Mark Stopa BFF Bob Tankel Talks About Dating Tween Black Boys. That Was Until It Went Horribly Wrong.
Deep in the bowels of Medium we found an essay written by Mark Stopa BFF Bob Tankel. The scumbag HOA lawyer describes the joy he had on dates with two fatherless African-American tweens. Well, that was until Tankel realized he soon made a huge mistake. After the third date, Tankel learned Big Brothers Big Sisters of Pinellas County was not a local branch of NAMBLA (North American Man/Boy Love Association).
Mark Stopa BFF Bob Tankel Talks About The Fun Times He Had Dating His “Little”
Two years after the charges against him were dropped, Tankel decided to tell his version of events. He wrote an essay on the website Medium.
In his essay, the scumbag HOA lawyer claims that as a bald middle age white Jewish lawyer it was time for him to help, “Heal The World.”
So, he volunteered with Big Brothers/Big Sisters.
Was he seeking penance for being a scumbag to condo owners over the years? You’ll have to ask him.
Tankel Meets His “Little.” Is It There A Love Connection?
BBBS assigned a nice 12 year old boy to Tankel. According to Tankel, his “Little” never met his father. Apparently, the boy’s father was doing time in prison.
So Tankel took the boy out to lunch after his soccer game. He then took the boy a pottery store. Hmm, you can draw your own conclusions of a professed middle age straight man taking a kid to a pottery store. Seriously, what masculine straight man takes a boy to a pottery store?
Tankel talks about how his friend talked him into being a Big Brother. However, his friend’s “Little” had some issues according to Tankel:

Tankel wrote on Medium:
“So, my friend and I decided to take our Littles to a baseball game, on a sort of “double date.”
Did Mark Stopa BFF Bob Tankel Molest Young Black Boys? Clearwater Police Allege He Did!
However, that is not what the 9-year old boy later told Clearwater Police. The boy told Clearwater Police that Tankel put his down the boy’s pants and began rubbing his genitals.
Clearwater Police accused Tankel of “rubbing the little boy’s genital area.”
Tankel admitted what he did in a call to Big Brothers Big Sisters:
“I understand that what I did could possibly be interpreted as inappropriate.”
Tankel admitted giving another boy from Big Brothers Big Sisters a “Purple Nurple”. A Purple Nurple refers to when somebody squeezes someone’s nipples so hard, they bruise.
Tankel was arrested and held without bond. At Tankel’s hearing, Officer Justin Murray testified that he interviewed the victim. He said the victim told him that Tankel inappropriately touched the boy twice at that baseball game.
The first incident allegedly happened while they were sitting in the stands:
Officer Murray also said:
“Bob reached over and rubbed his upper thigh underneath his shorts.”
Murray said the boy told him the second incident happened while they were leaving the stadium He told the court:
“He stood next to Bob. Bob rubbed his penis… with his hand over his clothes.”
Officer Murray also testified that Tankel also, “pinched his butt and it felt like electricity.”
Tankel was acquitted after he and his lawyer, Todd Foster, terrified the little boy into recanting his story.
