And the allegation that stops your heart: when the principal was presented with videos of assault and child pornography, his response was to tell students to destroy the evidence and keep quiet. Your child played football at Ursuline. Or your child is there now. Or your child knows someone on that team. And the question that is keeping you awake is the one no parent should ever have to ask: was my child one of them — and who is going to be held accountable for what happened?

Your child went to a football camp at a school you trusted — a Catholic school, a place built on a mission of character — and something was done to him there by teammates, and it was filmed, and adults knew, and the response was not to protect him.
