Ex-Hickory High Principal Sues Jimmy Chitwood

Looks like Diane Gibbons isn’t the only Pennsylvanian who likes to take out aggressions on kids!

Out in Western Pennsylvania, former high school principal Eric W. Trosch is suing a former student who made a fake Myspace profile about him.

The lawsuit alleges that Myspace profiles created in December 2005 while Trosch was principal of Hickory High School humiliated him, damaged his reputation and impacted his earning capability. Nonetheless, Hickory High fought through the hardship and rallied to win the state basketball championship despite only having six players on the team.

Trosch’s attorney said the profiles “went far and beyond what you would see on a bathroom wall in a school.” He continued: “Also, the profile was friends only with those fake porn profiles. Trosch is way more popular than that.”
