They didn't say anything about Webster Hubbell being Chelsea's baby daddy, so it looks false...

Elite School Acknowledges Decades Of Sexual Abuse
...........................................................................................................................
Breitbart ^ | 26 May 2013 | William Bigelow


Horace Mann School, the elite Horace Mann prep school in the Bronx, has apologized for sexual abuse committed by its teachers and administrators between the years 1962 and 1996. But the school, which has said it will create an advisory panel on student safety, appoint one of the victims to the Head of School Committee that advises the board of trustees, and release the school's report of the sexual abuse committed by its employees, has refused to do one thing that the victims have asked for: support an independent investigation into the abuses.

Joseph Cumming, a former victim, said, “The school is effectively saying no to our primary request.”

The school issued a statement on its website saying, "We sincerely apologize for the harm that was caused by the teachers and administrators who abused anyone during their years at Horace Mann School. These unconscionable betrayals of trust never should have happened.”

It also stated that "former teachers and administrators in fact did abuse, in various degrees, students." The school claims that most of the perpetrators are either dead or “mentally infirm,” and the rest have refused to cooperate with the school which insists it is impotent to force them.

One of the victims, Jon Sieger, now 51, said he was first raped by headmaster Inky Clark when he was 14, and forced to perform oral sex on Clark. He added eight members of the faculty made him a “sex object and personal plaything."

One victim who claims he was molested roughly 450 times in the 1970s has sued the school. Other victims have urged New York state legislators to approve legislation allowing victims to sue schools even though the statute of limitations has expired. New York law only allows victimized students to file suits until they turn 23.
