Allenna Williams Ward and the 'Unbelievable' Teens

Many of us who wrote about the case of Allenna Williams Ward, the 23 year old Clinton, South Carolina school teacher who pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct with at least 5 teenage boys, believed that the story of the teens was unbelievable...literally.

We were very wrong.

This shows that 'tall tales,' even from the lips of the youngest among us, are worthy of a thorough investigation. In many if not most cases the tall tales are probably the imaginary sagas of young minds at work. But some of the stories will be true and we cannot take the risk of dismissing them.

The following update on the Allenna Williams Ward story shows how the diligent, quiet work of a state prosecutor under immense pressure from the public got to the truth of this case:

Are we just doomed to know absolutely
nothing more about this crime? She won't talk, the lawyers won't talk, the school officials won't talk, the boys can't talk. What's left?

That's pretty much it. Our insatiable need for all the sordid details will go unsatiated for now.

The only person who can ultimately shed light on the whys and wherefores of this crime is Mrs. Ward herself, if and when she chooses to tell that story.

There is no way That this adorable little Allenna chic engaged in such exquisite sexual proclivities. Its simply to surreal and to good to be true.
Pardon my sarcasm but doesn't anyone else smell a rat here?
This is the stuff of cheap porn films.....not the realities of female sexuality.....don't we wish.
Something is very out of focus here.
