What is the matter with people nowadays? This is so wrong on so many levels!! There is no excuse, no sensible reason and I don't give a rat's butt about his mental state! What this guy did is WRONG and cannot be corrected. He chose to take away the innocence of a child and that cannot be tolerated! Toss him in jail and throw away the key.........who cares what happens to him as he obviously didn't care about the child's life he ruined!!! No sympathy for these people at all!!

Not such a good advertisement for Hungry Howie's, eh?
I'm sure he'll plea bargain & be on the streets in a few years in our broken system of justice.

What's going on in the Paridise club in cuyahoga Falls is unbelievable, and for sure needs reported.…Read More I was approached in October /november by the manager at that time. He came on to me in a very sick manner,said some very perverted commits and when I spoke up telling him I'm new to sobriety and not interested , he just chuckled with this disturbing smile. Then went on to offer me a job there at the Club, said I could through him get hired, then next came a sick smile. I left and didn't go back there for awhile . Would sometimes attend the AA meetings in the basement of Paridise Club , but stayed away from upstairs. But always very uncomfortable that I'd run into him. I had heard that He was no longer president because he admitted to being a sexual predator which involved several child of the AA members and others ,ect. So I stopped in for coffee and fellowship a month or so ago, and didn't see him until after I sat down. He was playing pool, but saw me. My stomach dropped , upon trying to leave , he approached me asking how sobriety was going. Then offered me a job to clean his apartment. Very ere! If I see him again there I will call the police. My friends daughter worked there I found out later. It's just plane sick that he is allowed there.
