A Wolfe County elementary school teacher has been indicted by a grand jury on sex-related charges. Robert Brewer has been suspended with pay from his job as a third grade teacher at Campton Elementary.

The indictment accuses Brewer of sexually abusing two children under the age of twelve from September of last year to this past April. The mother of one of the victims tells 27 NEWSFIRST both girls were in Brewer's class. The indictment was filed Thursday afternoon.

Deputies with the Wolfe County Sheriff's Department arrested Brewer Thursday night. He'll be in court June 7th to answer to the charges.

well-now the trial is over and guess what that overwhelming evidence was not there-there was none-no evidence whatsoever-so all u uneducated ediots out there can now see that he is or was not guilty-i hope the people who tried to ruin his life can live with it because it almost killed him inside-and his family as well-the kids r inocent though, they done what they were told-and i feel sorry for them-i love to read these comments just so i can sit and make fun of the people who are so dumb and think they are so smart-hope you all eat ur hearts out cause he is now proven inocent-haha

Dee---oh it was and is true. Just wait it will happen again because people like you allow it to. Hard to convict someone who is friends and have pull with the whole town. this town is all political and it is not what you do but who you know and Robert knew plenty in high places. That is what this boils down to. If that would have been anyone else without his pull he would have been gone for 20 yrs.

I think that some are taught to lie as well as other things that happen in life. I love children and have daughters of my own, but the fact is that this is not true.

I believe in the court system. Please lets leave the harsh gossip about Robert Brewer and the victims die. We have to believe that justice will prevail. I pray that the truth will come out and all if any are guilty will be punished. If its a frame or truth. If its a set up punish the ones that done this, if he's guilty then do so to him. Lets hear the facts not the gossip. I pray that this all ends with a fair trail and let the chips fall where they may.

Well since my last post on this thread I have been researching whether or not Robert did this. I find it hard to believe as I know the man and have for years but from what I found out from very neutral sources and some even close to Robert that the evidence is overwhelming against him. Looks like it is going to be a hard row to hoe for many years to come there for Robert. Sickens me to even think that he would do this but all I can say that he better get the Vaseline ready cause prison inmates do not like folks that touch kids. And old Bob and Tom show song rings to mind right now when I think about Robert in prison. I am sure that you all know the one that I am talking about.

Robert is going to have his friends at court to say what a good guy he is and what a good coach he is. That is so absurd. This man has molested at least 4 girls we know of and me personally wouldn't even want to be connected to this man in any way much less to go against these children who will have a hard enough time testifying in front of everyone without people saying how nice the man is. He couldnt have done this. Well you that will be up there better thank god it didnt happen to one of your children or I wonder if anyone talking on his behalf will even have children or girls for that matter. Anyone upholding this man is guilty of taking up for a sick child molestor.

Posted by: resident Location: wolfe county on Aug 26, 2007 at 08:48 AM
I agree completely. This man is guilty. He was arrested again a couple days ago for another child. How many will it take to make people open their eyes and see this man for what he is. A CHILD MOLESTOR. I also believe there are many more we dont know about. Why would they want to tell? Look at the first 2 families that are standing up for their children; they have been lied on, talked about and hardly anyone is standing beside them. and why? Because they dont have the name Brewer? That is stupid plain and simple. Child Molestors come in all classes from poor to rich. Robert should pay for what he has done and I hear so much about this is for money. What family would go through this for money? None. But they should receieve any and all that they can after what has happened to those girls. Those children will be ruined for life; they will never be the same. Imagine a teacher-someone you should trust and look up to.They should sue; send a message that schools need to hire better.

I think that it is a shame that our children can't go to school without being safe and secure. School is supposed to be a place for children to learn and grow. Not to be sexually abused. This affects all of the children in our community. How are they supposed to feel safe if they have knowlege of events like this taking place in thier own school. I am a victom myself of sexual abuse by someone so close to me, but for this to happen to a student by a teacher there is something wrong. Students look up to teachers, they are counting on them to help them learn and grow but how can they do that when the teacher is doing nothing but hurting them physically, mentally, and emotionally. The victoms of Robert Brewer will be scared for life. Sometimes when thing like this happens it can effect that childs whole life it can turn them into completly differen people. I know because as I said before I have been a victom. I pray for these families that are suffering and I hope that justice is served.

I believe that it doent matter that he is a good ball coach or a husband or father we are talking about two childrens lifes and maybe even more. That is why children get hurt and never reports it because they believe that adults will not believe them exspecially a teacher. Robert has been charged with sex charges therefore he is not a such a good person. I hope justice prevail.

Posted by: Erica Location: Wolfe County on Aug 20, 2007 at 11:27 PM
What's happened to the adults in Wolfe County? This is serious, children have been hurt, friends have been torn apart, trust has been lost. Wake up people this is stuff we thought would never happen here at home. People need to realize over half of Wolfe County get public assistance that dont make them a bad person, why some I am sure they would love to have the money to raise there children without the assistance. We need to listen to these two girls that are telling what has happen to them, which took alot of courage. I strongly believe that there will be more people come forward if he is found quilty that thought no one would ever believe them. I believe that Robert thought if he done this to the low income children that nothing would ever come out of it if they told on him. He didnt want boys or girls that come around him outside of school just think about it. If he is proven guilty punish him to the max and if he is not guilty leave him alone. I feel sorry for his son and wife.

Posted by: ?????? Location: wolfe county on Jul 12, 2007 at 10:58 PM
I don't really understand why this is even here or why people want to get on here and argue with each others comments but i will leave my opinion as well-First of all i feel deeply for the two children involved in this whole situation, they should never have to be put through any of this, although I personally don't think Robert is guilty of any of this, i know Robert pretty good, he was my sons basketball coach and was an excelent one-his wife is one of the best people i know and his son is a great kid who dont deserve to be put through any of this-i dont belive robert is guilty for alot of reasons but put it this way-he raised a step daughter who im sure had many friends over to stay at his home with them-if he is that kind of person, why now? why not then? why after 13 or 14 years of teaching would he decide to do this to a child now and not before-if he has done this now he would have done it before and if he had im sure someone would have came forward-thats the way i feel-Robert is not a bad person just because he drinks or just because he dont kiss mr butcher ass or because he runs a resturaunt(not a bar)that serves beer next to the school-that place served beer long before the school was there-i love robert and his family and hope the court finds the right justice for everyone involved

I was a student of his and what is being said about him is shocking i dont know what to think. but my praiers are with the childrens familys as well as his.

Posted by: TO MARVIN on Jul 2, 2007 at 06:45 PM
HOW DARE YOU SIT THERE AND SAY MY POOR BROTHER. HE IS GETTING JUST PART OF WHAT HE DESERVES AND HE IS PUTTING HIS FAMILY THROUGH THIS AND NOONE ELSE. EVERYONE KEEPS BLAMING THE ACCUSERS FOR WHAT IS HAPPENING WELL GET THE FACTS STRAIGHT THE STATE POLICE WENT TO THE SCHOOL AND INTERVIEWED ALOT OF CHILDREN AND THAT IS HOW THEY FOUND THE LITTLE GIRLS THAT WERE MOLESTED. SO YOUR WHOLE THEORY ABOUT THIS BEING ALL MADE UP JUST DOESN'T HOLD WATER. THE STATE POLICE MUST OF HAD A REASON TO INVESTIGATE YOUR BROTHER; MAYBE SOMEONE TIPPED THEM OFF BUT THEY DID AND 2 CHILDREN CAME FORWARD AND TOLD WHAT THE MAN DID TO THEM. SOUNDS PRETTY CUT AND DRY TO ME. ALOT ARE SAYING 2 FAMILES GOT TOGETHER AND DID THIS; NOT SO. POLICE DID THE INVETIGATING ALONG WITH SOCIAL WORKERS. I UNDERSTAND WANTING TO BELIEVE ONES FAMILY BUT THIS IS JUST REDICULOUS. THESE ARE 8-9 YEAR OLD CHILDREN AND I DONT THINK THEY WOULD OR EVEN COULD MAKE SOMETHING LIKE THIS UP. WE'LL ALL KNOW SOON ENOUGH. HE SHOULD GET WHAT HE DESERVES IF HE IS GUILTY. HE'S LUCKY MY CHILD ISN'T ONE OF HIS VICTIMS OR HE WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE COURTS.

Posted by: resident Location: campton on Jul 1, 2007 at 05:43 PM
Marvin I have lived in wolfe co for 34 years and this has happened in your family before maybe not your brother but a very close family member of his was known to do this and most of us that are older know about it. Maybe that is why Robert is the way he is. I dont know but it is a sad situation and makes wolfe county look bad. He should be punished to the full extent of the law no matter who he is.

Posted by: Candy Location: wolfe on Jul 1, 2007 at 02:48 PM
To Roberts Brother-From sister of accused family.-I am very sorry for what your family is going through but what do you think these children are going through and our families? First my family hasn't ever attended bloody breathitt as you call it. Our children have went right here in Wolfe co. I dont know the other victims family so I dont know much about whether they are from breathitt but she is in the 3rd grade so i dont see that child doing this before--what? in the 1st grade? People are just grasping at anything. About the news people they did say they got a tip that alot of people would be at the court house against robert but noone showed so I dont know who the tip came from but its not the 2 accusers (as you say). We are letting the justice system do their job and would do nothing to prevent that. Of course I do believe my child as do the police, doctors, and grand jury. I dont know Robert personally so no he hasn't done anything to pi*s me off until this. I didn't have a thing against the man except maybe he wasn't the best teacher.---I think he has a great wife--and family but that doesn't change or excuse what he has done. I do agree with one thing--people should have came forward and stated their concerns long ago instead of letting behavior like this continue. Anyone who knows someone that is doing this sort of thing and doesnt speak up is just as guilty!!! I will stand up for my child (and any other child) as long as it takes because something like this they never get over an it ruins their life so therefore it should also ruin the persons life that commited such a horrible act. I pray that everything will come out when this goes to trial. If you hate child molesters you need to have a open mind and listen to the facts and not heresay.

Posted by: Marvin Location: Stanton on Jun 25, 2007 at 02:18 AM
Robert is my brother and I believe he is innocent! but that doesn't matter now. He has been accused and that is all it takes. These post are prof of that. This behavoir is not a problem in our family. Getting drunk and running that mouth is. That why I don't drink. He most likely pissed somebody off. This is not the first time that little girl from bloody breathitt has cried wolf. Several of you only care about the money. Well if he loses that check he will lose that home and all you f**kers that only care about money I hopoe you loose your home. And for you that didn't see the news cast. The first thing the news caster said was the only reason they were there is that they got a tip that there was going to be a HUGE picked protest over the money. How many more lies do you need to hear. And all the lies are coming from the accuser's. I love and support my brother and I hate child molesters. For those people who say they have seen my brother do bad things and not act are lower than he. In my words you are a low piece of sh*t. If you can't stand the first time you don't have the right the second time. As far as being afraid of looseing your job (that money thing again) You could have sent a note saying watch him or was you afraid that the superintendent thaught him. Why in the hell would you want to work in a place that child molesting was ok. Maybe your a child molestor because you can't report it. I pray for the truth to come out. It will take lots of hard work to put my brothers life back together.

ROBERT BREWER NEVER TOOK A LIE DETECTOR TEST--EVER BY ANYONE INCLUDING HIS LAWYER! DONT BELIEVE ME CALL KY. STATE POLICE--MR GIBBS IS THE PRIVATE DETECTIVE. HE REFUSED TO TAKE ONE AND NEVER HAS--(NOT EVEN BY HIS LAWYER)---YOU NEED TO GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!

Posted by: Nancy Location: Lexington on Jun 9, 2007 at 09:43 AM
When I first heard about this, I was shocked! I was one of his students when I was younger. I will agree that he seems rather averse to actually doing his job...all I can remember him ever doing is joking around. however, that is neither here nor there. I do hope that a detailed investigation brings out the truth, whatever that may be.

Wow, I haven't looked at this site in a while, it is amazing the "spin" that people will use for there own satisfaction...first of all there are, alway have been, 2 counts --check Ky Dockets Online and you can verify this (no matter what the Wolfe County News says)...second, the news reported that his bond was set at $50,000 cash, and was posted, that means he is free on bond until trial, just like any of the other thousands of people on bond across Ky. (why should this case be any different ?) I agree with the (few) reasonable people who have posted....innocent until proven guilty, if he is guilty, he should be severly punshed, if he is acquitted then he should return to his normal life (or whats left of it)....---there are no "winners" in this type of case, very sad situation for ALL that are invovled.

Posted by: anonymous on Jun 1, 2007 at 03:28 PM
WELL WELL--32 COUNTS--NOW ALL OF YOU FRIENDS THAT WOULD LEAVE YOUR CHILD WITH THIS MAN AT ANYTIME---AND SAID HE WOULD NEVER BE CAPABLE OF SOMETHING LIKE THIS. ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE HAD YOUR CHILD AROUND THIS MAN---YOU REALLY SHOULD STOP AND TALK TO YOUR CHILD. ASK THEM IF HE HAS EVER TOUCHED THEM AS WELL. I KNOW I WOULD. THIS MAN SHOULD BE IN JAIL AND NOT FREE. THIS IS A OUTRAGE AND I APPLAUD THESE 2 MOTHERS THAT BROUGHT IT OUT IN THE FIRST PLACE. THEY HAVE PROBABLY SAVED ALOT OF CHILDREN; SOME THAT COULD HAVE BEEN YOURS. I HOPE THEY SUE THE SCHOOL BOARD. A MAN LIKE THIS DOESN'T BELONG IN THE SCHOOL SYSTEM!!!!!!!!! WE NEED TO ALL STAND TOGETHER AND MAKE SURE JUSTICE IS SERVED FOR THESE CHILDREN. AND ANYMORE VICTIMS OR ONES THAT KNOW SOMETHING NEED TO REPORT IT NOW.

Apparently the constitution doesn't mean much to some people, but a person is innocent until proven guilty. If he is guilty it is one thing to make an example of him, if he is not that is another. Maybe you ought to let the judicial system determine guilt.

Posted by: Anonymous Location: Wolfe on Jun 1, 2007 at 11:53 AM
In the Wolfe Co.News as of today 6/1/07 was published as being 32 counts of sexual abuse in the indictment from the grand Jury as a concern citizen of wolfe co. its a shame that our judical system would allow such a person accused with a horrible act be released and walk the streets as if nothings wrong but it is wrong and us as a united people should stand together and protect our children from the evil of our schools even if it means to make an example with Mr. Brewer!!!

Posted by: another resident on Jun 1, 2007 at 10:44 AM
Again, whether or not he was drunk the day before he would need to be in the classroom is not what the case is about. If you live here you know there's many in the school system with bad judgment. It doesn't seem any level of the system is unaffected. Drugs, drunks, homewreckers, cheaters, and thiefs we seem to have them all. At this point I have to think the mothers did what they thought was best. Its up to the court system to see if they agree.

Posted by: resident Location: wolfe on May 31, 2007 at 08:09 PM
I agree hearing something doesnt make it a fact. Facts are at this time just this--Robert Brewer indicted on 2 charges of sexual misconduct with a child under age of 12. and 2 counts of abuse. The state police did a investigation lasting over a month or so--they believe he is guilty and built a case. presented to grand jury of people in campton. They also believe there is enough sufficient evidence to convict Robert Brewer of the charges against him. Those are all the facts we know; rest is all heresay. We can all have our personal opinions and thoughts but the courts will decide and they are what will matter. This is a terrible situation for everyone. It does look very bad on the school and the school board I feel that someone that so many people have a problem with should even be allowed to be a teacher in the first place. Personally I dont care for him--I have seen him blasted drunk knowing he has to teach the very next morning! A teacher should know better none the less. I am truely sorry for the kids, and I have thought about it, and i would have done the same thing their mothers did. I mean what if your child tells you that? what would you do? no matter who it is, you would have done the same thing. And these mothers are also going through alot of criticism from everyone, just because they think they know someone. You never really know anyone.

Posted by: resident2 Location: campton on May 31, 2007 at 02:00 PM
He was not fired from Dessie Scott. In case you don't know the school there was operated by the same school board that still employees him. THe more I hear, the more it seems there are a lot of unfounded stories out there. Saying something doesn't make it fact and that applies to adults as well as children.

Posted by: unknown Location: wolfe on May 31, 2007 at 11:30 AM
you obviously dont know the mothers! because there are 2 and not 1! and you are saying you know the MOTHER! not mothers. plural! more than one! get the facts!

Posted by: resident Location: campton on May 31, 2007 at 08:16 AM
That former employee should step forward now-She is not the first one I've heard since this came out saying they saw signs. A 39 year old man doesn't need to be flirty with little 3rd grade children. Wasn't he fired from dessi scott childrens home? HMMMMM The more you hear; the more you have to wonder--there must be truth to this which is so sad for the little girls.

Posted by: secret Location: wolfe county on May 30, 2007 at 11:04 AM
first of all i think people need to take a step back and realize that the school system is not the ones making the accusations and that they did NOT set robert brewer up. i have worked with robert and know him from his restaraunt and from where we previously worked together. i do know that from working with him he is not the most professional person i know, and in someones comments they talked about him being upstanding and a bunch of other stuff, that he is not. I would not want him teaching my child for the simple fact that he does not teach and he laughs because they could not fire him for this because he is tenured. have any of you that are his friends and family realized that yes maybe the school system did want rid of him because he DID NOT do his job but they would never go to this length (framing him) to get rid of him. the drug testing policy would do that. i do not know if he is guilty or innocent, that is not for me to judge, i do not know what the investigation has turned up. i also do not know the families of the students. at first i myself could not believe that robert brewer could do this. it just disgusted me to think that he could. but the more i think about it the more i realize that you never seem to know the ones you think you do. all kinds of people have skeletons in their closet. people need to think about what they would do if their child told them that someone had hurt them even if it is someone you think you know or you think you can trust. i am not taking sides, my point is that people need to look at it as a whole not whether you do or don't like robert brewer or the accusers. unless you are in the court room when all evidence and testimony is given, you do not know what the truth is.

I wonder if the former co-worker reported anything about what she supposedly viewed. I bet not. No doubt she wanted to "keep her job". Charges do not mean guilt and as far as his wife (who has a name for being an excellent teacher) she now seems to be under a microscope for supporting her husband and family in this trying time. If the comments on this site are an example of the sort who will be selected for a jury pool, a definite change of venue is needed.

YES I DO KNOW THE FAMILY OF THE LITTLE GIRL AND THAT IS WHY I DID SAY WHAT I SAID!! THANK YOU! No I would not accuse a mother of lying but in this case the truth will come out, second time to pull this stunt, yes I believe that is the word. That remark was not meant for the majority of the mothers out there but I know of a couple from Wolfe Co. who have pulled this trick in order to try and get revenge on someone. Sadly it happens. I apologize to anyone I may have offened, however I will not apogolize to the mother of the child, she sould have stopped and thought about what she was doing to the child. Was there not a teacher's aide assigned to this classroom? I believe so, intresting how this could happen with another adult present!!! Refused the polygraph, was under the impression he took it and passed!

IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT THEY MAY WANT TO KEEP HIM LOCKED UP FOR HIS SAFTY OR SOMEONE MAY GET TO HIM FIRST WOW...

Posted by: Former Wolfe Countian Location: Thank God on May 29, 2007 at 04:03 AM
He refused a polygraph? Hmmm....that is questionable but polygraphs are not admissable in court whether he had taken it and passed or failed. People: You are entitled to you opinions but the actual decision of whether he is guilty or innocent will come out in the courts. Personally I hope, as some folks have said, that he was not set up as it will come out if he was but he will still be guilty in the court of public opinion. Can we not support right or wrong? If he is guilty the evidence will prove it and he will pay the price but if he is not then the evidence will prove that as well especially if he has been set up. My question is this...Will you guys support the fact that Robert was set up or falsely accused if that happens to be the case? Probably not!, most would be saying "glad it was not me." By the way, Yes, I know Robert and went to school with him. If he has done this and is found guilty then he should burn and I'd be the first to tell him but there are other possibilities here. If KSP is investigating, as some folks have said, then they will get to the bottom of the whole ordeal. I lived in Campton and know of the small town politics and "good old boy" system that is strong there. Heck that is why I left as most folks do. Strange things happen in Campton and stranger things have happened as far as folks being set up. Again, if Robert did this then I would gladly be the one that took him to Lagrange and put him in a cell for all the years that he should get. I for one though will watch and see what happens and keep an open mind to all of the entire case as I lived there and am well aware of what can happen if you make the wrong person mad. Folks in this and WKYT's thread have spoken about prayer. Prayer is good, I will pray for the whole town and that someone finally wakes up and goes into Campton and legally clean out "the good old boys."

Most predators and very well liked in their communities and are the ones that noone would expect. How do you think they get away with it?? Because noone will believe they could do such a thing. Just think of all the preachers, teachers, in the past. All very well liked in their communities just like this man! Someone has to stand up for the children. I dont care who you are children come first----they are the victims not the man that ruined their lives.

IT OUTRAGES ME THAT YOU WOULD SAY ANY OF THAT. YOU DONT EVEN KNOW THE WHOLE STORY. HE IS GUILTY, AND EVERYONE WILL SOON FIND OUT! NO-ONE SHOULD FEEL SORRY FOR MR.BREWER..YOU SHOULD FOR HIS WIFE AND SON. BUT HE IS GUILTY. GET OVER THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW HIM, AND STOP SAYING ITS FOR MONEY..BULLCRAP!

If he's such a wonderful person, looks like all you anonymous people would be proud to let him and other Wolfe Countians know who his supporters are. Looks like this "good old boy" is gonna need a trial somewhere else. Maybe in "Bloody Breathitt"

Posted by: Former Wolfe County Resident Location: KY on May 28, 2007 at 01:38 AM
Well my first comments were not approved. I thought they were nice but I guess not. Heck, they were much nicer than most in this thread. First of all: Remember folks an indictment is one side of the story and Robert is innocent until proven guity. I have known this man all my life and find it hard to believe that Robert would do anything like this let alone even think about it. Second: Campton is a very political little town that is the poster child for the "good old boy system." It has been mentioned in other comments that Robert is being set up and this is a possibility. Having lived there one knows the "crazy happenings" of the "good old boys." Take a look at Campton...Why do you think it is the 19th century town that it is with no development or changes in years. The "good old boys" don't want it that way. Last: If Robert is innocent or guity it will come out. I'd get a change of venue for the trial as if he has made the wrong person mad he will not receive a fair trial in Campton. And yes, what about the other students in the class...I am sure that they heard or saw something. If Robert is guilty then he should pay the price but if this is a frame job by the "good old boys" then it should come out and they should be the ones that pay the price to Robert.

Would everyone in favor of hanging, dismemberment, and stoning please take a moment and concentrate: Rub your two remaining brain cells together and try to grasp the concept of "innocent until proven guilty". I know, it's tough (finding the brain cells to do this).

Let me make a statement, "IF YOU DO NOT LIVE IN WOLFE COUNTY, YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT GOES ON HERE." There are many things here that our Superintendant wouldn't want to come out. When the new elementary school was built, students raised money for NEW play ground equipment. Instead of getting new equipment they got the equipment from the old school and the money went some where else. There have been many issues with teachers who aren't on the same page or the same political side as the superintendent. Demotions, replacement of teachers, but this is the worst that I have seen. If a lot of you knew the situation you would understand. This is an inside job to set Robert up to loose his job. The superintendent and the principal at the school where Robert works have made it clear that they will do anything to get rid of him. As far as his business selling alcohol close to the school. That is a restaurant and it was there long before that school was ever built. As a former employee of his....my children have been around him many times and my daughter adores him. He may be many things, but he's not what he has been accused of. Another thing, tell me how you could sexually abuse a child in the back of a classroom with 15 or 20 other students in the same room? And who are at an age where they would notice something? We arent talking about 2 and 3 year olds. Children will do and say many things to get what they want. If you was a child and was promised something that you really wanted wouldn't you do or say what you were told in order to get it. Even though he is not capable of this, these accusations have destroyed his reputation. Not only him, but his wife and child all have to suffer from the accusations that has been conjured up. I pray for Robert and his family. As for everyting else....THE TRUTH WILL PREVAIL!!!! And when it does our school system and our superintendant are going to have a lot of skeletons coming out of the closet

Personally, even though I am taking time out of my day to read this garbage, I think that being able to post some of these horrible things on the internet for everyone to openly see is appaling. The most important thing that people should be thinking about and doing with their extra time is praying for Robert and his family for being subjected to all of this. Any one that knows him, can say that he would not do something like this, despite owning a bar, and if his wife thought for one second that he was guilty, she would divorce him, no doubt about it. She is a Christian woman that always puts any child's best interest first. I just think that until you have heard all of the evidence and have looked at the homelife of these children, you have no right to pass horrible judgment that not only will affect Robert, in more ways than one, but his wife and son as well. God bless everyone that is involved, even the little girls that have no idea about the seriousness of these accusations.

Oh No, Unknown from Wolfe County--you are guilty until proven innocent! Anyway, his life is ruined, guilty or not. I hope he is innocent because that should not happen to any child, whatever the grade or age. I deeply symphasize with his wife and son, I hope they can survive this. I hope for justice. If he is found to be innocent, then I hope there will be something happen to the accusers mothers.

Posted by: Delia Location: campton on May 26, 2007 at 01:16 PM
The Wolfe County Board of Education needs to look at the ethics of many of their teachers! Adulters,drunks,drug users seem to be common and go without punishment. Of course one board member is a convicted shoplifter! So much for moral standards

Robert Brewer refused to take a lie detector test---He was offered one and he refused. hhmmmm--wonder why?

Posted by: Anonymous on May 26, 2007 at 01:02 PM
Why should this man be getting paid? That is just not right. If found guilty I think he should have to pay back all the money he is getting. Why do so many comments say people are just trying to get money? Where and how does this involve money? State Police did a investigation and found 2 students abused in his class this year. How many more are out there from years prior? This man should never have been allowed to teach. Think about it; how many victims will there be when this case goes to trial. Also there must be some evidence or a man of his stature would never have been indited.

Posted by: SUSAN Location: LOUISVILLE KY on May 26, 2007 at 12:41 PM
It never seems to amaze me to see how (stupid) people can be. Yes, I know how corrupt the school system and law enforcement are in Wolfe Co. That gives people no right to set behind a computer screen and go on about Robert or his family. Thats the problems with SO MANY OF THE PEOPLE IN THAT AREA. You have nothing better to do with your time than to set back and judge someone else, when you need to be steping back and taking a good look at yourself. Get off your butt's and drugs and get a job. If he is guilty than he deserves punished, if he's not than he deserved the chance to prove it.

Posted by: A person Location: North America on May 26, 2007 at 09:47 AM
People assume accusation equals guilt. As you can see, these are charges that stick, even if they are found to be untrue. People don’t forget, not when you are talking about the safety of their child. This guy’s teaching career is over. No school is going to chance this kind of press in the future. It is bad for everyone and parents start to really look at what is happening in school… schools don’t really like that. So, he will never teach again even if these actions never even crossed his mind. There will always be those who doubt his innocence. What I do know for sure is that you can’t tell what another person is or is not capable of doing in their private times. Do you know what sexual practices your neighbor engages in? Would you bet your future on that knowledge? You don’t know, and you can’t know because this is not the kind of information that people share with their friends and neighbors. No matter how innocent or guilty you want to believe someone is, you can’t know for sure unless you were with that person during the time it was supposed to have happened, or if you witnessed the act as it was taking place. This is a bad situation that will scar everyone involved no matter how it turns out. I am not God, and do not know where the truth is here, so I will pray for everyone involved and hope that the truth is found and people are treated appropriately and get whatever help they may need.

If this person is guilty then they should be punished accordingly, but, he has not been found guilty yet, let the court's do there work and get the facts ! I had a friend in Tennessee years ago who was accused of a simmilar crime by his daughter; my friend and his wife were going through a divorce and she had told the girl that she had to say things about him or he would get cutsody and she would never see her mother again,,,before trial, the little girl recanted (told the prosecutor that her mother made her tell the story) and the charges were dropped ! I trust in the court system and the accusation that he will get out of this becuase of who he is or who is friends are doesn't hold water, if that were the case why was he indcited in the first place ?

Posted by: Anonymous Location: Jackson on May 26, 2007 at 08:01 AM
Has anyone looked into the accusers past. It has been stated that she attempted to have a teacher in Breathitt County prosecuted for the same type of activity but it was dissmissed. Does it make more sense that now two teachers have abused the same child or perhaps the parent has other motivations.

Posted by: Anonymous Location: Texas on May 26, 2007 at 02:24 AM
The article said there were other children who witnessed the abuse. However, I do believe this teacher needs to have a trial by a jury of his peers not the media. As a fellow elementary teacher myself, I know there is always a risk of being falsely accused of abusing a child. It is important to take precautions. First and most, try to never be alone with a child. If for some reason you do need to meet with a child alone, keep your classroom door wide open. Never initiate any type of physical contact. Don’t pick children up and NEVER have them sit in your lap no matter how innocent it may be. If a child tries to hug me, I always turn my body to the side, so there is no frontal body contact at all.

Posted by: Kimberly Location: Pikeville on May 26, 2007 at 01:53 AM
Nobody knows the truth about what happened..And if your children would come home and say Mr. Brewer Messed with me then it would be a different story..So leave it at that!

Posted by: Brenda Location: Wolfe Co. on May 25, 2007 at 11:34 PM
Rumors have been flying around the county for months about this, why weren't the parents of all students notified that a possible child molester had been entrusted with the care of their children? All you people who believe in his innocence, why can't your post your name? I vote for a change of venue, he needs to be tried in another county, maybe "Bloody Breathitt"

Posted by: Angry Location: Wolfe County Native on May 25, 2007 at 11:00 PM
I would like to say that I am so sorry for what is happening to Mr. Brewer and his family. They need to know that no one in their right mind believes these accusations. I can't believe that the district would do this to a teacher that they have praised for years and that has served so faithfully. I left Wolfe County years ago because of their political agenda's. Their school district is nothing but good ole boy politics and does not care about the children. They are more worried about money than the welfare of the kids. The state really needed to come in and take a look at this county years ago. Maybe now they will.

Posted by: Observer From Campton Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 10:54 PM
First of all it is a resturant, not a BAR! Second, how can you people judge and not know the full story, good or bad? Third, I am sure Robert is not the only school employee who behavior outside of the school should be questioned, however that does not make him a bad person or guilty. If it did we would not have any teacher's or school official's in Wolfe Co. Robert's business was there before the school was ever built, how can anyone in good faith use that against him. Anytime something like happens it is terrible for everyone, however I strongly feel the child's mother should have thought about the child before she decide to claim her 15 minutes of fame and be broadcasted on ever local TV station, the child should not have to go through such embrassment, the mother should have been more concerned with the child's well fair, instead of being on tv. If she cared about her child then focus on her and not all the negative aattention. Her being on TV is only proof that she is after the attention and benefits from this. To think what that child will have to go thru because her mother announced this on TV. One last thing, you people are so quick to judge Robert on his behavior, but do you people really know this women? I guess not, or no one would be having this conversation! I am not related or linked to either side but a mere observer from the outside, No names or connections will set Robert free, this women will hang her self in her lies and time will prove it. This charge is all attention and MONEY!

I can't believe this situation. The cornbread mafia strikes again. How many times are the teachers in Wolfe County going to be set up and blamed for things that they haven't done. Maybe the SATE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION should go into Wolfe County and take a look at their school board members and superintendent. It seems that they can do no wrong despite the number of law suits that are now pending against them. Someone please help the good teachers of this county and students they try so hard to educate. Everyone close to this situation knows that Mr. Brewer did not do what he is accused of doing. He is not the only teacher that has suffered because of accusations from the political antics of the county.

Posted by: Concerned Location: Dry Ridge on May 25, 2007 at 10:35 PM
This is a bunch of (edited)! Everyone knows he has been set up. I can't believe they are allowing this to happen to a local teacher.

If you were'nt there, then you don't know what happened no matter how well you know this guy. There's been married couples find out something like this about their spouse, etc. Look at the B.T.K. Killer. No one who knew him in his church

Posted by: Sondra Location: Lexington on May 25, 2007 at 09:40 PM
well it took the local officals to take him into custody long enough to do the job they are getting paid to do. It doesn't matter to me who this guy is, if this happened to anyone else besides this man, we all know action would've been taken alot sooner.Now I guess we will all sit back and wait to see what the outcome reveals, even in a very small town where everyone knows everyone,just goes to show this happens every where...how sad!

Posted by: Teacher Location: KY on May 25, 2007 at 09:35 PM
1. I would like to say that I have been in the school system as a teacher for several years. Not all teachers are bad. It is not fair to make a comment that says that teachers are not to be trusted. 2. I do not know this man and I do not know the families but people need to realize that it is the minority of teachers that do bad things. Do you ever here a teacher being praised for good things. No you only hear the bad things. 3. Do not be quick to judge all teachers by one or two bad apples. As of right you are innocent until proven guilty.

Posted by: kk Location: kentucky on May 25, 2007 at 08:30 PM
Yes indeed this man may be innocent, many good people are tried for crimes they did not committ. Many people who are thought to be good and upstanding people that you would never dream of doing such crimes are the very ones who do. who knows but him and those children if he is guilty?? sometimes we do not know people as well as we think we do. As a parent if your child tells you something you should take it seriously, please don't brush it off. It should always be checked into so many abusive people are able to make their victems seem as liers after all there only children....children will occasionally fib but a bigger part of the time they say it as they see it. The main thing is if your child has the nerve to tell you something like this please at least listen to them. you may be their only way out.

Posted by: brenda Location: corbin on May 25, 2007 at 07:19 PM
this thing we call a man for lack of a better word will most likely get by with a slap on the wrist. most teachers can do whatever they want...remember the one that "forgot" her 2 kids in the car while she taught class.

what good does it do to suspend this this whatever with pay....hurt his pocketbook like he huirt thosekids!

Posted by: Unknown Location: Kentucky on May 25, 2007 at 06:19 PM
If a parent recieves government assistance, does that make it acceptable for a teacher to mishandle the power and trust bestowed upon them in such a way as Mr. Brewer is being accused? I think NOT. Welfare dead beats or millionares...The fact remains, a man may have abused innocent children. And regardless, the children are innocent. The choices of their parents or teachers are not their responsibilities.

Posted by: Wolfe Native Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 05:50 PM
I have known Mr. Brewer for a long time and there is not a chance he is guilty. Being from Wolfe County and knowing the situation, I believe he is being set up, by who, I don't know. The people accussing him of this horrible crime are welfare dead beats that want some attention and probably some money. They are probably being paid to say these dirty comments about Mr. Brewer. Knowing the school system he works in, they are probably involved somehow. They just don't care about the kids like they should. I have three children in their school system, and I worry that they are not getting the education they deserve because our school system is more worried about stuffing their pockets. I hope and pray that Mr. Brewer is not being set up. All I know for sure is that he is not the type of man that would sexually abuse a child.

Posted by: unknown Location: Wolfe Co. on May 25, 2007 at 05:35 PM
You are guilty until proven innocent. I know Robert and he should have never been allowed to be a teacher at any school. He does not set a role example for any child in the community. He owns a bar within distance of the school and parties with teenagers. He cheats on his wife and tells lies on everyone. Why would anyone believe what he has to say? These children are innocent and have been corrupted by an adult.

Posted by: Wolfe Co. Boy Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 05:21 PM
This is a very nasty, ugly situation for Mr. Brewer, his family, friends, school, and our county. It's good to see that some people have the common sense to realize that he is innocent until proven guilty, but some of you uneducated big mouths don't understand that statement. You also don't understand the whole situation because you don't live here in Wolfe County (you don't know what goes on here in our little county), or you do live here and just want to convict him because of his reputation. I have known Mr. Brewer for years and I honestly believe he is innocent. There is no way he sexually abused those children... No Way !!!!!!!!!

Posted by: Unknown Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 05:06 PM
I am not sure what the person writing aboout the little girl's families meant, but regardless of the family these little girls need protection . I don't know if Robert is guilty or not and the people defending him do not know either. Let the courts handle it. We always want to think that our neighbors and friends wouldn't do this kind of thing but we don't really know. We do know it happens everyday. We have a responsibility as a society to persue the charges and find out. If he is found guilty , he will have to pay the consequences. I have faith in the Wolfe County Judge and jury. They will make the right decision.

Posted by: Anonymous Location: campton on May 25, 2007 at 05:04 PM
I am totally confident of Mr. Brewers innocence. Yes, this is a time where many weird things happen nationwide. Just as school shootings have copycats....this type of thing does to. I work closely with Mr. Brewer and am convinced of his innocence. He has passed a lie detector test that his lawyers have given him. I think I can speak of all teachers in that we are all afraid of allegations that can arise at any moment. Mr. Brewers friendships or last name will be of no help in the court system. The fact that he is innocent and a lie detector test shows that he is telling the truth will be the determing factor. I know they are not submissive in court...but facts are and in end the truth will come out...NOT GUILTY. God bless him and his family

I am a female and I had Mr. Brewer in class. He was a very caring teacher and I, for one, would not believe these accusatioins. Probably someone wanting to get some insurance money.

Posted by: MAR Location: Mount Sterling on May 25, 2007 at 04:37 PM
Indicted/Convicted, whatever??? Guilty or not, the suspicion is now there with apparently some evidence indicating such. Guilty or not, I would not want him accessible to any and all children right now.

Posted by: Former Co-Worker Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 04:36 PM
Truthfully, I do not find this news one bit shocking. I worked with Robert Brewer several years ago in a capacity that involved me sitting in on his classes daily and before that observing his one on one sessions with students. He never did anything tangible, nothing solid that could be taken to officials (possibly because he was never allowed alone with students), but his interaction with his female students, his glances, his flirtations were unnerving. I would never have been comfortable leaving a child with Mr. Brewer. I myself was never comfortable in a room alone with Mr. Brewer, and was careful not to put myself in that position. I do believe in innocence until guilt is proven. But I also believe in supporting victims

Posted by: Unknown Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 03:13 PM
Most of these comments make me sick. It is amazing to me how people can make such horrible accusations when they have no idea what they are talking about. How dare someone pass judgment on another human being based on an allegation and an indictment. This is exactly why we have trials, to filter through the false accusations. I encourage everyone to stop throwing out their heated opinions and let the legal system work it out. All this bantering does is make the situation worse for the families of those involved. No one is automatically guilty because of an indictment, and they should not be treated as though they are.

Posted by: Unknown Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 02:29 PM
I have known Mr. Brewer since I was a child in his class. At the ages of 9 and 10, I spent several nights at the home in which he lived. He never approached me as a young female, and now as an adult I find these accusations to be insane! I have always felt safe with him, still to this day. As I said, when I was a young girl I slept in the same home on several nights and was safe. I don't believe any of these charges.

Posted by: Former employee Location: Campton KY on May 25, 2007 at 02:25 PM
I used to be an employee of Robert's, which is a resturant, that does have license to sell alcohol, that was in fact owned and operated before the school was built. However I know him personally and professionally he is not the type of monster to do this. I am proud of his wife for standing beside him she should he is innocent. Her and his son is the one suffering and will continue to as well, even if he is proven not guilty he is now stereotyped and will be judged by all from now on. I also don't feel that his friendships with anyone will play a factor in his case. And as far as his last name come on Robert has what he has because he worked for it and got it honest his family never gave him a hand out. I do hope he gets his position back and the parents who does not want him to teach their children it's their loss. I hope that who ever is responsible for the acusations is charged with slander. To his family be strong and stand tall beside him is where you need to be helping him prove his innocence.

Posted by: unknown Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 02:12 PM
Let's not ove react . Robert does have the opportunity to face a jury trial. However, I am glad the grand jury has stood up and said "kids need to be heard". I am confident that the Superintendent and Board will support the jury decision and do what is right.

Posted by: mel Location: lex on May 25, 2007 at 01:51 PM
Don't forget that when dealing with the testimony of children, they have really vivid imaginations and are often quick to agree when prompted. These are 8 year olds, we've probably still convinced them there's a Santa Clause; what else can they be persuaded to say if led a little?

Posted by: Bill Location: WV on May 25, 2007 at 01:21 PM
SO what your saying is put him in jail and make him serve although he hasn't been tried or found guilty? Ok this makes some sense and I can see how this could be founded... After all we'd rather see a hanging than a hearing... NO I don't agree with child endangerment but after all Mr. Brewer has only been "charged" with allagations at this point if you would like to give him a fair trial and let the courts decide then we can delegate a punishment but surely someone as educated as you fine people believe in our judicial system after all lets let God decide his fate

Posted by: Amy Location: Campton KY on May 25, 2007 at 12:33 PM
Who has the right to sit behind the computer screen and judge someone, none of you are god and shouldn't pass judgement until he is proven guilty. To the unknown writer if you are so concerned about your child speak up and be heard don't hide your idenity and speak out for your child if you really do have concerns. Or is everyone being to quick and passing judgement before the whole truth is spoken? Keep in mind everyone is innocent until proven guilty!

Posted by: jro Location: fleming Co on May 25, 2007 at 12:30 PM
Yes, if he did this, he should be hanged. . but everything isn't always black and white -let the court system work - let all parties involved tell their story - anyone can accuse someone of anything. . . however, I don't agree that he should still be getting paid. .

Posted by: Anonymous Location: Wolfe County on May 25, 2007 at 12:14 PM
Unless I misread the article - Brewer has been indicted -- NOT found guilty. Before we go jumping to conclusions, we need to know all of the facts. The reason he is being suspended with pay is because he has not been proved guilty yet.

Posted by: Anonymous on May 25, 2007 at 12:02 PM
I agree that parents should have definately been notified. What is going on these days with teachers? It seems as though you can't trust anyone with your kids. Not even the ones they are suppose to trust themselves.

What has happened to innocent until proven guilty?? A person can be indicted with little evidence of guilt. How many cases have we seen go to trial and then be dismissed due to lack of evidence or the defendant being found not guilty. I have known Mr. Brewer for many years and I find these accusations hard to believe.

Posted by: Michelle Location: KY on May 25, 2007 at 11:32 AM
I hear that these charges are false and are politcally motivated due to the fact that Mr. Brewer did not agree with the superintendent's abuse of power at the board of education. Mr. Brewer has had no history of any kind of abuse in his many years of teaching; it is more than coincidence that these allegations would surface now.

Posted by: Anonymous Location: Campton on May 25, 2007 at 11:31 AM
This is a terrible tragedy for the children and everyone involved. Just because a person is indicted dosen't make him gulity. Mr. Brewer has a family and this is a terrible time for everyone.

My child will never be in his classroom, even if I have to home school. This man will never spend any jail time, or be fired. This teacher is friends with county attorney, and other court offical. He will be back teaching in Fall. Mark my words. Parents, don't allow your child in his class, or his wife's class, she is upholding him, or she would be divorcing him.

Unfortunately, politics mean a lot in small counties such as Wolfe County. Mr. Brewer's last name alone will most likely keep him out of jail. What outsiders do not know is that Mr. Brewer owns and operates a BAR within seeing distance of the school in which the incident occured. Hmmm....
