Found this forum due to the gossip around Piedmont and had to respond. Everyone is human. People make mistakes. This may sound crazy to most of you but if you really are on this gossip box because you care about this family then you should pray for them. Remember that everyone has to answer for what they do. YOU are no better than the person you are talking about. And while you think you are so much more righteous than those you speak of YOU ARE NOT. And don’t forget GOD speaks of forgiveness!

Sounds like you are judging us!

Has he repented of this sin and asked for forgiveness? If he has you are right he should be forgiven. If he is still leading this young girl astray, then you are wrong, we are much better than this person or any other sexual predator.

Until he turns from this action the community should shun him. If he tries to coach another softball team it is important that player parents can google the name and see this thread and know what kind of a person they are dealing with.

Lastly, are you saying you would feel safe letting this man be alone with your 16 year old daughter?

OKIEBANKS is full of crap. Earlier here he said he wasn't defending Todd. BS. Someone told me that he's showing up at the court dates as a character witness in Todd's defence on the hearing about Victim Protective Orders. Todd was trying to change his story and say none of the threats and physical violence to his wife and kids happened. Being caught in another lie. Not sure OKIEBANKS is who I would want as a character witness anyway. Some of the people were talking about how he's quite a hot head.

Ouch Anon, I feel a law suit coming on if we continue to talk about my Character on this forum.

I too went to school with Todd & his wife. I know them well. I have heard the talk & know that what he has been accused of is true. I am the parent of a teenage & went through what this younger girls parents are going through. It is very harmful to the family when this kinds of things happen. What is the most hurtful is that the legal system will not help you in any way. A child of 16 cannot make a good choice for themselves when somebody more wise to the world begins grooming them.
I was at the Piedmont 4th activities & hear of this forum. I am very disappointed in the way that the posters act. The credibility is destroyed by the pettiness. Grow up & act live 40 somethings, support the families involved. Pray that Todd will turn his life around & be a father to his children, & protect them from something of this nature happening to his own children. If we would be supportive of each other & walk beside one another to help turn the path in the right direction,lend support & comfort where needed. when needed our world would be a much better place.
My heart breaks for the girl & her family & also for Todd's wife & children. They need support not judgement & gossip. Todd also needs good guidance & counsel not judgement & gossip. Judgement is God's. Our job is to love. Not excuse, but love to right actions.
