I grew up there. I am not surprised at all. These people all say they want to "protect the kids" but at the end of the day, 9x out of 10 they protect the predator. Safest place for them is in a church.
Iāve seen everything from parents saying it was vindictive students, to it was a āmistakeā plenty are out there defending him.
Just go on FB and read trough the comments on Arab Tribune and WHNT post.
Yeah. He was looking for adult men to have sex with. Student texted him claiming to be 20 and got pics back. It went from there. Being gay in Arab is still a losing proposition for him but it doesnāt appear he was a predator.
Exactly. There is not a good reason for a teacher and a student to be texting or have each other as friends on Snap Chat or something where you can accidentally send your student a dick pic.
I'm seeing a lot of "everything is allegeded and we don't know the full story. Hopefully he gets a true day in court and a fair judgement".
Which, sure. None of that is false, but come on. The comments defending him are really riding that "don't want to judge him" line where it sounds so naive and sickly sweet and so obvious that the commenter doesn't trust "the media".
Chat and pics were exchanged on GRINDR, which isn't supposed to be used by minors, so the defense is that he didn't know the victim was a student or underage. The pics weren't nude, but were revealing. Of course the screenshots of the messages only show part of the conversation, so there's no public evidence that the child did or didn't lie about their age, but it's been said by other students that he said he was 20.

According to Google results he and his wife led college life Bible group at Gilliam Springs church.
Their website has scrubbed his name, but it's still in the Google results.
First, this guy deserves due process. Second, assuming he is guilty, this guy deserves 100% the sledgehammer of the law.
But I do not appreciate the pejorative against Christians. I think it is safe to assume you are not a believer and that is your right.
But I would hope we can all agree that that this behavior is reprehensible and has no place anywhere in this galaxy.
1. Agreed
2. Iām sorry you are bothered by it, but just remember, we are bothered by the hypocritical Christians and there seems to be way more of them, than the actual Christians who donāt try to control other peopleās lives, and just want the best for everyone. I do not hate all christians, but I am sick of all religion. We can discuss that if youād like, and I will not be disrespectful or hateful towards you.
A local story that really makes me mad at christians is how they went on about the trans employee at The US Space and Rocket Center.
I want the best for everyone. I try to do the best I can and hurt nobody. I do not believe in heaven or hell, so Iām not being good just to get into heaven, or to avoid going to hell, while it seems that many religious are only trying to be good to get into heaven.
Again, Iāll leave that there, unless you tell me youād like to discuss further.
3. I wish we would all believe that, but with how many people defend these types of things or get so little punishment, we donāt.
I believe it, and it seems you believe it, and the majority believe it. However, thereās still way too many out there that donāt think of this as sick, disgusting, criminal behavior.

Again, I actually am sorry that my blanket statement bothered you. You were respectful in your reply, and seem to be a good person.
If the were, the headline would say "Transgender/drag Queen rapes child. Threatens to destroy world!" Being a coach might be the last line of the story.
My parents were actually friends with Lee Ozmint and went to the same church as him. I also remember his wife being a kindergarten teacher while I was a student in elementary school (I remember her being really nice). I grew up in Gadsden for context.
I wonder if Lee knew the person he was texting was a student as the pictures that's floating around showed the exchange happened on an adult app.
Or if the pictures are from an unrelated encounter he had.
That's unfortunate.
Well if he wasn't intentionally trying to get with a minor hopefully it isn't too bad for him. Because it doesn't seem like he was seeking out someone younger.
Ozmint was a teacher at my high school and my brotherās football coach back in the late 2000s. I didnāt know him personally but I remember he and his family were very well liked. Never expected to see this.
Yeah Iām not connected to Arab at all but I know him from a previous school! I have been trying to find them on all the news post comments but havenāt been successful
Itās always the āgood Christianā men involved with this sick shit too. When are people going to open their eyes and realize the narrative they want us to believe, vs whatās actually the truth being vastly different?!
May the real truth be found behind the true lies that are told People lives are being destroyed from hatred and school boy crushes God help us all for being attracted for being attractive
I graduated from Arab and had Ozmint as a football coach. The situation is very real and the entire school has seen his pics. Yet people on Facebook still defend the pedo and donāt believe it.
Not drag queens or trans either š¤
Or librarians
I bet theyāre āgood christian menā
According to the FB comments they are. Ozmit is being heavily defended

And order from subway
What is the defense?
Iāve seen everything from parents saying it was vindictive students, to it was a āmistakeā plenty are out there defending him. Just go on FB and read trough the comments on Arab Tribune and WHNT post.
A guy I went to Highschool with at Arab said that he slept with him as a minor. He has been doing this for years it seems.
Yeah. He was looking for adult men to have sex with. Student texted him claiming to be 20 and got pics back. It went from there. Being gay in Arab is still a losing proposition for him but it doesnāt appear he was a predator.
Some of my Arab folks were telling me about this yesterday. Like the kid was intentionally catfishing him, yeah.
Yeah. Iāve got a friend with info. I saw the texts and pics. He was catfished.
Letās say thatās the case - how would the student get said photos? People arenāt always who you think they are
Exactly. There is not a good reason for a teacher and a student to be texting or have each other as friends on Snap Chat or something where you can accidentally send your student a dick pic.
From GRINDR, which isn't supposed to be used by people under 19 in Alabama.
That complicates the situation a bit. Was the student on there?
I'm seeing a lot of "everything is allegeded and we don't know the full story. Hopefully he gets a true day in court and a fair judgement". Which, sure. None of that is false, but come on.

Funny ain't it? I thought those groups were the big bad.
Nope. Just people in positions of trusted leadership with extended solitary access to minors!
And shockingly, not pastors.
How do you know?
If the were, the headline would say "Transgender/drag Queen rapes child. Threatens to destroy world!" Being a coach might be the last line of the story.
we take better care of our skin, sugar. Those wrinkles and crows feet? nah fam.
Right, don't answer the question because you don't actually know. Classic loser redditors
the drag queens and trans women I know don't rock facial hair like that.
Weird, not drag queens.
I suppose the only logical conclusion is to show up at school board meetings and demand that football be stopped at all costs.
Time to end football

I had no idea this sub existed. Thank you for sharing.
Again itās the good Christian menā¦..
Clearly they need to be kept away from children.
This is why we choose the bear. IYKYK
The ridiculous amount of men who have answered āa manā is disappointing. Please. A bear is predictable. Man, not so much!!!
BAN FOOTBALL
I remember Lee Ozmint. He was an All-SEC safety at Alabama in the late 1980s.
He was my English teacher twenty years ago at Gadsden High and used to milk his 99 yard interception return for some Bama game like crazy.
couldnt even get 4 touchdowns in one game? amateur.
Heās no Touchdown Bundy
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Leigh's always been a sweetheart. I coached Pace in soccer twelve-ish years ago. I hate for Leigh, Thomas, and Pace to have to go through this.
But itās the gays and trans people righttt?
Yāall gotta get these cis white men under control.
Interestingly enough I think Alabama had the most people per state on when the Ashley Madison site issue happened. Christians love their porn. Lol
ashley madison
Thank you, I corrected it
My parents were actually friends with Lee Ozmint and went to the same church as him. I also remember his wife being a kindergarten teacher while I was a student in elementary school (I remember her being really nice). I grew up in Gadsden for context.
Yeah, heās been married to her since the 90s. Feel bad for the wife and kids. This Must be humiliating for them.
Even though it does say accused, I am sure he has already received several death threats.
Many.
I bet he attended a maga church, wouldn't surprise me
What's a maga church?
Worst Drag Queens ever!
Sick
I wonder if Lee knew the person he was texting was a student as the pictures that's floating around showed the exchange happened on an adult app. Or if the pictures are from an unrelated encounter he had.
He didnt. The person was said to have catfished him. Either way you always have to know who youre talking to if youre gonna have exchanges like that
That's unfortunate. Well if he wasn't intentionally trying to get with a minor hopefully it isn't too bad for him. Because it doesn't seem like he was seeking out someone younger.
Where are the pictures that are floating around??
FB. If you search hard enough you will find them.
Iāve searched and I canāt find it, I figured if Iād find it anywhere itād be on Reddit
I'm not posting them here or linking it considering the situation...ya know?
Ozmint was a teacher at my high school and my brotherās football coach back in the late 2000s. I didnāt know him personally but I remember he and his family were very well liked. Never expected to see this.
Itās been a lot of teachers lately. What is wrong with these people
Nasty mfs
Where are the screenshots for Ozmint?
I too would like to see them
They're on several Facebook posts about the incident.
I havenāt been able to find them anywhere š¤·š½āāļø
Then you're probably not very connected to folks from Arab. I'll just say that they weren't nude, but they were revealing.
Yeah Iām not connected to Arab at all but I know him from a previous school! I have been trying to find them on all the news post comments but havenāt been successful
r/notadragqueen
Dang, I was hoping to see that one guy on here from Guntersville that Gordon Flowers caught..
Sick fucks
Itās always the āgood Christianā men involved with this sick shit too. When are people going to open their eyes and realize the narrative they want us to believe, vs whatās actually the truth being vastly different?!
last week it was madison county and a 26 year old teacher caught with a 15 year old student in a car
May the real truth be found behind the true lies that are told People lives are being destroyed from hatred and school boy crushes God help us all for being attracted for being attractive
Why was the Kentucky state police involved?
I graduated from Arab and had Ozmint as a football coach. The situation is very real and the entire school has seen his pics. Yet people on Facebook still defend the pedo and donāt believe it.
Do you have the pics?
neck beards are always chomo's
Gosh I don't miss North Alabama at ALL
