Matt Laird [content warning]

Chicago Tribune: Former North Shore teacher charged with sexual assault, child pornography

Due to the nature of these charges, Matt Laird has been banned from the hsquizbowl forums.

The board staff would like to request that there be no further discussion of this story on hsquizbowl. In particular, speculation about the identity of any victims will automatically result in a ban.
