GUILTY PA - Benjamin Schragger for child molestation, Weisenberg Twp, 2003

[Casshew]

Benjamin Schragger was known as Lord Ben the Steward at "The Farm," a peaceful retreat where children gathered for sleepovers and re-enacted medieval history under Schragger's supervision.

Good To bad they only left the pig with a black eye.

I'd like to see a little more proof that these incidents actually took place.

Knowing the SCA as I do, it seems odd that there was no one except him at these events. SCA people are always volunteering to help out, so if there wasn't anyone else there, it is extremely weird. That would not convict him, but would be a red flag as to WHY was there no one else there.

Actual SCA events are a lot more stringent.

Nobody took the percautions to make sure these children were safe. Plus this "Ben The Steward" plead guilty, but mentall ill. I'll say he was. The suit was filed for four boys and two girls. This guy had no preferance as to who he hurt.
