News of the Odd: Teacher Gets Probation For Tying Mock Noose Around Student’s Neck
Ok, something is kinda fishy here:
A substitute teacher will spend a year on probation for tying a mock noose around a young boy’s neck during an after-school program.
Prosecutors [said the teacher] wanted to punish the boy for not following instructions to do his homework. He asked the boy if he knew what strangulation was, made him stand on a chair, then put the looped end of a decorative string that was hanging from a light fixture around the boy’s neck and kicked the chair, prosecutors said.
Ok, now that being said, the punishment was PROBATION? WTH?!
