Thank you MariaDi—I totally understand needing to protect your own case, but please do let me know how/if it works out. I've been in contact with Ms. Patel as well; your lawyer is right about that non-disclosure being bogus. About the comments and WW coverage: we've switched web platforms and comment systems since that...

I saw the interview with him when he was sitting under the blue tarp. He stated flat out that he didn't intend to/wouldn't spend even one night in jail. Perhaps he wanted to be shot when he appeared to be reaching for the gun he had on him.

If you believe this bunch is standing up for the Hammonds, you are sadly misinformed. The Bundy's and their ilk have nothing but their own agenda at heart.

I don't believe they have any obligation to discuss another student's discipline or school record with other parents. In fact, I believe, they could actually be sued for doing so.
