Now for the first time her husband is speaking out because her lawyers have advised her not to. "Everybody's entitled to an opinion,"says Gene Knox, Viki's husband. In this exclusive interview with CBS 2's Derrick Dennis, Gene Knox acknowledges his wife made the comments on Facebook. Homosexuality is a perverted spirit, I know sin and it breeds like cancer.

But the district is investigating to see if Knox used a school computer.
