Loki: Don't look at me like that. Jessica Jones: I'm just...wow. This was a meeting to share information, not a therapy session. Loki: Every conversation is always both of those things and more. Jessica Jones: I mean, I have a messed up past too, but I don't go blabbing it around. Loki: Congratulations on having no aspirations of ever being well-adjusted.

Former Teacher Wins $5M in Lawsuit Against Loudoun County Virginia Sheriff – Washington DC reporting

A former Loudoun County teacher has won a massive lawsuit against the Loudoun County Sheriff and one of his deputies.

–"I lost all of my friends," said the former teacher. "I lost my career. No one would hire me. My life has been ruined."

> In 2018, Kim Winters was charged for allegedly having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old former student, in her home while she was in a custodial and supervisory relationship.

Just a few months later, in February 2019, the charges were dropped after the Commonwealth Attorney’s office determined the allegations could not be corroborated. But Winter’s attorney, Thomas Plofchan, says the damage had already been done, saying her reputation was ruined and she lost her job.

>> The deputy disregarded many inconsistencies in the teenager’s story including failing to subpoena the cell carrier records of the teen, his mother or Winters. The deputy also brought charges without interviewing any of the teen’s friends to verify his allegations & never interviewed Winters or her family to look for an alibi or determine whether the teen’s claims could be credible.
