The victims are all middle-aged men now: urban planners, computer scientists, technology salespeople — men with jobs, titles and families of their own.

But long-ago they were all boys — Grade 6 students who had the misfortune to fall under the gaze of a popular elementary school teacher named Brian Meilicke Moore, a predator who dazzled them with ski trips, beer and "games" played in the dark that scarred them for life.

How did this guy have so many opportunities to be with these young boys??

I don't recall ever having private trips, sleepovers, and showers (???) with any of my elementry school teachers. Especially not at age 11!

That seems so bizarre, and would have raised a thousand red flags with other teachers and parents.

How the hell did this happen?

According to the decision, the RCMP investigated Moore in 1988, but charges didn't come about until after Cooper began speaking publicly about his experiences in 2022.
