Teacher Demands Student Pay Her 25 Cents, Mama Bear Promptly Files $200,000 Lawsuit
Hell no, she went and filed a $200,000 lawsuit.
In what can read as nothing else but a Mama Bear move, Green is seeking to get the teacher, the Baltimore school board, and mayor charged for stealing her special needs son’s money. In addition to demanding that other kids fund her Diet Coke fix, the teacher would also reportedly pull the boy by his ears and got more physical with some of the other students:
[Marcelius] Lockes ”reportedly uses physical discipline with other children,” the suit charged. The little boy said the woman ”pushed us and she jacks us up around the neck by our clothes,” according to the suit.
With regards to the lunch money, the mother only began to suspect something was amiss when a cafeteria worker told her that she “was behind” in keeping up with her son’s lunch money tab. She responded that she always gives her son enough money for his school lunches — and madness shortly ensued. The teacher should clearly be fired for physically disciplining students anyway. But at $200,000, I bet she never thought a soda could cost so much.
