As a husband and a father I must say that our children absolutely need the finest examples of how to live, not all the evil in the world today. Adultery, lies, disrespect, etc always affect so many more people than the offenders realize. I notice this particular 'principal' did not say anything about how his evil behavior affects all the innocent children. But it does. Thank God there are still people who do not agree with evil and took the time to point it out. Where are the heroes today? The future of this world, the children, deserve better.

Has others noticed how many times Nico used the word "evil"? This behavior is not evil. Not ethical, perhaps not moral, definitely not smart to do it during school hours. They could have been more discreet...but this behavior is not in any way shape or form...evil.
On another note, the residents of the complex must have boring lives or influenced by inane soap operas to spend time and effort to list every meeting. Did they audio and video record the meetings too?

Another point...why is the principal pubically aplogizing?
"I apologize to everyone impacted by my poor judgment, especially my family, wife and children."
To his wife and family, I can see this. He has nothing to apologize to the public for. The offense is one of lack of discretion with another adult and goes not(in my opinion) involve the the public whatsoever.
Extramartial affairs are questionable...not illegal.

I don't understand why this is even newsworthy. Yes, he had an affair. But that is between him, his wife and the other woman and her husband. If he carried on during times that he was supposed to be at the school, then his employers could weigh in and ask for his resignation which apparently they did. I would imagine there was some morality clause in his contract which he violated which led to his resignation.

But newsworthy for the rest of us? Not hardly. Who cares?

The act is EVIL, and borders on the line between extreme narcissism and psychopathy. Participants are engrossed in self, with little or no regard to the LIFELONG deleterious consequences to the innocents inevitably involved; children and the other spouses.

Adultery wasn't listed as a stoning offense by the Hammurabic Code and the Bible for no reason. It is wholly destructive. The fact that this society has turned a blind eye to the nature and consequence of acts that are inherently evil is explanatory as to why we are being subsumed by non-recoverable social maladies. Every succeeding generation has become less moral and ethical than the one preceding it (by example?), and people, actions do have consequences. To hell with the both of them!

So many of your ilk are afraid to use such a word, or to openly hold anyone accountable to any moral standard, lest you be condemned as being judgemental. Unethical, immoral, "evil": they're all the same thing, bro. He was: (1) a married man banging another woman; (2) a supervisor banging a subordinate; and (3) an employee getting paid for banging during work hours.

Now plotz, it is one thing to not condemn, which I endorse because yes we're all fallible as humans. But it is another matter to refuse to recognize wrongdoing, or to minimize the wrongdoing. Evil doesn't always have to be big or egregious, in fact I suspect that it usually starts out pretty small.

Well, I don't know...I've always thought of "evil" as someone who actually enjoys inflicting pain (physical or emotional) on someone else. Like a teacher who gets a rise out of embarrassing or berating a student, or a parent who sickly enjoys beating their child for the feelings of power and control. It's that look that crosses someone's face when, despite knowingly hurting someone else, they just can't help but actually smile. In this case, I seriously doubt the guy (or the gal) was actually thinking much about the consequences. I doubt they enjoyed the idea that they were cheating on their spouses and hurting them, and I bet they now deeply regret the pain they inflicted. I know that's not the dictionary definition, just sort of my own personal interpretation.

Acemon,

The reason that the school got involved is because, "... having an extramarital relationship during school hours." Hence he was derelict in his responsibility to his employer, the school district. I agree that if it was off of school property and on his own time, then the school district should stay out of it. However, he would not be much of a "model" for the kids.

You forgot to mention - "during school hours". You don't even have to get into morality. The guy was sneaking off his job - he could just as easily been fired just for that.

At least the guy had the decency to quit at once - he knew he was in the wrong and took his knocks for it. Good for him.

"And its none of those Greeley spies business either. "

sure it is. it's their kids school, and their principal isn't doing his job -- and apparently neither is the SPECIAL EDUCATION teacher.

now, if this was a private company then i would agree with you completely. but it's not, and its OUR money they waste doing whatever it is they are doing.

again, they could have been out bowling and this would still be as newsworthy -- the fact that they were out having sex has little to do with it.

I was not commenting on his abuse of company time, the ethics of his behavior, or the waste of taxpayer's dollars. I was just asking "Nico" to justify his claims of "damage" to the innocent children. As far as rumors are concerned, it would be other adults spreading the rumors who might cause concern among the children, but not the principal himself. I agree the guy did the right thing by falling on his sword, but even if he'd had the affair on his own time, and with a woman who had no connection with the school, he still would have been roasted by the press and pressured to resign.

I guess in this case the word 'harmless' would depend on whether one ended up cheating...

Those who think this is strictly a private issue are overlooking the fact that he was having sex with another school employee, and allegedly not for the first time. So being the superintendent, what happens when the sexy little tart gets promoted over the dowdy dogged drone employee? Yes, you guessed it, the other employee claims sexual favoritism/harassment, the grievance process begins, the lawyers get to work, and Joe and Janet Taxpayer get to shell out for Mr. Randy Superintendent.

Perhaps you haven't lived in Denver as long as I have, but about 8 or 9 years ago there was a teacher who was caught having an affair with someone not connected with their school.

What the people commenting here don't know is that Mr. Rangel was just appointed principal at Greeley Central (In April to start this fall). He was a principal at the middle school that feeds into Central. Although there was an application process many felt that the superintendent had already made her decision. He replaced a beloved principal who had been there many years and was forced out by the superintendent and the goings on here in District 6. There were many community members and students who were not happy with the selection. Mr. Rangel has had the reputation of having affairs, flirting and so on with co-workers and other women for many years. I myself have seen him with another woman (not his wife) in an intimate manner. My children have had him as their principal in middle school and we witnessed favoritism to athletes and his kids buddies and uphappy teachers due to his ways. I have had conferences with him as have many of my fellow parents and we all felt we were not listened to by a principal who believed he was pretty important. So I know there are many up in Greeley that are relieved and happy that Mark Rangel won't be at Central. He made only one mistake in his journey to be powerful and that is that he got caught. We all feel very sad for his kids and his wife (who had to know about his infidelity for many years). They are a nice family and this has to hurt them badly.

Here's the abridged story from The Post:

Former Denver City Attorney Larry Manzanares, who was facing criminal charges in a stolen laptop case, shot himself to death under a walking bridge in the Highline Canal area on Friday evening, police said Saturday.

"The Manzanares family extends its gratitude to the multitude of people who supported Larry despite unfair and one-sided attempts to publicly try him in the press by attacking his character."

The former judge was charged June 13 with theft of a Denver District Court laptop.

Jefferson County prosecutors filed three felony charges of theft, embezzlement, tampering with evidence and two misdemeanor counts of misconduct and computer crime.

The laptop was also used to download pornographic images and movies, according to an arrest affidavit.

Manzanares resigned from the City Attorney's post in February after a tracking device led police to find the the stolen laptop in his home. He told the Denver Post that he purchased the laptop from a man in a downtown Denver parking lot in order to save money.

I could indeed be mistaken, but my understanding is that he stole his own District Court laptop, provided to him for official use when he was still a judge.

He may even have stolen it because he was afraid the District Court would find the porn on it, so that aspect could have been very relevant, had the story continued to the resolution of the charges. It ended tragically, but in my opinion it's a bit much to ask the media to ignore the porn aspect, given how sensational the story was.

okay. well, if they are found to not have EVER been on the clock or violated the terms of their STATE PAID contracts, then I will concede this to you.

HOWEVER, that isn't going to be the case. you and i both know that, and you can argue until you are blue in the face -- but this guy was abusing the system and got busted. it's NOBODY'S fault but his, and CERTAINLY not the people who caught them and turned them in for WHATEVER reason.

"Personal responsibility should be excercised, yeah. How about our social responsibilities?"

you mean like NOT HAVING AN AFFAIR IN THE FIRST PLACE?? because, again, it's not like the consequences of an affair are a secret to anyone old enough to have one. THAT is the personal responsibility i'm talking about that you have completely missed.

YES, i feel for these families and this community. this is embarassing and it stinks for a lot of people. but, again, it's nobody's fault they got caught and are in the public but their own and how you seem to be able to overlook that is absurd to me.

"And that type of snitchery is not "the right thing to do". Its cruel and repugnant, and they had no business doing it."

so please, explain why is calling out a publicly paid principal and special education teacher wasting time and taxpayer money is bad? (again, you are more than likely going to be wrong if you think this was only a noontime thing, so lets just accept that and move on. contrary to the little bit you snipped out to help your argument, the entire article says "they reported that many of them occurred during school hours at an apartment near where the residents live. The meetings typically took place in the mid-morning or afternoon, according to the residents." which clearly includes more than just a 'nooner'.)

personally, i don't want that bs from taxpaid people on MY time. what they do outside of work, i could care less about. and if that's all this was, i'd be on here arguing along side you. but it's not, and i'm not.

if you think this guy shouldn't have resigned or that this isn't a matter, them i'm glad you aren't working the school board.

but beyond that, and something i also wanted to stick away from but will at least say this: if the parents DID allow this to go on, and it became a rumor around school and WHEN later they got busted, what kind of role model are they being for their kids? or allowing to be in a position of that for their kids?

live and let live - butt out of people's personal lives you judgmental interferers - imagine if everyone who ever had an affair had to resign from their jobs - there would hardly be anyone employed! - surely a discreet warning would have been all that was needed for this relationship to cease - lastly, what if the new principal is as pure as the driven snow morally yet has no talent, no qualities that will enrichen your kid's lives, no ideas that will grow the school and no character traits your kid can admire and who is no fun.....then what?

man, i'm glad our school boards and court systems -- while flawned, beurocratic and full of morons, are are at LEAST not run by people like you that can overlook the abuse of public trust and money.
