Teacher Charged After Takes Loaded Gun to School...

Tweet

This happened at a local ELEMENTARY school in my area. A teacher's 11 year old son took a loaded handgun and a box with 50 bullets to school and was showing it off to other students when another teacher saw it. The mother was charged and convicted although she claimed the guns were "not my department" and she couldn't keep track of the firearms in the house any more than she kept track of his tinker-toys. From the time of the incident until her conviction two days ago, a total of 22 months, she had been placed on paid suspension by the school district but after the confiction her status was changed to unpaid and she may lose her teaching certificate. She MAY??? She had to be forcibly taken from the courtroom following her conviction and she was screaming and carrying on like a banshee. This is a small rural district, not some inner-city school. How scary is this, knowing this woman was responsible for teaching our kids? My daughter went to the same school this took place but it was before this woman was a teacher but I have numersous nieces and nephews that have had her. UGH!!! What do you think, is this something no one is going to be able to defend or what? Annie
