I saw this story about a Texas teacher
smacking the shit out of this kids head in class and thought “Oh,
this is not the 80's and that won't fly anymore!” as well as “I
bet this kid deserved it.” 63 year old teacher Mary Hastings ended
up getting arrested after video footage showed her hitting a kid.
The
school district released a statement saying “The Beaumont
Independent School District can confirm that an Ozen High School
teacher was arrested today for physically assaulting a student. The
conduct was substantiated by video footage viewed by BISD police and
administration.”
In the video you see the teacher losing
her shit on this kid. You can tell that this student had broken this
woman. While hitting the kid she shouted “Because you’re stopping
him from graduating, you idiot ass!” The kid asks her “Why'd you
do that?” and Hastings mocks him seeming to lose her mind. Then the
kid laughs at her, smiles at the camera, and goes back to using his
own cell phone. The school also stated “The Beaumont Independent
School District can confirm that an Ozen High School teacher was
arrested today for physically assaulting a student. The conduct was
substantiated by video footage viewed by BISD police and
administration.”
