March 6, 2019 (CultureGuard) — Culture Guard has urged police to investigate an incident of probable sexual exploitation of students at an Abbotsford high school.
Kari Simpson, Executive Director of Culture Guard, says she was contacted by the parents of a student at Robert Bateman Secondary School, after their daughter informed them that Grade 12 students at RBSS were compelled to watch an on-line video that idolized a mass murderer, featured child pornography and the violent sexual assault of a minor, and the normalizing of vulgarity and abnormal ideas about relationships.
The student told her parents that during a Family Studies class, teacher Justin Hung exposed students to an HBO video entitled This is What the Life of an Incel Looks Like.
“Incel” is a term used by sex activists to designate an “involuntary celibate.”
On Feb. 19, 2019 she said Hung showed the class the short documentary of the life of a confused and troubled male involuntary celibate. The mother, after viewing the video, told Simpson that the “video was spiked with perversion and pornography, and overflows with unhealthy, irrational ideas about women, sex and relationships.”
Kari Simpson said Culture Guard has “zero tolerance for teachers who sexually exploit their students,” and says she has filed a complaint with the B.C. Commissioner for Teacher Regulation. Simpson says she also believes the police must investigate the video for possible Criminal Code offences relating to child porn, sexual exploitation and indecency.
“There is no justification available to this teacher for exposing students to perversion and this demented form of pornography and a vulgar, victim-embraced lifestyle,” says Simpson.
The mother of the student, Laurie Meadows (not her real name) had contacted the school, and has now met with Vice Principal Janelle Dick twice. But these meetings have done nothing to alleviate the concerns of the parents, and have only served to increase them, says Simpson.
While answers have not been forthcoming, Laurie says she has received is a lot of pressure to remain quiet, including being “hushed” at a meeting by the “investigator” for the school, Ray Prosser—who is listed on LinkedIn as being “Owner/Consultant for Prosser HR Solutions”.
But Mrs. Meadows states: “I will not be silenced. Parents should know what their child has been exposed to!”
Equally troubling, says Simpson, is the fact that the school failed to inform police. Laurie Meadows and her husband have now filed a report with the Abbotsford Police and the matter is being investigated.
The teacher, Justin Hung, is reported to be on leave from his duties at the school.
Robert Bateman Secondary is no stranger to sexual exploitation of children. Last year a drama teacher forced a young student, against her will, to play the part of a lesbian lover.
In May of 2018, Henry Kang, a 50-year-old teacher who had taught at both Robert Bateman and W.J. Mouat secondary schools, was charged with two counts each of sexual assault and sexual exploitation.
In March of 2018, students walked out of a sexually exploitive “Out in Schools” presentation, an outreach program peddled to school districts throughout BC as an “anti-bullying” program—but which the first Executive Director of Out in Schools told SFU Student Radio in an interview was really designed to increase youth attendance at Vancouver’s annual Queer Film Festival. (Culture Guard has a tape recording of the interview.)
