Case Dropped Against Principal Arrested While In Drag

After an extensive public shaming over his arrest while cross-dressing, and a thin suggestion by the Catholic officials that it may have been a halloween costume, Bardstown principal Paul Schum resigned his position. Now his case has been dropped by the Jefferson County Attorney's office for lack of evidence.

This from WKYT.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - Prosecutors have dropped the case against a former Catholic high school principal who was charged with loitering for the purpose of prostitution.

Jefferson County Attorney's Office spokesman Bill Patteson told The Courier-Journal that prosecutors felt the evidence against 50-year-old Paul Schum of Louisville wasn't strong enoughto take to trial.

Louisville police issued a citation against Schum on the night before Halloween after allegedly observing him dressed as a woman hanging around an alley in his car. The neighborhood where he was observed is known for drug trafficking and prostitution.

Police records indicate Schum was wearing an all black leather outfit with fishnet stockings and a pair of fake women's breasts.
