doubt that had I acted at all interested, this little hottie would want to get to know me more. To be honest, I was cold and was almost and a&*hole to her. She picked up on it that Homey was going to play her game and went off to find guys who she should be dealing with. While it is not right, there are an awful lot of young ladies out there being very aggressive. Personally, I love women, not little girls. I too have three of them at home so I may by hypersensitive to it. What happened here is very wrong, and he should face whatever is allowable by law. He is the adult, and regardless of what is throw in his face, he needs to back off. I wish you the best of luck. Back to the "rescue person". I say this only because we tend to be willing to cast aside our own needs, including taking care of ourselves to help others. It is not a sign of weakness to say no sometimes and that you need a little rest. I have had to learn to say that because in the long run you can't help if you can't make the right choices because you are so tired you can't think. I'll be thinking of you, and be sure to stay away from sharp objects if you see your monster in law, otherwise he may be missing a few inches from his body.

O.K. Connie- Enough is Enough!! Prayers headed out to the Glendale area to release this black cloud that has been over you & your family this past few months. Keep in Control & as the others of this board, Please take time for YOU!! Your Health is important, too!! Big Huggs to you for all the giving you do for everyone!! Marilyn, the Bearlady

HOLY S^&( girl! What in the hell.....if I turned it on Channel 12 at 2pm would I hear some sappy music and see your face lit up on the screen of one of those afternoon soap operas? I'm pretty sure I'd see you there! Just incredible the stuff you encounter....I hope your sister is doing well. Either way regardless of how things were going, this has to be hard on her. Hopefully she will be able to move on and find happiness without this guy in her life... Dina

wow- i could tell a different story-but i won't i am sorry that your sister and children are going thru this- it will remain with them forever- sending hugs and prayers.
