Wes,
Thanks your for clarification. It does, as I'd feared, raise a few
more questions though.
Jason was charged with ten specific things (the document at
http://www.math.cmu.edu/~hpt/DST/5.22.5.html). Which of those,
specifically, did the Camarilla Council determine that Jason had done?
Also, in terms of failure to cooperate, in what way did Jason fail to
cooperate with Alex? For that matter, how did Mike "fail to cooperate"
with Alex? I agree that the e-mail he sent to Steel Shadows was
inappropriate, but I have trouble seeing how it could be termed a
"failure to cooperate."
The six month suspension from holding office the Camarilla Council
awarded is listed as a penalty for a Severe Offense. How did the
Council reach the determination that this was an appropriate level?
Certainly the other offenses listed--threatening a member, unwanted
sexual contact, and so on--seem to be much more serious.
Finally, as Dan noted, Jason was deprived of a number of rights during
the process. American courts would consider that alone grounds to throw
out the disciplinary action entirely. Since the Camarilla Council did
not, what other actions are being taken to rectify this?
