#1 A Maryland dad likely won't see any charges after he struck a local teacher with a baseball bat.

Most others would have sued for a million dollars. Better dig deeper on this guy.

#2 If investigators did not think the texts were inappropriate then why not release them to the public?

If the creecher did not think they were inappropriate then why not press charges?

I think they should check the text and phone history of this creecher since he became a teacher.

#3 The teacher sustained minor injuries.

Dad needs some more time in the batting cage.

#4 I suspect the investigators couldn't release the text even if they wanted to - privacy laws and all that.
That wouldn't prevent the parents from doing so - unless the teacher threatened charges if they did.
Would any charges stick after he refused the leave?

#5 Should have hit him with the bat until it got stuck.

#6 Baseball bat. Heck, a driver between the legs. Aim for the pin. Avoid the back bunker.

#7 The teacher sustained minor injuries.

Dad needs some more time in the batting cage.

I see it as a heroic effort in self restraint. If that was my daughter and the guy showed up and refused to leave, he would be headed to the morgue.

#8 Just remember, Catholic priests are the great danger children face (made up fact). Our glorious public school system will solve everything. As long as the solution involves indoctrinating the kids, more public employees, and higher taxes.
