Andrew Glidwell Charged With Raping A Preschooler

May 5, 2009 at 4:46 am by  

Hendersonville, Tennessee-Very few details on this right now, but what we do know is that 18-year-old Andrew Glidwell is a substitute teacher at Children First Preschool, inside the First United Methodist Church of Hendersonville. On May 1, it was reported to authorities that Glidwell raped a 4-year-old child at the preschool.

2pyx2xj Andrew Glidwell Charged With Raping A Preschooler

Andrew Glidwell

Glidwell was arrested on Saturday and charged with child rape. Glidwell is not a registered sex offender and police are asking the public for any help they can provide in the case. I’m sure this wasn’t the first time the sick bastard violated a child…just the first time he got caught. He is being held on a $150,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in General Sessions Court on May 27 at 9 a.m.

On his Myspace, Glidwell claims–‘I’m a christian and try to lead the christian life, but I’m not perfect so I do slip quite a bit.’ Understatement of the month…

    Never Ever let him out of prison, or just execute him, he is no good to society after he raped he is GARBAGE and needs put to death!!!! His rights are over in my book, any rapist their rights are completely OVER when they do such a violent act upon someone regardless of age, their life should END

    How the hell does someone look at a toddler and think “sex”? It’s like looking at a chicken on the kitchen counter and saying “oh HELLS yeah.. I wanna tap THAT.” It makes no sense.. none at all.

  • cory

    I’ve known this guy since we were in sixth grade. He’s a weird dude, don’t get me wrong, but hes definately not a child rapist. as far as the pear thing goes, he got the nickname because he used to always wear green shirts. He’s not a perv, he’s a really good guy. And as for the people who are whining and griping about his myspace being put on private, yeh, he’s getting all sorts of hate mail because people without a life who have nothing better to do on even the internet are searching his name on myspace. really? the whole internet, and thats the best thing you can come up with to do. wait until he is convicted before you persecute him. thats the problem with cheap shitty press sites like this one. it takes a person, doesn’t even wait for them to be convicted, and then throws them to wolves like you all here. Go ahead and send me hate mail for defending an innocent guy. My fucking myspace is http://www.myspace.com/myspace_miles.

I’ve hung out with him before, I talked to him at the lunch table, I graduated with him, we even ditched out own graduation parties to hang out with another friend of ours the night of graduation. I’m speaking of him as a friend, someone who actually KNEW him and not of him, and I promise you, he’s not that kind of person.

    I bet that 4 year old wasn’t that type of child too.

    AWW Boo fucking woo…baby raper cant stand the hate but he had no problem putting it on an innocent child?  Bastard. 

    He will be making plenty of new friends in the big house being all pure white and smoothed skin.  He will be turned out in a heartbeat to be the block’s bitch.  I hope every waking hour he feels the terror he put into this baby.  Every night his mouth is free from his new friend’s cock it will be filled with the pillow muffling his screams while he is violated over and over.  And no one will care.  Just like he didnt care when he violated this child.

    Cory,
    When I was in high school.  My best friends boyfriend had a friend who ended up living in his family home… he got kicked out for sexually assualting a girl in his house.  NO ONE…NO ONE believed this guy would do this.  No one…so, the family let him move in.  Then, he attacked and raped the oldest sister in the house.  He lived with them for a good year before showing his full colors.   It has been 20 years since this happened and I remember it like the day it happened.  Geesh, it was insane.  What a tight knit family too…still is…still in the same house…but, forever rocked by one asshole.

    Watch who you trust…

  • cory

    ok, i’m going to rephrase what I said. I’m 99.9% sure he didn’t do it. however, If he did, then I do want him to be punished. But, I won’t beleive he is guilty until it’s proven. and not just because a 4 year old said he was.

  • Friday

    I feel bad for both of them because I’m hoping none of those perverted church folks & pastor didn’t rape the suspect and set him up for failure by offering him this job. I think most of them, victims becoming suspects of sexual abuse criminals, act on what happened to them instead of telling what happened to them.  This is why I hate church folks.

  • tutkill

    I know of a little girl who told that Dad’s friend hurt her sexually-she was 4-her family did not believe her,his family said he couldn’t have done it. He was a respected man who attended church every Sunday. I will never forget the call about how he committed suicide after another girl accused him. He left a note confirming the sexual abuse-plus when they searched the house they found loads of self made child porn. Then his wife can clean about how he use to have a problem and was sent away to a mental hospital years earlier. This was in the days before the SOR. That little girl was in my preschool class-she was just 4. Too bad it took the SOB killing himself before most of the adults would believe her.

    You didn’t google  his name to find this article?   Hmmm…  I guess you don’t have a life either.  Maybe you are Pear’s fuck buddy.  Yah, that’s how you are 99.9 percent sure he didn’t molest a little girl.  Bah!

  • http://www.myspace.com/justdazin So Jaded

    They added on two counts of sexual battery and raised his bond to $200,000.

    Frizzell said detectives and the Department of Children’s Services will interview other children Glidwell had access to at the preschool. “We have to assume there are potentially other victims,” he said.

    We don’t even know if it is a girl he molested yet.  He looks like he is into boys… at least thats how he looked in his myspace page.

    “On his Myspace, Glidwell claims–‘I’m a christian and try to lead the christian life, but I’m not perfect so I do slip quite a bit.’ Understatement of the month…”

    I love it when people have to tell you they are christian.  That is usually a red flag for me that someone is unstable (the fact that they have to say it not that they are christian).  He probably quotes scripture too…I wonder where in the bible it says it is okay to rape children.

    I only hope this little girl is too young to remember what happened…and can forget this trauma.

  • CassieMomma

    Cory – I’m sorry, but it seems your friend did one of the most harshest acts one can commit on a child.  Scenario:  One day when you have kids and you take them to daycare. You try to find a place you trust, good people.  Then imagine learning that your little one was violated by the person you chose to trust.  That is what her family is feeling right now.  Guilt, venegance, hate, all different kinds of emotions.  He did this, he put that family and that little girl in a situation no one should ever have to endure.  They will feel that pain for the rest of their lives.  Think, really think do you want to stand up for someone like that?  People are not always who they seem.

  • mamawhosthere

    According to the affadavit, he told the police that it was an “accident”.  So yeah, he “accidentally” admitted that he did this.  His bail has gone up, and there are now four pending charges against him with possibly two more children who have been inappropriately touched coming forth.  I don’t care if you went to high school with him.  That doesn’t mean he’s going to be out in the open about the fact that he is a child predator.  It’s not something you would have necessarily noticed, it’s not something his co-workers noticed. That’s part of how people like this operate, they are excellent at being quiet and grooming their victims to be complicit.   You might think he’s innocent, but I wonder if you feel that way on May 27th when you sit in the courtroom at his arraignment and hear the DA share the evidence against him.  You also might feel differently about this boy who *we all thought was a nice boy* if you had a four year old daughter at that school and this was happening to your family, your life.  You cannot know how hard it has been for the people involved in this to sit down with our children and ask them quesitons about who’s touched them, where, how.  Let me tell you, firsthand, as a mother who has spent time this week doing that, comforting other parents, and trying to cope with this, that you have no idea at all.

  • mamawhosthere

    And I can tell you with absolute certainty, because it has been shared publicly by the police and by the school with the community, that the victim was a four year old girl.

    How does one accidentally rape a child?

    Cory, if these new facts don’t help you see your friend for what he truly is, a nasty  predator,then I feel very sorry for you.

  • mamawhosthere

    I won’t go into graphic detail, but he didn’t deny the incident to the police.  He admitted to them, which is now ON PAPER, that he “accidentally” did exactly what the child told her parents he did. 

    And frankly, knowing what it is he did, I can assure you my four year old wouldn’t have known enough about male anatomy and function to “make up” this thing.  It’s not some simple “Mr. Drew patted my bottom” or “Mr. Drew kissed my cheek” that is being blown out of proportion.

    No, I am the mother of a child at the school, with a decent knowledge of public documents and how to read them.  None of this stuff is anything that can’t be read by anyone else.

    Right, because 4 year olds are known for “falsely accusing” people of molestation, since they have the slightest fucking idea what molestation even is. 

    Barring McMartin-style leading questioning by a counselor with an anatomically correct doll who won’t take “no” for an answer, and that is NOT the norm, there is no reason to assume a four-year-old made the whole damn thing up.

    BTW, you must not have much of a life yourself, googling your friend’s name and starting arguments with people on the web who frown on child molestation.

    Wow, isn’t it great that our justice system is based on “innocent until proven guilty”? I have known Drew since he was 7 or 8, worked with him in pre-school at our church, even had dinner with him and his family a couple weeks ago at Vandy. Based on my relationship with him and his family, the knowledge of his personality, and the knee jerk reaction of the public, I’m sure this is something blown way out of proportion.

    Those Duke lacrosse players were thrown to the wolves based on the words of a prostitute, funny how it was all a lie. To bad those players and their families went through so much, and out a ton of money to defend them, and all based on lies and the prosecutors taste for blood.

    But, you people enjoy yourselves while lambasting an “alledged” incident, I’m really proud to call Drew my friend, proud that he is a friend of my oldest son, and wouldn’t have any problem with my youngest being in his care.

    Kudos to the two that defended him, I will be sure to share those thoughts tomorrow when I visit him.

    So let me get this straight. It’s perfectly OK to presume guilt if it involves a child, but not if it’s an adult prostitute?

    Personally, I’m more inclined to believe the words from a 4-year-old’s mouth before I believe the ones from an adult prostitute.

    I can presume the guy’s guilt all I want….it’s not like I’m going to be picked to sit in on his trial. :)

  • mamawhosthere

    You knock yourself out going to visit him, but I recommend you head down and get your own copy of the affidavit and read it before you go, because your buddy didn’t deny doing this.

    You know, I went to high school here.  I had a friend who was a great guy, friendly guy, everyone loved him.  When I was about 20, I woke up one day to his face on the front page with “Terry Messick shoots wife, police officer”.  If you had asked me, up until that day, if we was capable of doing that, I would have told you no.  It’s really hard when someone we know does something we can’t understand.  Just please, before you go off half-cocked about this, get all the facts.  Go to the arraignment.

  • http://www.dreamindemon.com Morbid

    We have always update our stories, even when the accused are found innocent. On a few occasions, our writer have come in and admitted they were wrong. Not ONCE, ever that I can think of, have we seen any of the people who pronounce an accused innocence ever come back and do the same when it turns out they were in fact guilty.

    To the people who have come in and stated that there is some mistake. That this teen did not do the things he is accused of. Will you be back to tell us you were wrong if he is found guilty of the charges? If he admits to the charges?

  • ecvmanzo

    You pathetic defenders make me want to hurl. How can anyone stand behind someone who violated a child? Not even if the sicko was related to me, would I stand side by side him, pledging my loyalty to scum.
     
    How dare you compare the allegations of a known prostitute, versus a 4 year old, and police evidence. Hell, the shithead admitted to it also! How come YOU can’t accept it? But you rather come on here making excuses and campaigning on his behalf as if we were going to jump on the Pedo Band wagon…Not now, and not in a million years.
     
    You may have grown up with him, sat down to eat with him, and even dated him for all I care…HE IS STILL A ADMITTED PEDO!!!!
     
    Yes, the Justice System is based on “innocent until proven guilty”, however, like most members here have said, this is NOT the justice system, this is the Dreamin Demon. We don’t like Pedos

    Morbid, I truly doubt they would ever come back to tell us that the legal system found him guilty, even when he gets sentence, and he surely will!

    What So Jaded was saying was: “Consider the source”.

    We set a lot more store by an accusation from a child than by one from an adult person of questionable morals who knows an angle when she sees it.

    Unless you think its ok-
    Sorry no one on this site thinks raping a child is excusable with the good guy defense. If you want to eat, drink, go to school, go to the movies, make ceramics, have a volleyball game with pedophiles -be our guest.  Just don’t expect the rest of the world to want to do it with you.

    When you don’t know someone, it is easier to be more objective based on the given facts.  A 4 yr. old child’s words are far more credible than any church-going adult or pillar of the community… period!  Knowing someone involved in the case will cloud judgment and even unconscious bias; but, when they outright lie about what they’ve done… anyone with a conscience should draw the line of loyalty and trust.  The crime is detestable enough, but when they stand before God and the public and swear to their innocence despite the facts (proof), and they accuse the child of being a liar… they can rot in Hell for all I care.

    This thing is guilty..Is it  not amazing that people have more concern for the criminal than  they do the victim..This was a little 4 year old girl and her life and her life with her parents will never be the same..Just because you think you know someone does not make that it never happened..He is slime..And God only knows how many other victims are out there.>You do not just wake up one day and rape a 4 year old child..The other victims could be family, neighbors, and so on…Do not compare this garbage to the guys at Duke….Their is no comparison….

  • Veronica

    StLCards:
    Wow, isn’t it great that our justice system is based on “innocent until proven guilty”? I have known Drew since he was 7 or 8, worked with him in pre-school at our church, even had dinner with him and his family a couple weeks ago at Vandy. Based on my relationship with him and his family, the knowledge of his personality, and the knee jerk reaction of the public, I’m sure this is something blown way out of proportion.
    Those Duke lacrosse players were thrown to the wolves based on the words of a prostitute, funny how it was all a lie. To bad those players and their families went through so much, and out a ton of money to defend them, and all based on lies and the prosecutors taste for blood.
    But, you people enjoy yourselves while lambasting an “alledged” incident, I’m really proud to call Drew my friend, proud that he is a friend of my oldest son, and wouldn’t have any problem with my youngest being in his care.
    Kudos to the two that defended him, I will be sure to share those thoughts tomorrow when I visit him.

    So you would leave your youngest child with an admitted child molester just to make a point?!  Are you fucking kidding me?  You are, without a doubt, one of the absolute most revoltingly stupid perp-defenders we’ve had on DD, and that is saying a lot.

    but i dont think people on here should say mean things bout someone they dont know! like cory said, they make things worse and lie on tv about stuff! you never know what could happen :)

    While there is an element of truth to your last statement, I am 100% positive that I will never rape a 4-year-old, “accidentally” or otherwise.

    Futhermore, what’s “mean” about expressing outrage and horror over someone raping a child?

    sad,
    Unfortunately, most of us do have an idea of what we’re talking about it, either through our own experiences with cases similar to this (either as a victim or the loved one of a victim) or after having watched many other such cases play out on this site (many times while hearing from supporters of the victim and of the accused). For the majority of us, the primary concern is that a little girl may have been hurt in a particularly terrible way. We do know that Glidwell has been arrested and that the police have indicated there’s reason to believe there may be other victims–beyond that, we’re just like everyone else, we will speculate and wonder until more information is released.

    I’m very sorry you are finding yourself in this place, sad. You are most welcome to continue visiting and sharing in a dialogue with us, but we realize that sometimes in cases like this, it might be better for your own sake to turn off the computer for the time being. Best wishes to you.

    sad- it’s not online for you to read, as far as I know.  you can go to the courthouse in Gallatin and ask to have a copy of the public records/affidavit for this case.  I am not an expert in anything, I just know how to go and find a public document.  You all can do the same.  Cory, I suggest you do that if you want some kind of “proof” one way or another.  Your friend didn’t deny the charges, his statement will be read at the arraignment, I am sure.  I will be there and I suspect you will, too.  So maybe then we can continue this discussion about what was said.

  • sadandconfused

    mamawhosethere,

    First, let me say that I hope I didn’t make light of what you are also going through b/c I feel unbelievable compassion for all of our parents.  I am also a mother of a child so I also play many roles in all of this.  I am truly sorry for all you are having to go through.  It has been very difficult to accept and I want so bad for something to be wrong even though , from all the rumors, it is not looking that way.  Most of all, I don’t want it to be true b/c I wish with all my heart that this sweet, sweet child did not have to go through this.  For my personal sake, I do need proof.  I know that seems hard to understand but it is only b/c when something like this goes so close to home, well, it is shocking and devastating.  I will try and go down to read the paper.  Is there any way that you can tell us what he has said was an accident.  It may be too graphic and if so, I understand, but we have no knowledge of anything so it makes it hard to completely grasp. 

    Also, Lizard,  thank you for your kind words.  It has been a very difficult time for so many people…..not from self pity but b/c we have all lost trust, we are angry, sad, shocked, sympathetic, and I could go on and on.  We go to work everyday and care a great deal about these children.  Some of them spend more time with us than at home.  We don’t take our job for granted or take it lightly and we come everyday to be there for them.  When the rug is jerked out from under you by somebody you trust and it happens to somebody you care about, well, it is devastating in so many ways.    How could this happen to somebody’s child?  How could we not stop it?  Also, just to make myself clear, I do understand that these charges are still being investigated and he is not yet proved guilty.  I agree, I   do think it is best to stay away from the computer.  Reading just doesn’t help right now.

  • tutkill

    Reality check time. Most offenders will be someone you know and someone you trust. Alot of us on DD have had family members who have been victims or know someone who was a victim. Stranger Danger does occur-but friendly danger does too. 
         I think it is really disheartening when people can’t grasp that someone they know is capable of this. Evil isn’t  always dressed in dirty clothes, evil  doesn’t have a sign, evil isn’t always ugly.  Mean people can look like betty Crocker and go to church.  The best con men in the world blend in to acquire their victims.
             

  • mamawhosthere

    It’s more than I feel like is appropriate to share here.  I am sure it will all come out, though. Like I said, go get a copy of the document.  Ask at the next meeting.  It’s public information.

    To sad and Confused who stated:
    “Some of them spend more time with us than at home.  We don’t take our job for granted or take it lightly and we come everyday to be there for them.  When the rug is jerked out from under you by somebody you trust and it happens to somebody you care about, well, it is devastating in so many ways.    How could this happen to somebody’s child?  How could we not stop it? ”

    to the pre-school: This could have been prevented if you had been doing your job.  Obviously this punk had free reign to molest the children that the pre-school employees supposedly cared so deeply about.  To commit these acts he clearly felt no risk of getting caught because he was not supervised.  It stinks of incompetence on the part of those in charge.  Clearly, there was no supervision at this so called 3-star establishment.     This happened on your watch.  SHAME ON YOU! 

  • sadandconfused

    Tutkill: I completely agree with you. I have had a huge reality check and will question everybody now when it comes to my own kids.

    Parent: I am not in charge, had nothing to do with this horrific crime and I do care very much for these kids. I am glad that a majority of our parents have been very supportive of the rest of the staff instead of grouping us with those who did wrong.

    Thanks, Abroad. From that link…

    Two additional counts of sexual battery of a child were filed against Glidwell Monday evening. According to arrest affidavits, the new counts are from two separate incidents involving the same victim from the rape charge.
    [...]
    One incident is alleged to have occurred sometime between when the defendant started working at the day care around Oct. 1 and April 30. The victim said she was approached by the defendant during “nap time” and was told not to “say anything.”
    In the other incident, the victim said she was asleep and awoke in the middle of the alleged act.
    [...]
    Glidwell is the son of a Children First Preschool staff member who has been put on temporary leave.

  • parent

    Sad and Confused says: “I am glad that a majority of our parents have been very supportive of the rest of the staff instead of grouping us with those who did wrong.”

    Why is the pre-school staff looking for “support” from the suffering families who trusted them with the care of their children???     Sadly, the horrific facts show this 18-year old had unsupervised and excessive access to the children with the full and complete knowledge of the staff and administrators.  While not accusing the pre-school of child molestation, they allowed this situation to occur under their noses.  The lack of common sense and judgement cannot be overlooked.  Outrageous and inexcusable.

    Buddy? I’m his parents age, family friend is more like it. I have been watching the thread as it unfolds, but will not be making any more comments until the legal system finishes its process. If the facts show his guilt I will gladly admit being wrong, if the facts show his innocence I will watch the thread to see how many of you do the same.

    What so strange about the quotations around the word bedrest.  It could be that she is not in agreement with the doctor’s decision of bedrest – who knows and who cares – as long as she is safe and happy.   What I think is strange is that your friend thought a four year old was sexy enough to get jiggy with.  Ummm ewwww.  WTF is going on with that??  That deserves all kinds of quotations and caps and punctuation.  I just don’t know where to start.  Shit!

  • CassieMomma

    sadandconfused,  Are you Andrew’s Mom?  The report stated above that Andrew was the son of an employess who was placed on temporary leave.  That would make sense as to why he was allowed “free reign” with the children unsupervised.  If so I am truly sorry, I can’t even begin to understand what you are going through on so many levels…..the trust, the horror, the guilt, being ashamed.  Anyway if I’m wrong, I’m wrong, but to me that would make sense.  As far as Parent saying what they are saying, they have every right too.  I would feel the same way if my daughter was in the daycare where a toddler was raped in.  And to be honest Parent didn’t address you directly, it said to the preschool:. 

  • sadandconfused

    No, I am not that parent.  We are a very large preschool with probably 40 teachers.  I am a parent of a daughter who attends the school so I completely understand where all of our parents are coming from.  It is very, very scary and I would never have had our daughter there if I had ANY clue that somebody there was capable of this.  That is what is so scary.   I also have not worked with this teacher.  Most of our teachers have never worked with him.  As for parent, you are right, he/she has every right to their opinion.  Unfortunatley, some of those comments were made directly to me.  The staff is definately the least of concern right now, I agree, but attacking those who have done no wrong is very unfair.  I could be wrong but I am gathering he is not one of our parents.

    Well, its about time for the change of excuse to come. He was abused -we didn’t know-we are going to try to get him some help. He is just misunderstood-lets all pray for him.  He is a victim too-with a little mental illness added.

    ok, something alot of you need to understand is that he didnt do this bc he was attracted to the little girl or that he was gonna get pleasure out of it! he did it bc there is something mentally wrong with him! idk what it is, but its a mental thing! i have known him for almost 5 years and its so hard for me to believe but now after reading certain things, i do believe it! i feel so bad for the little girl and her family! drew deserves punishment, but he also deserves help! i rly hope he can get help and overcome this! and i hope that little girl can somehow cope with this! i couldnt even imagine someone doing this to me or my children! i dont have children but w/e. you get my point! but anyhow, i posted a comment on here about a week ago sayin that people shudnt say bad things bout people they dont know, and you shouldnt! but i wat i meant to say was you should not be bashing him for something we dont even know is true! im sure it is true but until he is proven guilty, i have nothing bad to say bout him! and even if he is proven guilty, i still wont say anything bad! i wonder to myself how anyone could do that, but i know he is not a bad person! he is a mentally disturbed person! he can get help and fix his problems! and all the people on here who are sayin he deserves to die and calling him names need to learn that some people have problems and they dont deserve what you say! i know no one on here is gonna agree with me, but im right! i understand why yall say these things bc im sure i wud say it too if this was someone i didnt know! but i do know him! and i know he needs help!

    Jennifah,
    A good person does not groom children over months and emotionally manipulate them in a strategic manner for his own gratification.  Period.   A good person does not tell a child to keep secrets from their parents and give them candy, snacks, praise, compliments and other rewards for their compliance.  A good person NEVER acts upon urges to harm a child.   This creep, Mr. Drew, could have removed himself from this environment rather than harm children.  He could have sought help from a professional, gone to his pastor, his mother, got a job flipping burgers.  But instead he took advantage of the incompetent staff at the pre-school and gradually gained more and more unsupervised access to the children.  All the while building up the trust of the children so he could have his way with them during naptime.  Jennifah, I suspect you are a young person who wants to believe the best about people. The fact is there is evil in this world and the most evil of all are those who prey upon the most trusting and defenseless.  Mr. Drew is in that catagory.    If a person is capable of this sort of systematic evil at 18, he needs to be separated from children forever.  There are too many gullible people out there whose children will fall prey to this predator in the future because they will believe he is basically a good person who made some bad decisions in the past.

  • mamawhosthere

    Just an update:

    The Sumner County Grand Jury recently indicted a Hendersonville man accused of raping a 4-year-old girl at a local preschool.
    Advertisement

    Andrew C. Glidwell, 18, will be arraigned in Sumner County Criminal Court at 8:30 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 21.

    The teen who worked at Children First Preschool at First United Methodist Church in Hendersonville was charged May 2 with rape of a child for an incident that allegedly occurred on May 1 at the church. Glidwell was charged with two additional counts of sexual battery of a child on May 6 involving the same victim.

    AFAIK, the rape of a 4 year old child is not listed as one of the 10 commandments, nor the 7 deadly sins; it is however a universal taboo amongst peoples of different races, religions, and tribes throughout the world, and going back for several millenia.
    It is viewed in much the same way cannibalism is, a societal anathema that also happens to be a serious felonious predatory offense.

    Now for the liars, cheaters, and thieves that grace the DD's pages, we just hurl insults, point fingers, and laugh.
    Public stoning is reserved for the murders, baby beaters, and all rapists – and over sized stones are special ordered for the baby killers/rapists/beaters…

    So, you may want to move out of the line of fire, tasdfadf, because as soon as I finish backing this 16 wheeler truck up, dumping the 12 tons of 8″ aggregate, and then blow the whistle, believe me when I say that stones will commence to being thrown.
