A blogger who publically accused a teacher of sexually abusing him when they were both high school students said he feels “no guilt” after the Brisbane Grammar educator killed himself days after the claims were aired.
Greg Masters took his life yesterday, two days after political blogger Brendan Sheehan used his ‘It’s Not Normal Is It’ website to accuse Mr Masters of molesting him when he was a 14-year-old student at St Paul’s School at Bald Hills and Mr Masters was a 17-year-old student, the Courier Mail reports
Mr Sheehan called Mr Masters a “paedophilic predator who pretended to be my pal, but was really friend to no-one but the undertow, and took innocents like me in, and wouldn’t let go”.
Mr Sheehan said he was not driven by enmity and only decided to air his claims publicly after he first approached Mr Masters privately two years ago and received a response “laced with vitriol, malice and denial”.
