Harmon also volunteered at Trinity Christian Academy, another local Christian private school for several years. In addition to his school positions, Harmon worked for years at Kamp Kanakuk, a Christian summer camp for kids with locations in Missouri and Colorado. Kanakuk has its own troubled history of sexual abuse allegations and arrests.
Investigators suspect the damage Harmon may have caused extends well beyond the cause for his arrest.
“Through the course of this investigation, detectives determined Harmon had been in contact with thousands of children through his work and volunteering,” Dallas police said in a statement. “Detectives have identified additional victims, and believe there may be other victims still not identified.”
If you’re already familiar with the Observer, you’ll be less than shocked to learn our readers have a few thoughts about this story. Many who chimed in with their takes on social media appear to believe that the conservative right should stop thinking of certain folks as pedo groomers and place their focus on a different type of person closer to their own tribe.

I would have never expected this from a Christian school shocking 🙄

Look into the federal Kanakuk lawsuits. So much SA was covered up at the expense of kids.
Oh yeah, and zero percent of the abusers were drag queens 🙃
