Ok, so he won't be charged in the court of law but does that mean BISD is done with it or can they still issue their own punishment, up to dismissal?

No, it does not mean that BISD is precluded from setting down whatever sanction it feels is warranted.

Don't think that really matters now. From what I have been told, Flanigan will be leaving, regardless if he is allowed to stay.

Why would he get some kind of punishment ?  The article stated the only time the cameras were in use was when no one was supposed to be in the locker room.  Should he be handed down punishment for catching a thief and protecting his players property ?   Maybe I'm missing something.

No, you're not missing anything. IF the sole basis for any sanction against Coach Flanigan is that he violated that Texas Penal Code provision, then it should be the end of the show.  However, there are a couple of considerations which may still leave his status in question.

First, yes, we know there was no evidence that Flanigan violated any criminal law.  However, there may be some TEA or BISD policy provisions that this action might run afoul of.  I really don't know either way.

Second, history is not on the side of Coach Flanigan coming out of an administrative leave and retaining his position.  In fact, I can not recall that ever happening, be it administrator, teacher or coach.

People complained he violated privacy (of players that weren't around when the video was rolling) and it was proven he in fact didn't violate anyone's privacy. 

You're right, everyone did the right thing this time. It was for the best he was on leave so the situation could be investigated. Everyone did their jobs. 

Now, what to do about the real problem in this story. What happens with the thief and why hasn't it been announced they are in trouble?

The criminal isn't getting special treatment because of a family member are they? Man if so now that is a controversy worth worrying about and not the coach who coat them.

Locker room theft seems to be a "thing" around Houston.  My sons have had items stolen while in high school.  They actually caught one of the perps with stolen phone in pocket (they called the phone and the perps pocket started ringing...lol).  The perp received a proper a** whoopin in the locker room and the thefts went away (that year).  Then one of my sons moved on to play ball in college here in Houston and the team's locker room was robbed while they were at practice.

      Republicans don't deserve...

      Hold them accountable? Like here in Texas where we have, by any definition, the most conservative Speaker that we’ve ever had. He pushed through an abortion ban and border security measures, reduced school taxes, etc… and the people who put him in office are firing him for not being MAGA enough.    Every third commercial on TV is Trump (or somebody who supports Trump) calling Phelan a RINO and supporting an impotent replacement for the most powerful person in the House.    It’s 100% MAGA, and it’s 12000% stupid.    “oh, he didn’t do those things by himself” says everyone who doesn’t understand parliamentary procedure.

      Me personally I respect posters like @bullets13 @CardinalBacker they vote for a guy and can call out others in the party or the direction a party can be headed.... others on here fall "lockstep" with whatever happens and defend by all means is the mantra it seems... no need to call out names, it's probably you if your mad at this statement 🤣

      I recall prior to midterms the R's and the "red wave" would get America "back on track" etc.... they would end this and stop Biden from that blah blah blah, so what's the problem? It looks like a circus show from both sides and whoever can sit or stand with a straight face and defend it is a 🤡! Desantis would've been a slam dunk for the R's and he possibly would've got my vote... now they pick a guy who lost the popular vote twice lol (yeah I know that means nothing in grand scheme of things).. point being is the dude is highly unlikeable (I also know this doesn't matter) 👈🏾 just getting ahead of the deflectors... personally I hope the clown gets in there so ppl can see how ultra right the clown is trying to push America for... IF he wins in November you can bet he will be on a rampage for 4 years getting lil if anything done, will most likely spend his term for the same thing some of yall complain about daily, going after his opponents... but hey the D's do it right? So yeah it's cool if we do it SMH We're supposed to vote on policies etc while at the same time the person you vote for that made promises to change or fix this and that complains about his predecessor being the issue! It's all a joke What have R's done that's good for America since midterms?  What have D's done? And please leave your feelings out of this and be truthful if possible!
