Ah, manic episode, that explains it. And yeah, people who are manic are prone to do things that are kinda funny when you first hear about them, but get less funny the more you know. Obviously a bad thing to do, but yeah kinda amusing, definitely mental illness.

I'm pretty sure this was what a couple of my substitutes were doing when I was in school.

Sounds much nicer than what we did to substitutes back in the day. The goal was to make them cry, but if they stormed out to go bitch about us, that was good too.
I wonder how we would have reacted to her.

Anyway, it was depraved, evil, bad, omg the children, they'll never recover from this. They should sue the school for the trama and psychological injury. So badly run the school didn't even know who was being put in front to the students.

Lol much respect

So much discourse in this thread. I can't believe so few people can agree that something can be both wrong and funny as fuck at the same time.

maximum 21 years in prison if she is convicted.

America really does love jailing people

she needed to pose as teacher? i had the feeling a good amount of actual teachers hate kids

I find it frustrating comments here are supportive of her.

This bitch is a loser. Nothing better to do? No decent hobby but harassing people for a laugh? Fuck her

That is some Roald Dahl shit right there.

Relatable

Im not saying its right, but after cycling to work past a school I can understand...

Some do it for the money, some do it for the love of the game.

However, after that teacher left she allegedly proceeded to organise students by race and gender, insult them using racial slurs and derogatory statements, and use explicit language — as well as playing loud rap music and bragging about being OK with going to jail.

A 16-year-old boy in the class told authorities that she also called one student ‘fat boy’ and told two white pupils that ‘they were the type to start school shootings’, Independent reports.

I know a lot of people are going to sound off about how they had it worse when they were a kid, but mental and verbal abuse is still abuse. It was never okay, not back then, and not now. This lady doesn't even have the excuse of being old and worn out like many of the professionals in that field. She's 23, doesn't actually work in that field, just decided to show up and being abusive.

Jones is scheduled for a preliminary court hearing on October 20 and, according to the Independent, could face a maximum 21 years in prison if she is convicted.

If only she was a child molester, she'd be out already.

This sentence should not be possible under these circumstances, unreal

Jones, a former student at the school, is said to have scouted the premises for a week before carrying out the stunt, getting past security by blending in with other students.

She then accused of returning on a day when eight teachers were absent and ‘got lucky’ as only seven substitutes had signed in, before going to a classroom set up by another teacher, who stayed with her for 20 minutes.

However, after that teacher left she allegedly proceeded to organise students by race and gender, insult them using racial slurs and derogatory statements, and use explicit language — as well as playing loud rap music and bragging about being OK with going to jail.

Meanwhile Fox6 News Milwaukee reported that Jones was said to have asked if any of the students had a vape or marijuana as the class ‘was so f****** lame and annoying’.

She was reportedly escorted from the school after students raised the alarm and principal Doreen Badillo became aware of what was going on.

So much security theater just to allow someone like this to waltz into a classroom to openly berate children.

posed as a substitute (who has to pose? they'll take anyone with a pulse. you pay to get fingerprinted and then pay to get an "emergency" credential. the only qualification you need to sub is money)? mayhem? really? she intentionally maimed and disfigured those children?

Her lawyers have said she suffers from bipolar disorder

I was waiting for it, and there it is, very last line of the article.

This is clearly the behaviour of someone havinga mental health crisis

five counts of exposing a child to harmful descriptions

Ffs! That's a RIDICULOUS "offense" if I've ever seen one 🤦🏻

I'm not saying that I condone any of the racist parts, of course, but COME ON! Harmful fucking DESCRIPTIONS?!

I don't think that's significantly different from every fucking sub my kid has had in elementary school.

Mr. Blah said that if we didn't stay absolutely quiet all day that instead of going to recess, he was going ot make us all do pushups.

They're fucking first graders. go fuck yourself mr blah because empty threats aren't going to mean shit to these kids.

And here I thought I hated children
