John Freshwater Case Drags On

The hearing for John Freshwater in the Mount Vernon Township in Ohio may drag on much longer than anticipated. Dean Narciso of the Columbus Dispatch writes:

Participants hope to wrap up a hearing on whether John Freshwater should keep his teaching job by sometime in June, but sessions could resume next fall, they said yesterday.

It is not clear how this case will affect other student/teacher incidents across the country, but to drag this out helps no one.
