Teachers at a school have reacted with horror to a video of their middle-aged female colleague being repeatedly punched in the face and abused by a male student.
The teenager has been arrested after a classmate filmed the profanity-laden physical attack at Parkland High School in North Salem, North Carolina.
The teacher sits motionless in the classroom as the student lands a right-handed punch to her cheek before he steps back and demands: 'Want me to hit you again?'
'I don't want it,' she replies before he repeats his demand and punches her again, this time with his left.
District Attorney Jim O'Neill said he had no authority to prosecute the thug as an adult for his assault on the teacher who has astonished investigators with her resilience.
'I still see it playing in my head,' Forsyth County Sheriff Bobby Kimbrough said. 'I'm amazed that she even showed up for work today.'
A secure custody order was issued against the boy on Tuesday for one count of communicating threats and two counts of misdemeanor assault.
DA Jim O'Neill said he could not be charged as an adult because the charges only amount to a misdemeanor so they cannot be brought to superior court.
But he warned students that they face the same consequences for attacking teachers as they would for assaulting police officers.
'We're here to see that you're never assaulted when you go to work,' he told a press conference.

she should 1) press charges, 2)get a restraining order prohibiting him from being anywhere near her, 3)sue the school for failure to maintain a safe environment, 4) file a union grievance for not maintaining a safe environment. i was threatened by a black belt and the admin told me that they could do nothing. i told them that they would keep away from me, or i would, and i would keep the local police and newspapers notified. they backed down. he was ordered to stay out of the wing where i worked while i was there.
Go watch the video. It’s only 15 seconds long.
In the entire North Carolina criminal code there is no law that can be used to jail this punk? I find that difficult to believe........................
Friend of mine’s daughter is a private home school teacher, sets her own schedule, salary, and students.
How can physically attacking and punching someone be a misdemeanor?
We need to rewrite our laws.
Joy Reid applauds this behavior.
Do I even need to look??
Is there a way to sue for their EBT credits?
If he can rush for 200 yards against Grimsley, I say let it go.
Hmmm...no mention of the race of the perp or the victim.
I don't know...the teacher's voice sounds masculine to me. And the way they took the two slaps...kind of a higher level of testosterone there..
YUPP! Its “them” again.
Forsyth County, NC, 2020 Presidential election...what did were expect...

“School principal Noel Keener told parents the students will face ‘disciplinary action’ over what she described as an ‘inappropriate and unsettling interaction’.”
Inappropriate and unsettling interaction?
This statement from the timid school principal identifies the problem; at least a lot of it.
“Tell her to get a job at a parochial school.”
My wife just did this. She taught for 35 years in public schools and had enough. She semi-retired and now teaches at a parochial school part time. The pay is terrible but the students are well behaved and she doesn’t have the the behavioral/discipline problems she encountered in public schools.
No way for students to treat dedicated communist indoctrinators...
Have her look in majority white rural districts. Those kids still have respect and values.
