Let's put up a whole load of male teacher photos on this thread about child sexual assault. We could start with the ones who balance reporting and teaching. You may know a few.gavinmac wrote:I have no information on him at all and no reason to believe he is a pedophile, like I said. It's simply a photo of a Hi Bridge teacher and students from the Hi Bridge website.

The judge has denied Micky Rife's request to be released from detention pending trial.

These crappy schools in Cambodia are a disgrace but no worse than churches in Australia who refuse to co operate with the Police in child abuse matters.
The Catholics claim the the confession is sacred and they do not intend to comply with the law. Interesting that 35% of Australian politicians are Catholics.
This man or any other teacher should not be handling children.

You know, you aren't helping the male teacher fraternity. It's hard enough for them without you proclaiming everything creepy. Far out two guys side by side in a tuk tuk is creepy to you. I imagine people in general are creepy to you.

As my 80yo mother says about the subject: “don’t be exclusively wary of the obvious risks (teachers, coaches, religious figures etc) but be rather aware of your immediate circle such as family members, employed caretakers etc”.Indeed the majority of child abuse actually take place within the household.
I took her advice to the point that after a couple of years being married to my then young wife I started pondering if her over sensitivity to tickling might be induced from past family abuse. After careful thinking I raised the subject with her and it took a lot of convincing from her part to put me at ease.
Very complicated matter for sure.
Edit: forgot to tell I concur with what Violet said earlier; it does indeed read as Gavin’s finest outing job so far.

They did. I also played Santa clause.gavinmac wrote:Also, give that he was reprimanded in 2013 for improperly touching students, and given that the Vice Principal was also aware of him molesting another student in 2015, maybe Hi Bridge should have gotten someone else to play Santa Claus at the 2016 Christmas Party.

He wasn't fired.gavinmac wrote:Hi Bridge had a going away party for a teacher they fired for molesting students five years after receiving reports he was inappropriately touching students?napalmfred wrote:even had a going away party for him.
He quit to go work in the USA to make more money for his family. Then the ex got scared and reported him because she thought he would take the child away from her.
At least that is what the FBI document says.

That's not what the affidavit says. The document is very clear on the timeline:napalmfred wrote:He wasn't fired.gavinmac wrote:Hi Bridge had a going away party for a teacher they fired for molesting students five years after receiving reports he was inappropriately touching students?napalmfred wrote:even had a going away party for him.

- On or about 20 February 2018 the ex reported Micky to the U.S. embassy, fearful that Micky Rife was abusing their 2 year old daughter and might take her to the United States
- The affidavit said that due to the investigation that the FBI conducted in 2018 it led to Hi Bridge firing him on 5 December 2018
I'm guessing the students wouldn't be the most in-the-know about why he was leaving, and he just told them that because it's easier than saying "I was just fired for molesting your friends". And it's really fucked up they would have a going away party for him.napalmfred wrote: I have talked to a few of the students and they said that he quit to go work in the usa. even had a going away party for him.
IDK if he did it or not but hopefully he didn't.
I would not wish that upon any kids, especially his daughter Ashley.
My daughter went to school there while I was teaching. I have not asked her yet but I will her this weekend.
What did your daughter have to say about him?

Age restriction? ALL children?
Most international schools would close.
Secondly, we are all aware that hundreds of Khmer men have been involved in this as well, so why only foreigners?
A better solution is to demand a CRC, and for APLE or someone (you could do it) train people recruiting teachers how to find dirt on applicants.

Rife was clean before, no criminal record.vladimir wrote: A better solution is to demand a CRC, and fro APLE or someone (you could do it) train people recruiting teachers how to find dirt on applicants.
Now, whether he provided fake degrees and certificates to the get the job, or whether Hi Bridge doesn't require those documents, I don't know.

So why don't you offer to do training for MoEYS? Or put up something on their FB page?gavinmac wrote:Rife was clean before, no criminal record.vladimir wrote: A better solution is to demand a CRC, and fro APLE or someone (you could do it) train people recruiting teachers how to find dirt on applicants.

If I remember correctly, GMJS440 said he 'knows' people, surely he could organise an introduction?
