  • I swear there is one of these reports every month! What is going on!

  • count dracula

    This guy looks like a beady-eyed little pervert..notice the glassy,red downcast orbs….LOL! Well, he can teach american lit. in the joint to his fellow deviants….don’t drop the soap!!

      Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. As I understand it, the relationship was Consensual.It still doesn’t make it right, as the girl was still a minor, and he knows that and is remorseful.

      Do not judge, lest ye be judged

    There gonna put him away for ever !!!! Now if you where a female teacher (in Hemet) you would get a slap in the rear and not even have to register as a sex offender !!!!!!

  • This is truly a shame. Why can’t kids just go to school to learn and teachers just teach!?! It seems like I hear about things like this every week. But, who knows this may have never happened and the student or so called ‘victim’ could just be saying this. You know the cops will most always believe a student any day over the teacher.

      I would like to let you know that he did in fact have a relationship with the minor. It was Consensual but still does not make it right. he is very remorseful of his actions and is cooperating with every aspect of the law

  • I don’t see why there’s people talking shit about him but they dont see how it’s not just his fault but the student as well!!!! The police reports didn’t say it was rape so stfu!! and this supposly was so long ago why barely speak of it now? People are so pathetic now a days. He’s a good person and would never hurt nor rape no one. So stop going by what everyone say and start to look at other point of views.

  • It’s the law. He is the adult and should have better control and make smarter choices. It’s a matter of trust.
    She also, along with all students her age need to be better educated as to how this would affect him or any adult with this type of relationship. It has very serious consequences. At 17 you need to know what’s right and wrong as well.

    I would like everyone to know that this man is a family member of mine, and my family and I are so very disappointed by his actions. I would like to add that he probably won’t be “put away forever”, however this will still have severe consequences as he will have to register as a sex offender as well as the damage it has done to his wife and family. But I do ask that you not judge a book (or story) by it’s cover either. As far as I understand it was still consensual no matter the age difference, and I know personally that he is suffering more than you think. He did not try to lie to officers about the incident like most people would do and is cooperating fully.

    Mr. brohammer is/was my 6th period teacher. He was a really cool teacher. I feel bad for him to be honest. He was going through a lot this passed second semester. I understand he did something wrong but you can’t just put full blame on him. The student/victim is responsible for this crime as well as brohammer. There was only one thing my class mates and I realized about him, that he was mostly nice to the females than the males. Other than that it was the only thing.

    U young Little Bitches need 2 get a life, or the laws of this world need 2 be changed

    When this man signed on as a teacher he signed away his right to have sex with his students. What part of that do you not get people?? I don’t care who this student is, how she acts, what she said because until she is 18, it is not consensual sex and if this teacher doesn’t get that then just maybe he should not have hired on as a teacher. It’s pretty black and white.

  • noel.

    He was my teacher for 3 years and he was a verry good man one of the most understanding and best teacher I ever had and it takes 2 to tango I don’t think he would be the one to start anything with a student in a inappropriate manner I was alown with him a lot and he never tryed any thing we were super close no mater what he will always be my fave teacher and I stand behind him 100%

  • anonymous

    This man was my english profesor, he always treated all his students with respect, All i can say is DON’T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER, IF U DONT KNOW WHAT THE F*** is going on.. theres only 2 ppl that know what happen, the professor can be lying but then again so can the girl,

  • Adult made adult choice. The child is not at fault. The ADULT made ADULT choices and will now have to deal with the ADULT consequences. It’s a cut and dry case. He allowed himself to be in a bad situation… and he got caught. Now he goes away. Case closed, one less perv out of the school system. Thank you justice

  • gangster "G"

    LOOK PEOPLE I DONT CARE IF YOURE A FAMILY MEMBER OR NOT THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT YOU CANT TALK SHIT UNTIL YOU HEAR HIS SIDE OF THE STORY WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS BELIEVE THESE DAM LIERS OF KIDS THAT JUST BECAUSE THEY DONT GET THEIR WAY THEY START MAKING THINGS UP!!! GET A LIFE AND YES THEIR NOT LITTLE KIDS NO MORE THEY KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG!! WHY DO THEY ACT LIKE VICTIMS IF SUPPOSELY THIS HAPPEN ALONG TIME AND ALL OF A SUDDEN NOW COME ON WE ALL KNOW THEIR DAM LIERS!!!

  • Maria

    I dont see the need for many ignorants to comment negatively on this poor man. Yes he might have made bad choices on interracting with this girl (when in fact he was only trying to help out with school work)not physically like many assume, but why assume she did no wrong? It seems she did no wrong or didnt know what she was doing only when it was convenient to think that way for her? Why dont you peeps work on yourselves and in putting more values and better morals in your children so this type thing doesnt have to happen!!!! She’s just as guilty as he would be!!!!

  • Maria

    Remember, she was 17 not 5 yrs old people….at that age, we “ALL” know right from wrong!!!

  • I agree with Noel

    I agree wi Noel, I had Brohamer for three years and he myself and so many others excellent advice.
    He one told myself and another that having sex with a student was not worth losing his job.

  • The Total Package

    When confronted by a sweet seventeen year old, just ask her to call you on her next birthday-it’s that simple.

  • phuckthesystem

    Ok I’m in no ones side its stupid the girl told them all late and he decided to go with a miner shes a blond for being with a 37 year old , she too was part of it , they prob had a relationship with him and got mad or something that made her snap and spill the beans , that’s why girls can get away with a lot of things .. that’s not right stupid skank

    I personly went to that school and never had I herd anything said about him in that time but if this is true about what he did 2 are at blame he knows having a sexual relationship with a student is never acceptable no matter the age if ther still a student of yours it’s not to be tolerated as far as the girl goes she shouldn’t have done anything with him anyway what’s the girls in this world coming to find a boy ur age dnt be gross and go bang ur teacher have a little more respect for urself and be smart she probably didn’t even think about his well being as far as his job,his life or even her life or family and the same goes for him I’m not taking sides because they were both extremely wrong and the girl should be punished aswell
