The Hardest Working Man in PG County
So I’m reading the WashPost article about Aaron J. Burroughs, a junior varsity assistant coach at Bowie High School who is accused of pimping out a 15 year old girl. And while I am horrified at his actions with the minor, he apparently was selling her since September, I am amazed at the man’s industry.
Let’s take a look at Mr. Burroughs jobs:
- He’s most well known as a junior varsity assistant coach at Bowie High School, a time consuming if not so lucrative occupation. This is also were he may have met the girl he’s accused of prostituting in the District.
- He’s also a Metrobus driver, and even got busy with the girl in the Bladensburg Metrobus yard
- He stands accused of being a pimp, selling the girl for sex at $150 a tryst out of the Budget Inn on New York Ave NE
- And last but not least, to quote the Post: “He also admitted to having two pounds of marijuana in his vehicle, saying he supplemented his income by selling the drug”
“Supplemented his income”?? That man has four job! He would make the Hedleys of In Living Color proud of his work ethic if not his chosen professions. Me, I’m just surprised it took all four jobs to support his home in Crofton and his bus yard sex Range Rover.
There’s gotta be more uses of his money, he’s sure not spending it on his defense. Not only did he admit to most of the child sexual abuse charges, he’s being represented by the Public Defender.
I think Three 6 Mafia said it best
You know it’s hard out here for a pimp (you ain’t knowin)
When he tryin to get this money for the rent (you ain’t knowin)
For the Cadillacs and gas money spent (you ain’t knowin)
I’m so pleased someone other than me remembers that In Living Color skit.
This “assistant coach” at Bowie HS is NOT faculty or paid coaching staff. HE IS A VOLUNTEER and his status should not reflect upon the hardworking coaches at the high school. ON another note—-Why wasn’t he volunteering at Largo High–where he attended high school? YES he is a Metro bus driver.
I am shocked and very dissapointed about this case!! I went to Bowie High and dated Aaron Burroughs my first yr @ Bowie High back in 1989. He played football and was a very nice guy! He met my parents on several occasions and they loved him! He was from a good family and had strong family values. I am very dissapointed to hear his life has turned out as it has. Hearing that he is a pimp is very sad and utterly disgusting! I will pray for him and the young girl or girls involved.
I’m surprised that Aaron Burroughs needed so much money to support a middle-class lifestyle. In our area, Metro bus drivers get paid fairly well ($60K or more when you include OT and other benefits). My guess is that Burroughs was either addicted to some kind of drug or in a house that he couldn’t afford. If that’s not the case, it is indeed hard out here for a pimp!
