Biography
Terrell is the highly successful owner and manager of the local factory. While his business is instrumental to the town's continued survival, he has stayed largely distant from others in the town due to the fact that he is secretly homosexual.
After having lived in the town for a while, unable to state his sexual urges, he eventually wound up getting a marriage for the sake of appearances to one of the local women. The marriage was a rocky one as Terrell always looked at his wife with an underlying level of resentment, but for a few years he had managed to keep up appearances in the marriage and even managed to impregnate her twice. But, eventually, he noticed his son Kurt's maturing body and began to feel some stirrings of his true desires.
From the time his son was 4, Terrell did not touch his wife once and dedicated all his attention to his son, kicking off a 12 year sexually abusive relationship that continued until Kurt ran away to live on his own at the age of 16. As the abuse was going on, Kurt had reached out to local authorities on occasion. However, due to the power position which Terrell holds in the town, nothing was done about this. All it managed to do was further solidify the unspoken divide and the distance everyone in town took from him and his family.
Terrell has been mostly accepting of this distance he's been forced to take from the town. He was mildly upset when he saw the school's new guidelines, but after he settled down he has recognized that most of his upset likely stems from the fact his son had fled last year and there would be no opportunity to get himself in a position to take advantage of the program. His mind is already scheeming and looking for a potential opportunity to have himself designated as someone who can "help out" with some of the boys' punishments, and has concluded that some sort of meeting should be set up with the director of disciplinary action whenever he gets the opportunity to make contact. The most likely opening he can see for such an opportunity would be in the event his daughter ever receives a punishment of an appropriate level.
