Lafave Found Her Niche
Despite being convicted of sexual abuse, being branded as a child molester, and having to leave her teaching career – Debra Lafave appears to have still found a niche in society. On Wednesday. 97 patrons of Danny Boy’s Restaurant in Sun City Center signed a petition requesting that Debra Lafave be allowed to return to work there as a waitress, where she had been ordered to quit last month.
Lafave was arrested Tuesday and charged with violating conditions of her house arrest by having conversations with an underage employee at Danny Boy’s. It was her first violation since beginning house arrest over two years ago.
I agree Lafave is a criminal, but if there is a subset of our society willing to accept her and allow her to try and live a semblance of a normal life, I feel she should be allowed to do so. She will forever be under public scrutiny, never allowed near children and always reminded of her crimes. If waitressing at a small restaurant in the Tampa Bay area is the only future she will ever have, let her have it.
