Growing in the Industry I Love.

Sunday

Ran a pleasant 5 miler earlier this crisp autumn evening, the first run in nearly a week, and only the 2nd since NYC marathon. It felt good, breaking what seems like an aimless rut. Wore the Alphafly's to continue to learn how to run on carbon plates.

🚨 WHISTLEBLOWER SITUATION — BUFFALO, NY SCHOOL DISTRICT 🚨

Warnings: Mentions of SA, Abuse, and all the things that go with it

Is anyone talking about what's happening in the Buffalo Public School System in New York?

There are extremely disturbing allegations coming out involving abuse cover-ups—including SA (sexual assault), physical abuse, and outright neglect by school officials—and it seems like local media is barely touching it. The situation involves both elementary and high school students, and there’s reason to believe that legal pressure is being used to silence reports and protect the district, not the children.

What’s being reported (from a whistleblower/cop who works closely with abuse victims):

A break-in at a grade school resulted in an attempted kidnapping of two children under 9 (one boy, one girl).   ➤ The school never informed parents.   ➤ Video evidence was allegedly deleted.   ➤ One staff member secretly recorded the footage and sent it to district lawyers (with judge signatures!), and still… no action taken.

A high school girl told her counselor she was being physically abused by her father.   ➤ The counselor allegedly dismissed her due to a past lie about being “popular.”   ➤ Days later, she recorded her father beating her and showed the same counselor.   ➤ They still refused to report it.   ➤ Eventually, someone did—but not the mandated reporter. That’s illegal.

A 16-year-old male student is accused of sexually assaulting multiple 14-year-old girls.   ➤ No clear response from the school system.

The detective who came forward has worked with abused children for years. Instead of addressing the crimes or victims, local media turned their attention toward discrediting him—all because he spoke out on a podcast, not through “official” channels.

If true, this is a systemic failure. We’re talking about people in power actively silencing reports of child abuse, protecting institutions over kids, and failing legal obligations as mandated reporters. The public deserves to know—and these kids deserve to be protected.

Signal boost. Look into it. Demand accountability.

This hits to close to home for me because I was raped by a boy in my class, I was told he was 'a good guy' and 'couldn't have done it' and then he sent photos he took of me after he what he did to me; they did nothing about it, it was a year after the whole nude sexting law was put into place. Months later, I heard he did it again, to another girl, and then another school. A girl was traumatized because she was assaulted at school, and the teachers pretty much said that. "I don't get paid enough for me to care."

Though it wasn't the same state but it's in one of the nearby states.

Well-known things ALL public schools do:

-Public schools are bad, they let predators in more often than not, they move them around instead of reporting them (for YEARS).

-They generally believe the child is lying, do not report, or they go to the abusers and believe them more often than not, over the child.

-Teachers do 'hot-potato' with victims that do come to them, WITH ANYTHING.

-Pushes off to 'we will talk about this tomorrow' or 'look into it tomorrow', and do not report anything to law enforcement.
