More!

Goodness Gracious!

Quite a few folks who want to read about my niece Kaitlan Head, the small town valedictorian illegally banned by School Superintendent Carla Sigler from her own graduation, have contacted me. I had written about Kaitlan and her graduation experience in some of my previous blog entries. However, the article and comments on the website ViolatedRights.com that I had recommended reading is temporarily unavailable, due to the bandwidth limit being exceeded. That article had been read by almost 11,000 folks before it became temporarily unavailable. (Could be back on line any time now---keep checking!)

Folks wanting to know more of Kaitlan's Story can Google "carla sigler" to find many more interesting comments and articles relating to Kaitlan, the Banned Valedictorian. Kaitlan's Story is an unusual, interesting, and compelling TRUE human interest story with the age-old ingredients of anger, revenge, retaliation, and self-interest on the part of many of the participants.

Kaitlan's Story proves the old adage, "Actions have consequences." It is true that for every action--good or bad--there are consequences. Sometimes those consequences are surprising, shocking, and unexpected---for all parties involved---both victims and perpetrators.

As I have said before and will say again: I have met only two people like Carla Sigler and both were men. One is in prison for life, and the other one was murdered.

Kaitlan's Story is a classic, fascinating tale of GOOD versus EVIL and folks not being allowed to get away with doing despicable, shameful things. Reprehensible people mistakenly thought they could do whatever they wanted to do and not be held accountable. Much to their surprise, that is not at all what happened.

A lot of people have asked me if this incredible, appalling story really happened. The answer to that question is, "Sadly, it really did happen." I say "sadly" because not only were so many adults and children harmed by Carla Sigler and the small town schoolboard, but the little town as well.

Sadly---due to the controversy as a consequence of these actions--- the little school and the little town will never be the same.

And that is a shame.
