A Navy doctor who regularly acted as a chaperon for the Naval Academy men's gymnastics team is being investigated by the military on allegations that he made secret video recordings of midshipmen having sex in his Annapolis-area home, several legal and Navy sources familiar with the investigation said yesterday.</p>

<p>Cmdr. Kevin Ronan, a physician stationed at the academy until May 2006, has been accused of setting up hidden video cameras and recording students but has not been charged with a crime, the sources said. Ronan was a volunteer in the school's sponsor program, hosting students on holidays and weekends....

<p>Oh, for crying out loud! :mad:</p>

<p>Zaph,</p>

<p>Rumors have been floating about that incident since about/slightly before spring break. The press, I guess, just found out about it.</p>

<p>I can tell you that these allegations are very shocking to me.</p>

<p>w t f w t f</p>

<p>What were all these people doing having sex in this guy's house?</p>

<p>please say it ain't true!!!!!!!!! :eek:</p>

<p>what is going on down there?????????????????????
did someone slip something in the water that we don't know about??????????</p>

<p>oh my.......</p>

<p>The Food Service Department needs to start adding saltpeter to the ice cream like they used to in the old days. :D</p>

<p>:eek:</p>

<p>won't that just stir things up even more??????????</p>

<p>this is unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>he is a creepy creepy dude. they were having sex at his house because he was their sponsor...and he told them they could bring girls over to "hook up" at his house. little did they know....</p>

<p>what would posses someone to do something like this, putting his career, not to mention the USNA in such a position when he could get the same thing for 5 bucks at a local video store? This reminds me of a LtCol that was nailed when I was in, he was padding his travel vouchers, we heard he made himself all of an extra $3000-4000 before he was caught, for that return he risked and lost everything he had; his career, all his retirement benefits, and any integrity he ever had....I for one will never understand it....</p>

<p>This is just another example of how far our society has stooped. Even when you think your young Mid is safe with a good sponsor family, something like this happens to make you ask "What the hell is going on in our world today?" </p>

<p>But on the flip side of this issue, why would any Mid in their right mind THINK of doing something like this in a sponsor’s home in the first place? A sponsor's home is suppose to be a home away from home, and I could not imagine disrespecting my mother by bringing my girlfriend into her home and doing these things....why would they think it is ok at a sponsor's house? Have things changed THAT much in the 25+ years I've been out of the house?</p>

<p>Bottom line....It's just sad.</p>

<p>well, mids will be mids and doc ronan was single, and ostensibly not present when these activities were going on (no mother to disrespect). he wasn't just videotaping the 'blue room', i heard a mid just taking a shower in the house when he looked up and saw a poorly hidden camera.</p>

<p>This sound like: "Boy will be boys." That's what the brass said when the initial Tailhook allegations arose back in 1991.</p>

<p>Unfortunately our society has it's share of these knuckleheads. The Academy is not immune to this.</p>

<p>GA-I often wondered if that rumor was true. And if it ever worked? Standing on a corner on Hotel Street in HNL you would have doubted it. :D</p>

<p>Hopefully that noble program won't be damaged by this. :(</p>

<p>Hmmm...that's funny. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty?? He hasn't even been CHARGED yet. Good grief, it is sad how people jump to conclusions</p>
