The original FB link is after the text. I had to look them up (Wylie Police Department) because WHY LIE PD, right? But very real.

For two years, a public high school in Wylie, Texas had a problem with a sixteen-year-old boy. Marco Hunter-Lopez wanted to start a Republican club. He met every requirement the district laid out โ€” the ten members, the teacher sponsor, the room โ€” and was told no anyway, because his club was deemed too โ€œ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ญโ€. He says he was harassed and even threatened over his conservative views, and his story eventually reached a congressional hearing in Washington last month.

The administrator at the center of that fight has a name, and this week it surfaced in a very different kind of headline. Zachary Christian Neu, thirty-two, the former assistant principal and dean of students at Wylie East High School, was arrested on June 4 and charged with compelling prostitution of a person under eighteen โ€” ๐š ๐Ÿ๐ข๐ซ๐ฌ๐ญ-๐๐ž๐ ๐ซ๐ž๐ž ๐Ÿ๐ž๐ฅ๐จ๐ง๐ฒ. According to police, he offered a recent graduate alcohol and money for lingerie in exchange for sexual conduct.

It did not stop there. A day later, after investigators executed a search warrant on his personal devices, they identified ๐š ๐ฌ๐ž๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ and added a charge of improper relationship between an educator and a student. He is now being held in the Wylie jail on two bonds totaling one and a half million dollars.

Now sit with the order of events. This is the man who decided a teenagerโ€™s Republican club was too dangerous for a public school โ€” while, prosecutors now allege, he was ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐š๐œ๐ญ๐ฎ๐š๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ž๐๐š๐ญ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฐ๐š๐ฅ๐ค๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ข๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ก๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฌ. The official who policed a childโ€™s politics stands accused of preying on the very students he was trusted to protect.

It is one of the oldest patterns there is. The people most eager to police what a child is allowed to believe are so often hiding the worst of themselves behind that authority. Parents were told to trust the school. Its own dean, it turns out, ๐ฐ๐š๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐ž๐š๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฒ ๐ฌ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ ๐ก๐š๐ฏ๐ž ๐Ÿ๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ž๐.
