Former school administrator gets 12 years in child sexual abuse case

A former San Diego area high school principal and administrator is looking at 12 years in state prison after pleading guilty today to sexual abuse of a child.

Robert Melvin Goode Jr., 60, was charged with 11 felony counts, including continuous sexual abuse of a minor and forcible oral copulation, in an abuse that reportedly last six years. 

Married and the father of three, Goode had resigned from his administrative post at three affiliated private schools -- Classical Academy in Escondido, Classical Academy High School in Escondido and Coastal Academy in Oceanside. He had previously served as a high school principal at Tri-City Christian School.

While we are hearing more and more of these cases in the news, what makes this one stand out a little bit more is that this defendant is the father of three children.

For all those in the world who want to be parents and cannot for various reasons, this guy certainly did not deserved to be called a father.
