GOOD MORNING AMERICA’S HOMEPAGE:
https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/
I remember this from years ago!! Hope she is in a better headspace now!
To the ignorant GROWN people that know better just like this teacher knew better. I was this girl at one time only I went straight to the principal and never had feelings of intimacy like my science high school teacher. He was very inappropriate and even in class in front of the other peers. After complaining he quit. I’m not sure what transpired but he ended up working at another high school after that which was still sick. There wasn’t much I could do being I didn’t let it get beyond his advances. So to everyone thinking she knew better. She was still a kid. He is grown. I give props to his wife immediately divorcing him instead of sticking by him.
That is why I love animals humans are sucks
Reminds me of Lolita. When Delores mom died Humbert took her on a road trip. But not that what you would expect
Still lots of unanswered questions
He was right about one thing.. to not take the antidepressants..
Every manipulative NARCISSIST IS responsible for their own actions.
Every victim of sexual assault IS NOT to blame for their actions. If YOU are a victim of sexual assault, PLEASE know it waa not your fault, no matter in what anyone says. You can't change the past; but, you can take control of your future. It's not what happens to you in life, it's how you react, that's what really matters. The way you react to something can turn a bad situation into a good outcome or vice versa, your reaction determines everything.
"completely altered their appearance" he dyed his beard
So he groomed her considering her circumstances I believe her
Newsreader: "…pleaded guilty for transporting a minor across state lines for sexy faces…" 😳
Also, to folks blaming the girl, that is exactly the mindset that predators like this bastard use to prey on their victims.
Most of us in the comment section lost our v cards b4 15 years of age. Nothing in my right mind tells me that she didn't know what she was doing period. Woman always want to blame something on their actions facts. No Mr Cummings was wrong flat out. But she was also wrong period. I know how these females around here work. In one interview she said she wouldn't change her mistakes. And in another she says this stuff after the so called help. Then the county paid her and fam 600k to shut up and drop all the other allegations about other teachers and even more than teachers in this crooked town.
Obviously this child is not in her good senses, she looks depressed, def., but at that age anyway, they all are, very dangerous for someone to give them so much love outside the home, :>(
Wow!! Disturbing !!
She had the choice to run at Walmart why didn't she ???? She went winingly
10 years isn’t enough
SO many young girls have teachers just like this. I did. I even went to the principal about him. She told him to stop "hugging" me but took no further action, legal or otherwise. Years later, when I was brave enough to tell the police about him, the principal lied and said she had no recollection of anyone reporting this teacher's predatory behaviour. The police kept asking me if I'd wanted him to leave his wife for me. Of course I hadn't. My God. I was fourteen! He was never charged. I've since learned that he had about three victims every year till he retired.
He Faces up to 10 years ???? Wtf a lady just got sentenced 23 years for stealing Amazon packages
Bull. There's so many opportunities for her to escape. I think she's a willing victim. He's a predator but I really think there's something wrong with this young girl.
He manipulated a girl who was already down and has no where to turn
in my opinion, she planned to leave with him voluntarily
Old enough to know better
Smooth brained teen goes on holiday with her teacher, what's wrong with that?
Lol his last name is cummins.
Yea she was groomed but she left willingly so its not all his fault but he's a sick person for prying on a young girl
she wanted to go with him and I'm sure she knew how easily she can get away from him.
Sounded like a good idea at 1st. The truth is somewhere between both stories. He knew what He was doing. Bye bye!
