Moral of the story: DO NOT trust your coworkers! EVER! Especially not in teaching. Teachers are some of the cattiest, nastiest, gossipiest individuals I've ever had the misfortune of working with. This girl probably mentioned to someone how drunk she got over the weekend and that she was hungover, and that teacher ran and squealed like a pig to admin. I'm almost positive the main teacher clique (there's one at every larger school) didn't like her and was looking for any ammunition possible to try and get rid of her.
STOP TELLING YOUR COWORKERS YOUR PERSONAL BUSINESS. THEY ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS.
This woman really was unfairly mistreated in that room, to say the least. I really hope some good ends up coming out of this for her over this. And her poor kid...
YES YES YES. YES, be real about what's yours to keep for yourself. You have to actually think about & enforce who you trust with certain things. Don't be dumb, if you're doing illegal with a homie, make sure 1. you actually trust the MF 2. you got an equitable amount of dirt on them
People are selfish little fuckers, esp for 'externalities'... me included
It seemed like they had other issues with her and this was the perfect excuse to get rid of the situation. They offered no choice, they just wanted her out of there. I wonder if the principal was caught under the legal limit like that if he would be treated the same way.
You never met a group of nurses, then, if you think teachers are the worst coworkers 😕
@@dianeaustin2414 No matter what field of work you're in, people are people: You get the good, the bad, and the ugly.
How is it that the school staff basically decided her fate, when the cop had previously asked her if she could have someone pick her up. Unbelievable. Talk about nasty power trippers.
And what's worse is that what they charged her with didn't even rise to the level that it would require in Oklahoma.
This teacher, drunk or not, should have IMMEDIATELY asked for a lawyer and not said a word.... especially since her Miranda rights were not read to her.
School cliques exist for teachers too?
@@dank6852 Oh yes. They sure do. In my experience, it's usually either the English teachers or the music/choir teachers.
@@maddiekain7728 English literature. He was one of the best teachers I had. Had a real skull on his desk.
That Karen talking with the principal and the cop absolutely was the rat. She is EXCITED for this lady to get arrested. She seemed almost irritated that the cop would possibly not arrest her.
YES! I just commented on this! So glad someone else saw what I did!🎉
You have a drunk coworker show up to supervise and teach children, you think you'd be ok with that happening?
@@SusantheNerdy There's a difference between someone being upset with their coworker's behavior and someone delighting in the downfall of another. This woman is lapping this situation up. She loves it. And that makes her a lousy person as well.
@@brooke6286 You've never been in a situation where someone is doing something bad, has likely been doing it for a long time and *finally* has to face consequences and weren't at least a little pleased? Imagine if those women had been reporting issues with her and they were getting ignored or brushed off or that teacher treated them badly. You don't know all the dynamics at play.
@@laurielozano6263 Absolutely
I've seen this video twice now and it truly hurts my heart. I taught school for 30 years. I've sadly seen this several times. I can tell you the school administration is the one who pushed the police to arrest her. That school wanted her gone for some reason and this happened to help them out. The police even offered her the option of a ride. But the school needed her to be arrested so that it was a bigger deal, therefore losing her job. The school was totally behind ALL of this. I feel very sorry for this lady.
The cops had little choice if school administrators wanted her out they have to arrest her or they probably also be sacked
So the administration made her drink? That was her choice.
babe, she was an alcoholic. she was drinking on her way to work. she was drinking at school. she was doing those things. the breath test can be inaccurate, but it can't say you're that much above the limit out of nowhere.
listen, i have such empathy for her. addiction is a painful cycle, and the profound shame she's feeling in the video is impossible to miss. i remember when the video was first posted, and i remember thinking: this is humiliating. it shouldn't be public.
and! to say teachers are undervalued in the united states is the understatement of the century. teachers are the backbone of our early development. (have you seen that key & peele sketch "if teachers were treated like athletes"? it always makes me laugh and then feel a little bummed out lol)
but the fact remains that this woman was drinking at school. the school didn't make her drink, they found out a teacher was drunk while working with children. can you imagine the lawsuits that would crash down on that school if any parents found out they let her stay? those parents would lose their minds!
and you can hear the disappointment in that school admin's voice. i guarantee they wanted her to stay. but she was drinking at work. they _factually_ had no choice.
How did they compel her to drink? I believe you are conflating this incident with your own unresolved issues.
The school didn’t make her drink on the job…
"Sorry Ma'am. Walking you down the hallway in cuffs while we ring a bell and chant 'shame' is just part of our policy."
Lol
Her policy - sure I’m not supposed to drink in school. But my needs trump all others so I’ll make my own rules
It's called accountability she shouldn't have been under the influence at school...
@pey-ote I love the GOT reference!😂
@@jamba622 .06 it's very possible that's left over from her drinking the night before, or just hungover. It's under the limit to drive. Do you really believe someone can be safe to drive but dangerous to be around children???
One of the most disgusting abuses of power I have seen for a while. The cop was happy to let her go untill he spoke to the other teachers. It’s pathetic
I’m curious if there’s any grounds to sue. A hefty payout could definitely be of help in paying for treatment, given she probably has no health coverage now.
It's terrible!! She had a drink the night before. That's not illegal. .06 under the legal limit. She is clearly not hammer drunk like the last one. I would trust my child in her care. This was first thing in the morning. Now if they would have done it in the afternoon then yes she should get fired. I hope she sues them. She is allowed to drink at home on off time.
This is horrible. I'm out
Isn't it more b/c she drove to school higher level alcohol perhaps. ??
Pretty obvious which lady reported her, too..
It's so refreshing to see your empathy on this. You restored my Faith in attorney's.
Attorneys on YOUR side
He jokes around a lot, but he seems to have a good heart. So right about the fact that them arresting her just clogs up the system.
I would definitely want Bruce on my side if I ever had to go to court.
Mad respect for this woman and how she handled herself. Hope she sues the fuck out of the school
....for coming to school impaired?
@@debbiejones4935For wrongful termination depending on how that goes. You can't threaten someone into giving you a resignation letter. You can only fire them for or without cause. That messes with unemployment benefits.
*THIS IS DISGUSTING HOW THEY TREATED THIS WOMAN*
She’s not even above the legal limit, never read her rights. One officer lied to make it sound like shes .12 instead of.06!
The faculty are scummy too.
Yeah, that was weird how he said that another test would give .12. So the breathalyzer is that off and unreliable that it can report half the real amount? Doesn't that mean that it's also possible that the real reading would be 0.0? I mean, cops get away with all kinds of ludicrous statements like that.
Most people wouldn’t feel comfortable with their children’s teachers being intoxicated. It’s dangerous.
@@Dan_Caponethis
Like what is even the point if it can be off by 100%?? 100%???? Get another device, jeeeeeze
@@cornhole3way694yeah but there is no proof she is intoxicated. By that own cop’s admission that machine can error .06 ahead which also means it can error the same amount in the opposite direction. Not only that but they didn’t find any alcohol and she isn’t slurring her words or anything else. This whole situation has a lawsuit written all over it.
@@wolfpecker5710 interestingly, I think the school officials asked for her to be arrested to avoid lawsuits by parents.
This is utterly egregious. The fact they never mirandized her, arrested her, and are firing her is bad enough. But on top of that, marching her down the hallway when her kid goes to school there! Who do they think this woman is? Some hardened criminal???
Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if she gets a decent lawyer because this is viral and ends up suing the city/county
She should.
@@ogolthorpthe cops didn't post the video so so won't be able to sue for anything like that.
I completely agree 💯 this was so disgusting on so many levels
I have seen this happen to so many teachers in the UK as the daughter of a teacher. Particularly to female teachers and never mind if you have any brown in your skin. I am glad this is going viral because this teacher needed compassion not to be made a criminal. Most people supporting the police and her colleagues have NEVER taught a class in their lives or planned a lesson *kmft
Cases like this do nothing to help the situation but instead make it harder for the one arrested to get their life straightened out.
I hope that she is doing better now, and gets the help that she needs.
The school handled this very poorly. I actually feel sorry for the teacher.
with that type of administration this could be a blessing in disguise... honestly they could have just taken to asking the teacher to go home because she doesn't appear to be well....they also could have asked the police to not arrest her but to yes just issue her a citation to appear... what they did was just mean-spirited... they didn't need to handcuff her through the school... at no point did she appear to be someone that would resist or be combative.
@@H37P5kY57 they destroyed her reputation in a small town. I hope she gets a lawyer.
Me too. Like he says, this is different than the cup-wiping teacher. I feel so bad for this lady cooperating and then getting fkd.
Me too bc I kept getting even more and more disgusted at how the staff was all giddy & excited especially wanting her to be arrested. UGH! It was like they were getting off on exerting what power they do have ! Pathetic miserable ppl!!!!
@@H37P5kY57the police wasn’t even going to arrest her & the one cop was acting like he was understanding UNTIL the pathetic staff said they wanted her arrested
This administration of this school should be embarrassed about how they handled this! This lady was polite and cooperative. She has a son in that school that will be harassed by his peers!
She's the one causing the problem, if that impacts of her poor kid then that's on her. Not the school.
Sorry but it's how you act like. The teachers and administrators acted the wrong way. No compassion you can tell. Yes she needed to be fired but the way they went about it and probably after talking shit bout her yeah not great administrators
@@user-kc4rl6gt9t But, it's STILL the child that suffers. There was zero reason to actually arrest her. Arresting her was purely for humiliation purposes. Why ask her if she could have someone pick her up? Then, to shove a resignation letter in front of her... The principal didn't think she was too drunk to understand what she was signing.
@@user-kc4rl6gt9t You are so wrong! She has an obvious illness. She was cooperative and there were so many problems with this video I don't even know where to start.
@@user-kc4rl6gt9t if you don't see how egregious this arrest is then idk what to tell you. The police weren't going to arrest her until the admin said that she needs to sign a contract. Then suddenly if she doesn't sign, then the police "have to arrest her". Why was she allowed to leave before then? Almost like the only reason she was arrested was because the school employees had it out for her. Almost like that, because it IS that.
I had a grade 2 teacher year 1967 who would give us something to read quietly then handed out test question sheets. She sipped on a silver mickey flask then nod off. The bell would ring for recess and she would wake from her stupor saying clash dishmished. We'd all giggle and usually another spare teacher would take over the remainder of the day. Many spares in that class that year. She needed someone to Narrate a play had 2 days to get someone she chose me. I memorized everything got the play through successfully with standing ovations. How did she know I was adept at English and History? She was intelligent very observant yet a drunk and the School Librarian helped her get into A.A. I felt compassion for her while other students put thumb tacks on her seat, I attempted to remove them as I had experienced Alcoholic relatives who were kind yet compulsively drunk.
Imagine having Bruce rivers as a dad❤, love the admiration you show your son each intro! Love how he’s creating your legacy each video to look back on❤
I’d have given anything to have had a Dad like hjm. I had one like he had. 😢☹
I’m a teacher and watched this 3 times bc I couldn’t believe how many major mistakes each person made. It truly is outrageous in so many ways.
Oh fucking Christ. I'm in my mid-forties and all of my elementary school teachers were fucking smashed. We knew when the teacher was too drunk to teach because when we got in we would have the old school TV and VCR on the five foot stand wheeled into the room and the lights are already be off so we knew not to raise our voices. Now the world is full of Karen's and everybody's got a cell phone up their ass and everybody is shocked and appalled at shit that has been going on for 100 years
🤡
@rivermcratt3683 Yup, I went to school all through the 80s and a drunk or hung over teacher was not uncommon. None of us kids thought anything of it.
@@rivermcratt3683Exactly, this is why there's no reason to send children to school besides as a day care. Unless they're going to an upper crust 1% school you're not going to be given any advantage.
@@jroden06you do the same pre-printed packets whether the teacher is smashed or not tho. Private schools only tend to have better test scores because they can kick out people that don’t meet the mark, whereas public schools are obligated to take students of all skills. I know which one makes the kids turn out freakier and less socially well adjusted tho, and it’s not the public schools
I get the feeling that blonde lady really dislikes this lady. Like she really wanted her arrested and was getting enjoyment out of this ladies misery.
I noticed that too. She really wanted her arrested. That's really small town behavior.
Some of the worst bullies are employed by the school system.
@@ItIsJustDuckythis is why I got out of the public school system.
I noticed that also! She probably didn't even really have to be there! I can't stand ppl acting like that when someone is down.
Also I hate this small town gossip culture. Happy I live in the city and don’t have to deal with that bullshit.
The Teacher’s Union takes weeks to get back to you. As my Dad, a Judge, says “Shut your mouth until you see the whites of your Attorney’s eyes”! Words to live by.
Several thoughts on this video: If this were to go to trial, wouldn't she have the right to face her accuser? Someone accused her of being drunk on the job -- doesn't she have the right to face that person? Also, they never did mirandize her -- told her she was under arrest and let her keep talking. And yes, now this is all over the internet. Also, I hated that the principal had a resignation letter drafted for her to sign -- in that moment of distress when she certainly wasn't thinking clearly, regardless of how much alcohol she'd had.
OH, Karen ran right over to type that letter up. Scum
The acuser is the police
Miranda rights can be given later within reason. So for example, before placing her in the police car they could have told her. We just don't see it on the video.
They don't need to mirandize her in the fashion you're assuming since she blew a .06 (which yes is lower than .08, but the other officer explains why its still 'illegal' in this context). It's akin to an officer not needing to mirandize someone when he witnesses a crime having taken place. If an officer witnesses a hold up at a bank, he doesn't need to mirandize after neutralizing the threat and placing the defendant in custody.
Unfortunately, we don't really teach our citizens their rights and how to handle themselves in these situations. If anyone thinks Miranda rights are going to be spouted this soon (ala a Law and Order scene) we need to stress differentiating reality from pop culture tropes.
@@chrisdell5679 This is completely wrong.
If I was her, I’d refuse to take the test at the station out of pure spite. That one teacher really wanted her to be arrested- you could tell.
Yes! She LOVED watching it all go down. Why was she even there?
She’s intimidated and surrounded by power and their bullshit.
When you're in that situation it's hard to think clearly. And the cops don't help because they want the test to be done, so they don't really explain the consequences of either of those choices and they push really hard the idea that the sensible thing to do is to take it, so people think that if they don't they're going to get into trouble, when in fact it's the other way around.
Yep
@@mskyn150 She was the principal. The bald guy was the superintendent. They didn't like her for whatever reason, so they set her up. Flatout. If I were her, I would sue the hell out of this school district.
In the real world: If your boss/colleagues hate you so much that they want to get rid of you in this way - then it is better to just leave and start a new life somewhere else.
I mean she wasnt innocent of the accusation plus if she did it that day. They might have had suspected something was up on the other days.
Real world you drive drunk people don’t clamor to protect you like they are here
Agree
@@phunkyphresh3799Agreed, & who drove her daughter to school that morning? Her?
@@showkitties3844I thought the same thing
I feel sorry for her. Hope she recovers and moves on somewhere where she’s thriving and supported.
Our 1st grade teacher came to school either drunk or hungover. She used to hit and spank us. And with me that had undiagnosed adhd, I always got the worst of it and I was singled out in every activity. It got so bad, my mom pulled me out and homeschooled me. Apparently it has been happening for years because when I was in middle school, she got arrested in the middle of the school day.
I’m 21 now and it’s crazy looking back and realizing how wrong that was.
I'm sorry a drunk was abusive to you. I'm glad your Mom took care of you. I don't know what was wrong with my son's 3rd grade teacher, but he was an angry guy, and I ended up homeschooling my son that year, too. I've met some strange school staff.
Wait WHAT?! You had a teacher use corporal punishment recently?!?! That is absurd. I’m glad she got fired and I’m sorry you had to deal w that. I know the agony of undiagnosed adhd and the questioning every day like I want to be good why can’t I just be good? And everyone around you tells you how bad you are. It’s horrible. ❤❤ healing thoughts and vibes for you.
I can’t believe they’re searching her bag in front of the school officials like this. And making her admit what medications she’s taking for what purpose.
Scum of the earth what they done on this poor woman
That's a HIPPA violation for sure
HIPPA and FERPA
@@alicias.8482Definitely not what HIPAA is. None of those people are involved with her medical care/insurance so asking or talking about her health information is not a HIPAA violation. A crappy thing to do, for sure, but it has nothing to do with HIPAA.
Not, literally no. Cops are not subject to this.@@hadenanderson563
This is messed up. I can’t believe this. Arresting her for a .06, making her walk in front of the school in cuffs, making her resign, and threatening her teachers license??? I’m shocked. These people are sick. This is sick.
They should never arrested her for .06. The administrator had it out for her. They should have offered to help her get in touch with someone that she could get counseling. I remember, years ago when I work on the floor in the hospital, the hospital helped a nurse find assistance with a drug problem. They didn't treat her like shit.
Counseling for .06😂
Really sick? What if your kids were in her classroom
Consequences
@@aminallam4188 Completely understand. I’m in agreement that kids shouldn’t be taught by a drunk teacher. But I do think the way it was handled was 100% sick AND wrong. As Bruce said, this could’ve been handled with a ticket and perhaps the offer of treatment. But instead she was paraded around as if she was extremely drunk, when in reality she was under the legal limit and wasn’t causing a public disturbance. Instead of being handled well, she was questioned without being read her Miranda rights, forced to explain her prescription medication and medical information in front of the cops and the administrators, who can gossip about it and tell whoever they want. oh and now the entire world to see. It’s just bizarre.
As a nurse in the medical field, we had a program called TPAPN. It gave nurses and doctors a way to deal with their addiction, whether it be drugs or alcohol. They must complete a year long program which includes drug testing, classes and they are not able to administrator medications. They also have to be chaperoned during this time.
I need a drink just watching this
Why is she having to give her PRIVATE personal medical info in front of the other teachers?
Thank you!! Nosy bitches you just know are lovin this. She needs help not to be judged
HIPAA only applies to medical professionals
Exactly 💯 procedurally this was done wrong.
Not that drinking around kids is remotely okay. But I do hope a judge tosses out this case for sloppy procedural compliance. Despite what some claim, the police aren't your friends in these situations.
Because cops usually have no understanding of the law and just go into things willy nilly asf but since they have guns people get scared
They really blew this out of proportion. Those other teachers wanted her out. This is very unfair on her
Totally!! They loved sitting back and watching her humiliation.
@@mskyn150Especially the blonde Karen.
This was blown way out of proportion and someone at that table had it out for her.
She could have had her sister pick her up and she could have gone to court to handle this. They wanted to humiliate her and they got their way.
@@rxtf Yep, blonde Karen was front and center.
And she fell for it, too bad she didn't know her rights for fighting right procedure...
Thank you for your compassion Bruce. And for your humour.
"I'm sorry Ma'am, you're not gonna blow your way out of this one" just almost had me do a spit take. 🤣😂
That short haired blond woman sounded like she wasn't happy that the woman could possibly get a written citation opposed to being arrested. Maybe she was the snitch
100% she pissed right off guarantee she stuck poor women in
Karma bite her in ass
Probably right, but to be fair we don't have the full context. If she really is an alcoholic, the teachers must have been noticing her abnormal for a while and was most likely planning an arrest with the officers for weeks.
Snitches get stitches.
Karma will catch her
Right. She hurried and gave her that paper so she could resign to have her sign it. She was pushing for the arrest and didn’t want to see her walk out on her own.
I love the two secretaries just sitting and standing there like they really need to be present for this.
Tragedy pimps in female form.
You know they love the drama.
When an administrator is doing something like this, he needs to have a witness with him. I'm not sure why he has 2. Anyway, they're probably as smug as $hit and enjoying every minute of it.
Secretaries are the worst. That's their typical behavior. They are the gossip queens of the world. Their career provides them with so much info, and they love it and love being involved.
I think it's the principle and assistance principle. I taught school for 30 years. The secretary wouldn't be involved. But supervisors would.
I love how compassionate you are. Always enjoy hearing your perspective!
I ❤the grandma jokes. They are hilarious 😂😂
I’m a janitor at a high school and if you saw a fraction of the shit these teachers had to deal with nothing like this is surprising. In fact it’s shocking it doesn’t happen more.
that's sad
It happens all the time, but the school districts cover it up. They don’t want ANY bad publicity and will often do whatever it takes to stay out of the news. One of my local high schools had 4 staff members in 4 years “resign, retire, or transfer” because of inappropriate misconduct or inappropriate sexual misconduct with a student. 1 principal, 2 teachers, and 1 custodian. Only one of the teachers was officially fired and that’s only because the police were notified first, which is actually supposed to be the protocol for the district, but the district tries to avoid involving the authorities if possible.
The principal was stalking a former student that he had a relationship with when she was a student. He “resigned” due to health issues. He was only in his 40’s😂.
The custodian was sending explicit messages to a student on social media. He “retired.”
One teacher had pictures in her desk of her and a bunch of the football players hanging out outside of school. She “transferred” to another school.
Another teacher was sexting a student on snapchat. Her friend reported it to her parents, who then called the police. The teacher was charged with sodomy of a minor and statutory rape. He’s the only one who was officially fired.
This is just ONE of the three high schools in the district. I’m sure similar issues have occurred all over this school district, but they were swept under the rug.
Former police officer here. I worked for a bit as a resource officer at a public junior high and highschool. You definitely aren't exaggerating either. You are 100% correct. Most people don't have any idea what teachers have to go thru on a daily basis, and the level of stress that they are under. I don't care how bad someone thinks they were in highschool, they are absolutely NOTHING like school kids are nowadays. Honestly this is pretty disgusting to me how they did this woman. I agree that there was no utility whatsoever in this arrest, and the whole ordeal served no real purpose whatsoever, and didn't at all need to happen that way. The only purpose it really served was to shame and inconvenience this woman. Chances are that she didn't even need to pay a bond get out, that she was released on her own recognizance after being booked in. So they are basically just walking her out of the school in handcuffs, and taking her to the station to have her picture and fingerprints taken, and then let her go with a citation and court date. It's absolutely ridiculous and completely unnecessary to do this woman like this.
SAD TO HEAR. SO MANY TIMES PEOPLE LOVE TO SEE THIS KIND OF THING.
@@mattjack3983 Yep, its down to arrests like this why people hate cops. There is no crime committed here, the cop just had zero backbone and was told by other teachers what to do with her. Any decent human being would of let her sister take her home, she already lost her job over it, why ruin her life? This was at 8.45.a.m. so the glass of wine from the night before was probably the truth. America's motto, "Shitting on the little guy."
She may be "plastered all over the internet", but at least the internet is on her side!! May God bless her and give her the help and strength that she needs!!
Oh good to hear! This is my first time seeing this. I am outraged at the way they treated her. No drinking on the job. Of course! But this was pure bullying.
And Admins behavior is PLASTERED all over also. I don't think Mr. Kinsey or Mrs.Burks expected that!
Totally on her side❤🎉😂
@@allicmw557I agree. They did her dirty. They could have just cited her and let her resign. They all looked like they’ve wanted her gone. No Miranda right neither. I feel for her. So far the internet does seem to be on her side. I know I am
@@jenniferallen9348 Same!
Back when I was 13 my mom was discovered by the company she worked in to be an alcohol abuser. And guess what - she wasn't arrested, they didn't sic cops on her, and she wasn't fired. Company sent her to a mandatory AA treatment and she kept her job and her position along with her full salary. But then, we weren't living in a country where law is constructed to hurt people instead of helping them, and where cops had no business arresting an addict who needed help.
I found your channel a couple days ago. I love watching ever episode. (Except for the intro and ending) 😂… it’s catchy… but 😬.. that’s just me. I love your suit and tie choices. Especially the ties. This is one of my favorite, yet, heartbreaking videos I have seen yet. It made my heart hurt. There needs to be more education about addiction. 😔
She got on someone’s bad side at this school and they wanted to stick it to her. The school staff doesn’t appear to take into account how this will affect her little girl. I hope she hired an attorney who could help her throw some mud back at the school officials. They violated her rights in a couple different ways, no Miranda rights and they actively showed everyone in the room what was in her purse. Making her discuss her medication was absolutely unacceptable. The two “Karen’s” at the back of the room are hovering like two flies waiting for the blood to spurt!
Well said! Those other teachers are making me feel pretty angry. This is health matter and everyone deserves privacy.
@@gingerlee726 Agreed! What confuses me is that she blew under the legal limit so while she did have alcohol on board and didn’t need to be around children right then, the situation could have been handled differently giving her some dignity. I can’t see that she was a flight risk so…if she was under the legal limit, take her home and call it a day. What was the legality of arresting her? Maybe the threshold for “ public intoxication” is less stringent. I really don’t know.
I spotted those Karen's from the very beginning.
@@robertafierro5592 Yep! I wanted to reach through the screen and bitch slap the both of them!
Right!! Those woman are probably the most disliked teachers at school. Did the dude need back up or something!? as a parent, call me irresponsible but if she had been my kids teacher I would have felt so bad for her.
With regard to this video being shown on the internet I believe viewers will NOT be seeing her in a bad light what so ever.
They will be feeling empathy towards her and disgust with the obvious abuse of power by the authorities.
Also the publics reaction may help her decide to take this further. I believe she has the full support of the viewers.
Having a drink the night before one goes to work occurs night after night by millions of workers every day of the year.
This also does not mean that she has a problem with alchohol.
I think a "fellow" worker has a grudge and has had a word with the PO before she was spoken to setting the interview starting under a bad light 😞
I also think this PO is scaring the Hell out of her - he seems very passive / agressive which is very devisive !
Oh God...I'm so happy I found your channel. The world needs more Bruce Rivers! I'm a 78 year old retired banker who watches too much FOX NEWS, MSNBC, and CNN, and feels depressed about the future (wonder why?). Your reaction videos prove you're so much MORE than just another sleaze ball ambulance chaser (a My Pillow Man would say). Your insights are spot on and humorous at the same time. Thank you for your service to humanity. I know you'll keep up the good work because the world will never run out of fucked up people who get themselves in deep shit trouble. God bless you!!!
This is so humiliating. The administrators are cowards. What’s their interest of her being arrested? Instead of helping her and keep it quiet. She wasn’t a threat, she was cooperative, she’s not a criminal. They should have stood up for her instead of throwing her under the bus. I hope she recovers and finds a better employer.
Honestly surprised there isn’t a program for her as the first step. Hell, when I worked at Sears they had a whole counselling thing. As long as the person admitted they needed help then they were put in a program. Granted it was there first and last chance but at least they got the chance to move past such a huge mistake.
Don't get drunk and go teach and it won't be anything to be arrested over
Police should be following correct procedures so they don’t come out of this well.
Bruh. You shouldn’t be drunk around kids teaching them; helll no. I would be so livid if I found out my kid teacher was drunk in school
Wtf she’s drunk teaching omg !!
Honestly as much as I love my own children, having to be in a classroom with 30 of them would drive me to drink. 😂😂
😂😂😂
As a former teacher, people really dont understand how stressful bring a teacher CAN be.
@@hi-d12forlifeBeing a teacher in America truly sounds like a nightmare
I'd need some jack Daniels to deal with 30 crotch goblins at once.
Truth!
Having been arrested for DWI when I was cold sober (hadn’t had a drink in days), but failed the on the spot sobriety balance tests, I feel for this woman
I wanna sue them for her… this is absolutely ridiculous
This kind of thing happened to me when I was struggling with serious drug addiction as a teacher. It was the most humiliating day of my life. Thank goodness it’s not all over CZcams.
Very brave of you to say. Feel so sorry for this teacher, who needed a friend and treatment, not public humiliation. So sad.
What happened?
If you don’t mind answering, what happened? Did they just randomly call the cops and do this? I’m sorry for what you went through and I hope you were given help and compassion compared to this nightmare of a place!
Just wanted to say I'm sorry this happened to you, I also was struggling with a heavy addiction whilst working in school, I was with a small team, we weren't teaching staff, and my colleagues actually got me to go get help.and I got onto a rehabilitation program. My one colleague who actually became an amazing friend and support, especially when I later lost both parents. I did see the cattiness of the teaching staff though. I definitely felt some snobbery towards me as a "non teacher" I'm so sorry that you had to go through it. ❤
Hope you're not teaching anymore.
He lied, he told the school personnel "I can either have some get her or arrest her." The woman in the white shirt threw a fit. He comes back and said "I am required to arrest you.
I know. He did ask if she could have someone pick her up!! They just screwed her because they could!!!
I know who told it. The lady in the white shirt. She was so bewildered and shocked when the police initially said they said the teacher was not being arrested. "So she is NOT going to be arrested." She couldn't wait to catch that lady slipping. The teacher was wrong, of course. But the white shirt wanted the jailhouse and unemployment for her.
Granny needing esign all the time is crazy 😆
This was a sneaky termination. There should have been a union rep present. The cop could have written her a citation and had someone pick her up. I do hope she got help after this. Wishing her the best.
I'm guessing this is a charter school or private/parochial school. No union and they pretty much treat you however they want.
She's drunk what the hell are you talking about
"And I know it's a small town..."
The utter defeat in her voice when she said that is so damn sad. She knows what's in store for her, her son and the rest of her family, all because her jaded, self-righteous and probably hypocritical KAREN coworkers convinced the police to arrest her... This incident is nauseating to watch.
That said, I hope she and her family are able to rebound from this humiliating ordeal and she gets the help she might need... I emphasized the word "might because there's also a chance that she's not actually an alcoholic but a social drinker who made a dumb mistake... Either way, none of that justifies am arrest and immediate termination from her career...
I like ur explanations. Learning alot from you. Thank u
This is why I like watching yo show bro , this is why I love yo show frfr bc you are entertaining and you provide the people (us) with substance thank you and you are a awesome lawyer 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The other teacher clearly looked intoxicated but this lady seems fine. I’m really surprised they escalated this so much. I really want to know what the context is for this. Why did they think she was drunk?
They clearly had it out for her. The administrators basically said to the cops: "can you arrest her? we'd really appreciate it if you could arrest her", and the cop complied. Sickening.
@@Dan_Caponedespicable! I really hope that their own sins get blasted to the public!
She seems really sweet. I feel bad for her. I hope this doesn’t ruin her life.
This is the very first time I've seen one of your videos, and I'm loving it! Instantly subscribing. It's informative and funny!!
I swear I can listen to you all day. You are truly a captivating person. You are also hilarious 😂😂
That’s crazy. The least restrictive means of getting a person before the court should be used. There’s absolutely no point or purpose in arresting her.
The only purpose was her humiliation. Classic bullying tactic, teachers are far from exempt
Those teachers wanted it and the cop caved. So gross
Of course there is.. that dude gets to feel like he pees standing up for the day!!
In America it seems that the cops' job is to arrest as many people as possible at every opportunity. Fines, court fees, legal fees and private prisons. The prison industrial complex is a vast web of income for millions
@@MRRBPOOL If he's the principal of that school, I'd hire a PA. Trust me, everyone has dirty laundry.
This happened to my sister who was a special education teacher for 30 years. She developed a drinking problem later in life. They found her to be drunk at school and there was vodka in her classroom (this was 20 years ago) they told her to go to rehab and get clean for a certain period of time and if she did she could return to work with her current status in tact and she would have random alcohol tests. She did all that and returned to work and was sober for 5 years. Unfortunately she relapsed hard and died at the age of 55 from severe alcoholism. Her work really treated her with respect.
thats sad, I'm glad the school got her into rehab though
I’m sorry for your loss.
@@natalie235 Thank you she was a person I never in my life would have gone down that path.
@@Sputterbugz Yes it was very sad. I never would have thought that would have been a path she ended up on. That said her work was very good to her. Unlike these videos. Some things should not be put out to the universe :(
I’ve always wondered what the elusive “content creator” looks like! Thanks for posting that pic! Lol
I absolutely love the hype and affection you show for your son
The “utility” is she lives in a small town and the embarrassment/shame factor can never be underestimated in a small town to this very day!! Someone at the school - that one short lady - desires immediate and life-long consequences. Zero Grace in that sad woman’s life…hope she never needs forgiveness since she’s obviously so perfect!!
Absolutely. Petty nastiness was the real crime here.
The utility is the bail goes into city coffres. But the processing alone would cost more than her bail
@@Lepenseur73 - wouldn’t disagree - but the over-riding utility is the shame factor. Vengeful woman needed the teacher’s dirty laundry hung so ALL would see. As you said, costs exceed, most likely, the money the town/county would receive - the utility will be found in its highest concentration in shame…
The shame level is intense. I felt uncomfortable and I don't even drink.
same!!! literally reasons why I don't drink....
Good, because her public embarrassment was meant to be a deterrent on anyone else who would otherwise consider coming to work at a school while drunk. That means the system is working.
@@theKashConnoisseur Shaming and punishing somebody for a disease, and making it nearly impossible for that person to get their life straightened out shows how broken the system is, not the opposite.
@@IsaacSanberg drug abuse is a choice, not a disease. You don't suddenly catch alcoholism, you choose to drink excessively, over long periods of time. Same thing with every other drug.
"The system" is trying to protect the innocent from the dangers of the addict. I'd rather the teacher get shamed and punished than allow her to drunk drive through a bunch of pedestrians.
Bruce said, “I wanna know who the bitch is who snitched on me”!!
I cracked the hell up! You guys are so awesome! Keep up the amazing work!! ❤
And Bruce your one liners kill me! 😂
The Guy in the Blue shirt pressuring for resignation & arrest wants to make an example / do an assembly on the pit falls of Alcohol abuse / addiction . Would love to hear what other staff members, parents and the kids had to say on what they know of each of them.
It's such a relief to hear your compassion for the accused.
I am in recovery 27 years. And this made me cringe.
@@francesdelarue4519do you mind elaborating?
Would love to see a follow up on this one. Was she ever given her Miranda warning? What was the outcome? Those staff members were probably yammering away at all of the teachers and all of their friends abut this.
I've never seen a faculty of literal Karen's before I saw this video.. And at the expense of this woman's professional and personal life... it's all just so damn sad and completely wrong. I hope she gets the help she needs and goes back to teaching at a place a lot less toxic than this poorly ran excuse of a school...
I’d also love a follow up! Too bad Bruce can’t represent her! This all sucked but allowing her coworkers to watch the entire thing was disgusting. They should all be mortified to have stayed in that room.
I hope their consciences eat them alive, but I doubt they'll get anything but joy from this shameful persecution.
@@JimSty-bh1os Hmmmm, heard of science before? Ever had alcohol before? Just asking. Hmmm 🤔, how much alcohol do you think she had in her system after that ONE glass of wine at 2:30 am?, guess? Nope? Well, it will be between 0.03 to 0.08, then you go to sleep for about 7 hours, right?, RIGHT?, what happens then? The alcohol will be out of your system after only ONE glass of wine. RIGHT?, RIGHT?
So, explain why she had 0,66 alcohol in her system when she was at school???.
Only way her ALCOHOL LEVELS could be that high, was that she had been drinking about a bottle of wine until 2:30 AM, or that she drank 2 /3 glasses of wine before she left her house that morning. She failed the pen test, she couldn’t keep her head straight while following the pen with her eyes, first sign that she’s not sober.
I am totally shocked that you people think it’s alright for a drunk teacher to teach your kids. Dang, would love to know where most of these people live who thought that she was sober. She would have gotten a DWI if she had been driving.
Seems no one knows about science in this group.
I’ve driven really really tired before. Worked as a travel nurse and I’d work 4 12 hour shifts on nights and after my last 12 hour shift, I’d have to drive home for 4 hours. I’d usually stop 1/2 way and take a nap but most people don’t know that lack of sleep is often worse than drinking and driving.
Neither should be done.
I was at school in the 60's and 70's here in England. The teachers would go to the pub for lunch. I had some homework to be marked and was at the staffroom door asking for Mr Wilson and was told to take it over to the Cob & Penn across the road. Mr Wilson was in there amongst a host of teachers. I'll mark it now so go to private bar and wait, I'll bring it to you. This was not unusual at all. Couldn't get away with that these days😅
Hi, long time viewer, first time commenter. Not sure if anyone else has pointed this out, but her failure of the horizontal gaze nystagmus test could’ve been caused by Xanax, which she has a legal prescription for. Additionally, the fact that the officer estimated a margin of error for his PBT of .06 (he estimated that her BAC was closer to .12 when his PBT read .066) shows that he has no idea how to properly calibrate his device, and it likely hasn’t been properly calibrated in months. These two facts, plus her sober seeming demeanour, make me think that she may not actually have drank at all since the prior night (though she may have drank more than she let on the previous night).
I agree with this comment so much
Also I wish she would’ve said. Everyone else in this room give a sample and I will send op. That way we know for a fact if it’s perfect or not. If there isn’t any error it should have read zero for the others.
She was absolutely railroaded and it was disgusting. Could’ve been a plan masterminded all along. What if a friendly teacher brought her iced coffee at lunch. I’m just saying. There could have been anything that happened. They held her hostage and didn’t even mirandize her.
I’m so angry watching this.
I’m sorry, but Xanax does not effect one’s eyesight. It has nothing to do with her failing the nystagmus test.
@@terryKessler42719 Hi, I’ve been trying to respond to your comment for a while, but CZcams keeps deleting my comment when I try to include links to sources.
While it may not feel like Xanax effects your vision, it can still cause horizontal gaze nystagmus due to it’s similar mechanism of action to alcohol.
Benzodiazepines and alcohol are both GABAergic CNS depressants that cause similar involuntary physiological responses (including horizontal gaze nystagmus) due to their similar agonism towards GABA receptors. Other GABAergic CNS depressants such as barbiturates can cause horizontal gaze nystagmus for the same reason.
I tried to include sources at this point, but CZcams wouldn’t let me, so I’ll instead encourage you to google the following:
NDAA horizontal nystagmus: the science and the law (from the National District Attorneys Association)
TDCAA field sobriety test review (from the Texas District and County Attorneys Association)
Apologies for the inconvenience, I hope you find this information helpful.

@@terryKessler42719🤔it says don’t operate heavy machinery when you take Xanax until you know how it will affect you. A lot of other factors could lead to the medication affecting her when it wouldn’t affect another person.
I'd drink if I were a teacher having to deal with administration that is so blatantly unsupportive not to mention behavioral issues with parents & students (though probably not on the job). This was simply mean.
not to mention Oklahoma is one of the worst places to be a teacher. They are dealing with a teaching shortage and give thousands of emergency teaching certifications to make their schools even slightly functional.
when I worked in an Oklahoma school the wonderful, committed teacher whose classroom I worked in was on food stamps due to low income and commuted over an hour daily despite the fact she'd been a teacher for decades in the state, literally had cared for kids in the middle of a tornado as it hit a school.
teaching is a devalued profession in Oklahoma, if they want things like this to stop happening (second viral drunk teacher video of the year less than a month into the school year) it will take more than public humiliations of those dealing with addiction.
"From 2001-2018, Oklahoma’s enrollment in university education programs dropped by 80%. That decline caused Oklahoma City University to phase out its early childhood and elementary teacher preparation programs altogether."
"Oklahoma’s teacher shortage led to a record-breaking 3,780 emergency teaching certifications issued in 2022."
I agree.
Just smoke weed
@@baby.nay. 😁
I wouldn't drink, I'd just find a different job. Take care of yourself, don't abuse your body in order to numb your mind and soul to a painful situation.
:Thank you for the content. You explained things that I had questions about when I saw this video the first time it came out. You're commentary made me chuckle a few times. I will subscribe and watch more of your videos.
Those administrators suck. They pushed to get her arrested, like losing her job and being scorned forever on the internet isn't enough. Especially, considering how cooperative she was.
I’m a pool manager for a swimming school in England, I’ve had two of my teachers turn up to work on a Saturday morning with signs of intoxication. The first teacher had just turned 18 (the legal drinking age over here) and was still kind of drunk when they arrived, so I told them to stay in the pool office until they could get picked up and taken home, we spoke the following day and I told them that they have had a warning and that if it happened again I would have to terminate them but they were a kid that didn’t really know about alcohol and it’s effects so I kept the situation off the record and just docked their pay for that day. The other time was on a Tuesday around midday, the teacher had gone off site to have a cigarette and when they came back they barely made it into the building without falling over themselves, they stank of booze and when they were pulling their teachers ID out of their bag and a half empty bottle of vodka fell out onto the floor in front of the students, at that point all I could do was get them off grounds and home with a taxi and terminate that teacher. I didn’t involve police in these situations because it would have been more distressing to the kids to have police jumping on their teacher. We only ever have police on grounds if they are doing a talk to the students or if the situation is so severe that the students are at immediate threat without the police being called
Good on you, I'm glad you are in charge of that pool. You sound like you have a level head with a good head on your shoulders. Hope you have a wonderful day!
This BIT! "I didn’t involve police in these situations because it would have been more distressing to the kids to have police jumping on their teacher" because regardless of what the teacher might have done all the children see is someone they depend on in handcuffs... How is this going to affect their development? Not positively I can promise you that - and especially if there are any brown children in that school...... Thank you Thorstendeal for treating your staff with dignity and above all else making the welfare and protection of the children the priority.
@@MRRBPOOL Now I feel ashamed of my comment; wish I could've put it as eloquent as you have there haha!
You are a truly responsible and mature adult, and I respect that.
Yes a little bit of grace is nice to see. It’s not like children were really in danger. What was she going to do?
As a retired teacher and union president, I thought they screwed this teacher. She should have asked for a union rep and called her lawyer and kept her mouth shut. They shoved that resignation letter in front of her and that was wrong. You're right Bruce don't answer questions! This teacher could have saved her career, maybe, had she played it smarter. Alcoholism is a disease and should be treated as such. She needs help.
Is addiction in general also a disease?
@@Darkshark420 "The American Society Addiction Medicine (ASAM) defines Addiction as a primary, chronic disease of brain reward, motivation, memory and related circuitry. Dysfunction in these circuits leads to characteristic biological, psychological, social and spiritual manifestations."

She screwed herself lol
These are some of my favorite videos to watch in the morning and make myself laugh.
“I drink at home before I come in” lol!
To me, this stinks of corruption and that the staff had reasons to get her out before this, they were just looking for the absolute flimsiest excuse to get her out.
Drinking on the job as a teacher isn't a flimsy excuse. She clearly drank that day. I don't agree with the public humiliation aspect but I don't think corruption is in play.
It does seem like small town BS.
That’s what I was thinking. They wanted her gone.
I bet the narc is the one in the room standing behind her 🙄
@@Jen1N. Big City vs Small Town
Both have tons of b.s.
Am I the only one who noticed how obviously disappointed the police officer was that she only blew a 0.06?? He was irritated asf he didn’t get to arrest her. You could tell immediately.
A few times the cops searched me and only found weed while telling me that they knew I had other drugs so I said search me all you want and they were so pissed off that they didn’t find anything. I love pissing off scum bag cops like that
Oh without a doubt which is why he was sooo quick to explain “this always reads low, I know you’re actually dbl what this one read” like dude TF
He did arrest her
💯
I did. He also asked if she could have someone pick her up and then doesn't allow it. Her work is a completely separate issue from the arrest. He knew she was going to lose her job. He didn't need to humiliate her even more.
Omg! I adore you and your humorous explanations and comments ! As well you might be the only lawyer I look up to, have listened to many now and learning, laughing so much ! Thanks you are awesome 👏🏻🥰😎
Love you Bruce Rivers!
The three stooges in the back should not be allowed to gawk at her. The keystone kops are so annoying. The one sitting down can’t stop picking the skin off his fingers. The other cop is letting the bald principle and his two old hens make all the decisions. The white haired lady is so worried that they won’t arrest her. She doesn’t want her to be allowed to go home. Unbelievable how they all railroaded her. Seems like they were looking for any excuse to fire her. Please public intoxication. I’ve seen people who were public intoxicated. They didn’t look like this calm mild mannered teacher. She isn’t intoxicated and they are all shady.
FACTS!!!! did you see the way the white haired lady breathed the biggest sigh of relief when the nonsense power trip policeman said he was gonna arrest her and then another one when she said she would resign? They all think that was going to be the end of it... instead the whole world is now reviewing this situation and it is embarrassing to witness. My money is on the one in the blue dress for the grass *kmft
Petty people enjoy their petty power.
She's blatantly not publicly intoxicated. They keep harping on "if you were driving", but she isn't! The standard of dwi vs public intoxication is WAY DIFFERENT. Saying that anytime someone has any amount of alcohol in their blood is public intoxication is straight up asinine.
I just have to say I agree with so many of these comments about the other administrators being pretty nasty. You could just feel their angst towards her and how badly they just wanted her to get arrested regardless of any details or of her wellbeing. They're just those people who feel like they're the judge, jury, and executioner.
Yeah and I bet a lot of those administrators are pill heads they probably do meth and all kinds of shit get drunk every night.. statistics say that's true
Would u want ur child being taught under alcohol. This is 3rd teacher. Another teacher had alcohol, meth & coke in her posession. Other teacher was drinking while teaching. Maybe during lockdown they got a habit? Kids learn what they see far more that what they r told. Hence cig smoking or vaping.
Yes. I’ve been a teacher for 40 years. The blonde woman really went for broke- she was already fired- but blondie pushed for arrest.
The principal seemed almost gleeful when telling her that this might make the news. I feel so bad for her.
@@spicyirwin5835 Stop with this false dilemma, please. No one is saying that the only two options are humiliating her with an arrest or letting her teach while being drunk. There was no reason for the arrest, she could've been sent home and given a job suspension while she gets help or gets cleaned or whatever. We're all people.
Thank you Bruce for highlighting this case! I hope she hires the best lawyer in town! I truly hope she sees this video! This is disgusting how they treated her!
Many years ago I was young and just out of the military, went to bars with friends and got caught up in a checkpoint. I knew I was not safe to drive, I had quite a few drinks. I don't know how I passed the eye and walking test, but I was allowed to get back in my car and leave. Shook me up, and I don't drink out anymore.
Love the opening song but all I hear is Bruce Willis is the etc...etc.... Anyone else hear it as this ? 🤣
Happy New Year from the UK x
I don’t see why they allowed the administrators to be so involved. There’s no reason 3 extra people had to be in there to judge & add their input. You can tell the blonde lady can’t wait to spill the gossip to the whole town. Especially when she was pushing for the arrest. Makes her story more exciting! Disgusting. This teacher needs help not humiliation.
exactly. Mr. Kinsey used his influence as a superintendent to sway the police officer.This was awful to witness the Admins behavior and he office folding. At least the superintendent on the prior intoxicated teacher had some empathy.
To be telling her all the "evidence" infront of those back stabbing bitches was truly unacceptable. She's been humiliated, and I can imagine the teachers have wanted her gone for a while. Perhaps she's a bit "out there" or "loud" for the other staff. But she cant be fired for that, so they have created this scenario. Absolutely disgusting. She was so respectful and dignified.
She wasn’t liberal enough for them but what pushed them over the edge was when she refused to hang a rainbow 🌈 flag in her classroom
@@StackedOdds76she was be part of the maga cult
I agre with you except for one point. No one created this scenario. The other teachers at the school obviously capitalized on the opportunity, but no one forced booze down her throat. This teacher put herself in this situation. That said, the way this was handled was just horrible. As embarrassing as it was, the way the cops handled this basically gave her a get out of jail free card. Any lawyer worth his salt will get this thrown out due to the multiple instances of misconduct we all witnessed here. No miranda warning, making her disclose medical information in front of uninvolved parties, taking her to jail essentially at the request of school staff…just absolutely unprofessional and very obviously done to embarrass her and punish her for her actions, which is absolutely not the cop’s job.
@LV_223 I agree with your comment, however, even though they didn't physically force her to drink, I just wonder if they made her life so awful in the workplace she was driven to it!
@@StackedOdds76 are you dumb?
Thank you for saying what you said towards the end, counsel. Be a help to someone who needs it. ❤
Those pigs are all on a power trip. Hopefully this poor teacher gets an attorney like Bruce to call them out. So many abuses of power. Best wishes for her to get help she needs, if she even needed it.

Karma gonna get her.
@@maryhurley5884AMEN! She is a horrible, nosy, judgmental, busy body that probably has more secrets than anyone in that town!
I was arrested in 2017 for a very minor crime too; but the news picked up the story. I believed who they portrayed me as and hated myself. It took a couple years to realize that I’m not a bad guy; just made a minor mistake. And I appreciate you defending her for saying she’s not a bad person; we all commit crimes. Just most of us don’t get caught.
AMEN !!! NONE OF US ARE PERFECT!!!
We don’t all commit crimes, but being berated by the news for something very minor is awful. They don’t care how bad they made you feel or your life, public didn’t need to be warned. Just wanted ratings
My cousin was arrested for multiple counts of murder after a house party he was at turned into a shootout. He had nothing to do with it, just wrong place and wrong time. Fled the house party once shots started going off and got stopped leaving by cops coming in, and he just happened to be wearing the same color shirt that someone reported one of the shooters wearing. So he got arrested. Woke up the next morning to a bunch of calls and texts, looked up the news article about it and they were reporting that the police said my cousin was in a gang and it was a gang shootout. First off my cousin isn’t in a gang and the second biggest thing was the gang they claimed he was in straight up doesn’t exist. Like it was entirely a made up name. The funny thing too is my cousin is from the projects there’s real gangs where he’s from, but instead they claimed he was from some 1950’s sounding hoodlum gang. I was horrified, I figured if they are already making stuff up to build a case against my cousin then he’s done for. Well thankfully they dropped the charges a few days after, because he didn’t do anything besides wear a shirt at the wrong time. Crazy to see how the police and media can lie on people and most just take them at face value.
Thank you !
Excellent content 🙂
As the daughter of a teacher I can promise you that it was one of those 3 staff members stood behind her who "grassed" her UP. Bullying is RIFE within the teaching profession to the point where at least in this country (UK) most of the best teachers are either dead (some by suicide) or moved on from the profession a looooooooong time ago. It's video's like this that prevent me from following in my late mothers footsteps to become a teacher and completing my PGCE. Teacher's do not get paid enough for this!!! Her colleagues where supposed to have her back are teachers not human also? Have people forgotten how hard it was during the virus? If I am blessed with children I will home school all of mine myself and perhaps its time that people took responsibility for their children's learning because this is not it. This school if they truly cared about the children's welfare they would have handled this in house, all her colleagues wanted was to humiliate and embarrass this woman like high performing alcoholic's don't exist. As for the police as black woman on this planet they are just doing what they always do. Thank you Bruce for teaching people about their rights because this could NEVER be me. If in doubt ask for a LAWYER!!
I believe it was the lady that kept making sure she would be arrested as she stated very annoyed like " so she isn't going to be arrested for this " bet it was the lady in white
@MRRBPOOL, what makes you so sure her Teammates haven't tried to intervene? My mother taught for 45 yrs, there were always 3 to 4 teachers per grade level. They were a unit, trying to work out any problems before taking it to their principal.
Oklahoma is especially awful because they are one of the top three states for below average teacher pay. They are actually experiencing a teacher shortage crisis, much worse than the rest of the country as a result. I looked this woman up, and she wasn't even making 40k, with almost 10 years on the job. That's awful.
@@barbedwire_lace2160probably because this woman is high functioning and if anyone had come to her first to try and “work it out” then she would’ve known immediately who called the police. This is a case of a nosy school employee who loves to gossip about what she THINKS everyone else is doing and now she will go brag she had this poor woman arrested! I pray this gets thrown out immediately when they see she was never mirandized, she had an illegal search of her things, the arrest knowing her child was a 3rd grader there was for sure overkill and unnecessary. I am angry that this poor woman who most likely has suffered from this disease for years is being treated like a criminal instead of like a person in need of rehabilitation and recovery.
Grassed her up? Are you 12??
She was drinking on the Job, I don't agree how this went down but if she didn't have alcohol in her system she wouldn't be in trouble.
This makes me so angry. They completely mishandled this and I hope she gets a lawyer and sues the crap out of them. This is not only unjust, this is manipulation. The harm they are causing not only her life, but her children, her family, and all the kids. I hope she gets justice and can clear her name. She was respectful and calm. Seems like a nice lady.
She was probably a good teacher too that the kids liked. That can be a reason for resentment from other teachers. I was a substitute teacher for a year in Florida and the kids liked when I was called to sub. The other teachers were envious of that and one of them convinced a kid to say I had inappropriately touched them on the PE field. A social services lady was called to interview me and I just laughed at her when she asked me what happened. I had no idea what she was talking about. Luckily I had a friend who was a regular teacher on the staff outside with me who knew it was BS because she saw every minute of interaction I had with the kids that day. She told that lady straight out the kid lied. I didn't sub much after that. By my own choice.
