None of that is true, that girl is a liar. I am an old student of him. I know Mr.Brown would never do that. He would protect her, not do stupid shit like that.

I agree with Wyatt

Amazing that we believe a 14 year old over a veteran teacher. I do not understand what this world is coming to - a liar can make an accusation and all of a sudden, the caring, good teacher is bad - that is such crap!!

I have known Mr. Brown for most of my life . I know with all my heart that these accusations are false. Shame on this girl. Mr. Brown is, and has always been a professional and a master teacher. He has always cared for his students. While all these accusations are flying around I hoped the authorities are looking into and questioning the character of this girl.

I know the girl and she is a good, girl from a descent family, I know her and her family very well, she is not a liar. There are some young girls out there who are still decent and innocent who get taken advantage of, don't judge her in the public news paper if you don't know all the facts. Questioning character on both sides and letting the authorities do their job to find the truths is a must.

Y is OK OK to judge Mr brown but not the girl??? He is a good honest guy and we all know him and there are some male teachers out there that are innocent and get accused and looks like a teacher got taken advantage of and why us it not OK to judge her in the public news M M ? Isn't Mr brown getting judged in the public news? And do u yourself no all the facts? I didn't think so! Case closed!

Honestly , I went to Dubose Middle School last year . Unfortunately , I did not have Mr. Brown , but I did know him . He was an amazing teacher , he loved his students and wouldn't do anything to hurt them . False accusations are made every day , and I believe this ones been drug out long enough . He has a wife and a daughter and I don't think he'd ever do anything like this to chance losing them ! #FreeBrown !

I have known Mr Brown for 18 years and know for a fact these ridiculous accusations are false. He would never do anything to harm a student in any way. He actually does the opposite. He is an amazing teacher and only wants and expects the best out of his students. This is absurd!

I know him well & one of my kids has him as a teacher... Mr Brown is my child's fav teacher & my child also says the girl accusing him is a mega drama queen -.- I have no tolerance for anyone to be wrongly accused. Sorry, but if u have a rep of exaggerating, i think u should b held accountable. Not saying this is something that couldn't have possibly happened, just that it may b more believable if it came from a more trustworthy source. I've had nothing but the best come from Mr. Brown & pray he's able to prove his innocence ~ what an awesome teacher >>> & Innocent until proven guilty in USA, RIGHT???

Again I want to start by saying that these accusations have to false. I got up this morning after posting last night and was so sick to my stomach by how manipulating a teenager can be. It's actually very scary for anyone in the teaching profession. I hope that the truth comes out and that this horrible nightmare is over for the Brown residence. If Mr. Brown is terminated ( which shouldn't be done unless proven guilty this America right?) it will be a shameful day for the teaching profession as Mr. Brown is a gifted educator. If one had walked into his classroom prior to this incident one would see a group of students attentively listening to their teacher working magic in the classroom. As a former strategist who has seen many different teaching styles and management styles, Mr. Brown truly has a gift. Not all educators are blessed with this ability to motivate and produce results. The man has a wife and child. His CAREER is at stake. The truth shall set you free so please come clean and free Mr. Brown.

Sorry for my typos. My phone doesn't make the greatest keyboard.

i was a student of mr brown back in crestwood middle school.. every single girl in my class knew something was a little wrong with him.. he had a big thing for a girl in our class.. he would drive her home after school, bring her to her house during the day if she needed something, and when she got in trouble he would handle it all.. i dont care what anyone has to say about him. good or bad.. the people that you think are the nicest and are the most honest, are the ones that do these thing. shame on all of you for saying the girl is a liar. you dont know because you were not there & you are not her. thank you.

I had the privilege of having him as a teacher, he was a great professional teacher! He never made me feel uncomfortable in any way, and he had lots of chances to! I had talked to him several times after class alone sometime about my grade and school work and other times because he was just a nice teacher to talk to! He was a kind sincere teacher and was happily married! I know he coached the girls soccer team also. Don't you think something would have happened to one of them also if this was true. Think about it people...

Mr. Brown was my teacher at crestwood middle school and all I can say Is I'm in utter shock, I could NEVER imagine him to do anything like what was stated by this girl he was an amazing teacher and I'm so sad that he will no longer be teaching what a loss our school district will have!!! And I also had mrs sigler as my teacher and the I knew them personally though her dance class and i can honestly say they were a happy married couple with a beautiful life I feel so sorry for the both of them. my prayer s are with there family!

Kelly and Bill are great parents and both great teachers, it's a shame that the School District us not standing behind a man that they hired to teach !!!!! Shame on dd2 I'm not impressed so far by the district and I have 2 children in elementary school now. This girl has ruined 3 lives .

Kids these days have no respect for anyone, so I do not believe for one second that this girl is telling the truth. I have known Mr. Brown for 13 years and he was my middle school teacher 13 years ago. He was the best teacher I had ever had and hands down the most passionate and inspirational. He would never have risked his career and destroyed his family like this!! I just think kids are scared that their parents will yell at them about getting into trouble or a bad grade and instead of taking responsibility they accuse people of heinous things and ruin lives and don't understand the repercussions. And before you know it, a small lie turns into something like this and how can you take that back? His life and career are ruined and I do not believe any of what he is accused of is true. He is innocent and my heart goes out to his family and him. This girl has ruined way more than 3 lives @Mtb.

I had him as a teacher in middle school and I thought he was an amazing teacher but I always thought he was kind of off. I recently graduated, it has been 4 years since i took his class, but about a year ago Mr Brown added me on facebook kind of odd, I wouldnt even think hed remmeber me. Then he sent me messages that werent inappropriate but still very uncomfortable. Just because someone is a great teacher and seems innocent dosent mean they are.

Never said he was guilty, but everyones saying hes 100 % innocent, you cant just say that this girl is lieng. People are accusing her of lieng because shes young and that Brown is a veteran teacher so that means theres no way hes guilty. What kind of justification is that? Theres an investigation going on which will lead to a truth wether the girl really was touched or wasnt.Right now there shows know reason why the girl would lie about something like this maybe if they realeased he was giving her bad grades or he gave her detention then I could say its probably just a girl trying to get back. All im saying is this really is not a suprise to me. For what someone said above that hes never done this before why would he start now theres plenty of people who have had an urge to do something and dont until later in life, maybe this girl accidently or purposly gave signals that it was okay or that she wanted him to do something like that. Everyone so quick to judge this girl they know nothing about and so sure hes innocent because they had him as a teacher once. All im saying is it is possible and I really hope for his sake and even the girls sake if she had to go through something like that this is a lie and for the comment above I liked Mr. Brown one of my favorite teachers, funny, smart interesting so I liked his personality but the way he acted towards certian girls was odd but it wasnt towards me. The messages were uncomfortable and werent about how I was doing.

Your taking things out of context i said he had odd relationships with certian girls not inappropriate. im not going to say who because I would not give someones information out without there consent. Im not an investigator so I didnt search every article or the comments, there will be a trial held and more information will be released then.

i had mr brown at crestwood and he would always make inapropriate comments, especially as him bein a teacher to middle school babys. I mean i can vividly remember him insinuating indirectly with word play and jestures and facial expressions that he "had a big package" really? Also multiple times he would insinuate that he was sleeping with mrs. sigler. Like is it a hugh deal to me? or was it at the time? No not really. but there are extremely religous people out there who dont send there children to school for that. and i damn sure wouldnt want my daughter around any of that. what this article says, and my experience taking his class makes very very clear sense. and i took his class like 15 years ago. hes probably gotten worse. He will get his day in court just like everyone else charged with a crime. I hope justice is served. This should not be takin lightly

just because he was a veteran doesnt mean this poor girl is lieing i may not know the entire situation but i think its fair to listen to her side of the story to and just because yall say she comes from not a good life at home doesbt mean she lied about this yall dont know what she has to go through on a normal day so before yall start blaming her for just wanting attention and lying to everyone listen to her story as well dont act like you know somebody bc you had there class nobody truely knows someone!!!

I even recall before having him as a teacher that other students would say he would sit the better looking girls in the front row, sure enough we got to his class and that's how he did it, we had all girl classes. This was not just an observation from me but from my other peers as well. I agree with Scott I recall many times he would make references and comments about that kind of stuff, just because hes a great teacher dosent mean hes not a weirdo, I got that Vibe from him just some of you didnt see it, I know I probably didnt even catch half of his inappropriate remarks because when your still that age you dont know some of what that stuff means and you dont realize how inappropriate it was till late.

Thata boy Mr Brown! Get em while their fresh!

Things arent always as they seem.

I would like to add that when I had the privlage of beiing in Mr. Brown's class I was what you considered "popular" .... that being said (to the earlier post about the pretty girls being seated in the front row....) I can't agree with that statement. I had an amazing class.....(full of pretty girls) and Mr. Brown treated everyone equally!!!! I wasnt there when the allegations were made, I don't know the young girl who claims she was molested/assulted, and I'm not God who knows the absolute truth..... but I will say that I have a feeling that these allegations stem from someone who was either failing his class, or perhaps had a "thing" for Mr. Brown. Again... I wasn't there, but I heartfull believe the story that made its way to the athorities isn't the truth!!!!!

I wonder if the police investigated the previous school he taught at in Florida. Maybe he has a history of doing this before. Some school districts like to hush this stuff up & give these teachers a chance to just leave without all the bad publicity!

As a former studient, and a female studient at that, I find this whole thing hard to believe. Mr. Brown was a wonderful teacher who made a lasting inpact on many lives. 15 years later, I still talk about him and the lessons that he taught. I agree with the previous comments about the girl either failing/having a crush on him. Believe me, I seen girls crush on him 15 years ago and he acted no less than professional.

What is funny as that people think your a liar, if you don't have the best grammar and wrote everything on your phone. Listen, intelligence has nothing to do if your guilty or not? Your reasoning is unfair. I am not a liar I was a student of Mr.Brown and my brother was a student of Mr. Brown. I never once made fun of your intelligence or writing abilities that has nothing to do with Mr. Browns Charges. I dont sit here and read over what I wrote. I graduated in the top 5% of my class and I attend one of the top universities in Florida. I am not unintelligent and even if I was that does not mean I have no right to an opinion or that my observations are wrong Im telling you how I saw it and what I have experienced.

Is it just me or does "N/A" seem extra defensive for someone with a clear conscience about telling the truth?

I know Mr.Brown && his daughter and his wife, his wife is my dance teacher.., Ive known them for a while now.. and i know for a fact he wouldnt do anything to harm a minor. He might go all out his way to protect her but to harm a minor. Mr.Brown is a loving man and i know he wouldnt never do anything like that. That girl who is telling the lie need to stop because it's not cool at all.

....

mr.brown has always been weird to girls!! im pretty sure he is a child milestor oh well , if he likes girls better than women thats him.

^^^Talk about an ignorant comment!

Hey Ashley, do you have any idea what a "milestor" is?
It's always easy to spot the ignorant, poorly educated, overly opinionated idiots with nothing more than a glimpse of their pathetic grammatical skills.

Seriously!

I know that she is NOT lying....

Everyone knows that MR. Brown put the pretty girls in the front row. there was about 5rows and his favorite girls sat in the front. they rarely did any work and always had great grades, I know this because I was one of those girls. All the girls that were "favorites" always talked about how mr.brown was a creep and would make "not so appropriate" comments to us... *(being that we were in his 8th grade language class". I still know people to this day who say to me" Remeber mr.Brown, that pervert he loved you!. Before this situation was brought to light. If the Judge and Lawyers really want a case they need to go back to Crestwood 2003/04 Class and talk to those girls.. Especially the girls from 5th period.. Or maybe ask the principal for the LETTER a particular girl wrote to Ms. Sigler in reference to her husband..... Then maybe some light would be shed on "mr. Sweet old Brown.".....He didnt do it to everygirl, he was selective.He didnt do it to his soccer girls. When i went off to high school, i even had a heart to heart with a girl i was on a sports team with, and told her what MR. Brown would say and do, and she didnt want to believe it. WELL ALEX ITS THE TRUTH. He isnt a stupid man..He knows how to play the game..

He would touch my arms and shoulders, make creepy comments in my ear, comments about the way im dressed. He would offer to take me home, when there wasNO reason what so ever to, Begged me to come back and visit him after i went off to college.. ALl they really have to do is investigate PBC school crestwood to find out A LOT about mr. Brown.. Many girls would come forward. I could bring 4 including myself... He is a creep.. we all know it.. Yes he is a nice guy, but the nice guys people TRUST the most end up being the ones who do the worst work... Its something that the people above need to really think about. I understand that you dont want to accept it. You have to understand that just because you "THINK YOU KNOW SOMEONE" doesnt mean you know whats going on upstairs...

@unknownPDR i wouldnt make up something like that. Its the truth.. The last thing I would want to do is have a innocent man go to jail or become a sexual predator for life. I am in Law Enforcement and I know what would happen to him. As soon as these allegations came about of Mr.Brown, People immediately began calling me.. Its the truth and I feel bad for Mrs. Sigler/ Brown. Thing is she is in serious denial about it, and was back when i was in 8th grade.

Crazy and sad to hear. I had him as a teacher back in 2001/2002 and he was undoubtedly one of my favorite teachers. But I can attest to the fact that there were some odd characteristics about him. Sure he was funny and nice, but I found it rather strange at the age of 13 that a teacher would place the most attractive girls in the front row. I remember thinking it back then, and frequently think about it from time to time. Interestingly, I was curious about his whereabouts and if he still taught at Crestwood and stumbled across this article. It honestly doesn't surprise me. I'm not saying he's guilty; however, I can see how a minor could question his actions, gestures and/or overall demeanor. And yes, he was selective and I say that with full conviction.

I had mr.brown thirteen years ago myself as a teacher. His form of teaching was great. It was the only class i paid attention in. I have known him since i was six years old. My older brother had him as a teacher and a soccer coach. My views are different then my brothers on this. But i think he is wrong 100% i was a "favorite" my chair was the closet to his desk i had a nickname from him. And had a strong bond with him. But NEVER EVER did he talk touch or anything inappropriate toward me or anyone i know. He was a great teacher who knew how to get kids involved in their studies. He honestly cared. One of the best teachers i ever had. Its upsetting how his life has been destroyed by this. And not just his but his wife my other teacher ive had ftom crestwood.

And lord knows how this will affect their daughter. She is the most innocent victim in all of this. my heart goes out to her and ms.sigler
