It was just days before commencement exercises at V-M-I, Webb was stripped of his position as Honor Court Vice President and he was sent packing.
The Rockbridge Advocate reported a month ago that "Webb allegedly used his perceived powers as an assistant prosecutor to get the women to 'certify' that they would keep quiet...."
Certification is a point of honor at V-M-I, and to violate the honor code is a dismissable offense.
The newspaper indicates Institute investigators got the women to talk by waiving that "certification," convincing them they would not be disciplined.))

(( It was designed as a direct response to the Colorado killings.
"4-Safe-VA" training will include tactical SWAT-type training for school resource officers.
Also, critical incident reponse training for local police and sheriffs' deputies who serve schools without school resource officers.
There are, after all, only 300 school resource officers in Virginia, and about 800 high schools and middle schools.
Awareness training to spot suspicious activity will be provided to custodians, cafeteria workers, and secretaries.
And there will be special state trooper training to respond to school violence.
Then there will be a website and toll-free hotline for student tipsters to anonymously report things.
[SOT 13:59:43]
((GARY ARONHOLT/VIRGINIA PUBLIC SAFETY SECRETARY: IF THE STUDENT HAS TO GO TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE, AND FACE TO FACE TO MAKE THAT STATEMENT, I THINK THE LIKELIHOOD OF THAT HAPPENING IS LESS. BECAUSE THERE'S ALWAYS THE FEAR OF REPRISAL. THERE'S FEAR OF BEING TERMED A TURNCOAT.))
