Fraser, a Rolling Meadows resident who describes himself as straight but a bit of a closet cross dresser, feared that if he defended the student his own sexual identity would be exposed. So he encouraged the boy to play football, act more masculine, and not to dress up as his grandmother for Halloween.
"Instead of supporting this student I turned away and pretended not to see it," Fraser said.
