No sexual gratification, so no criminal charges yet

A 10-year-old Atlanta-area boy was forced to kiss and lick his teacher's toes.
And though the teacher, Jody Kilpatrick of Temple Elementary School in Carroll County, has apologized for the incident, a preliminary investigation found no criminal intent since she apparently received no sexual gratification from the physical contact.
The child told investigators his classmates physically restrained him and forced him to kiss his teachers feet and the teacher went along with the abuse.
"Ms. Kilpatrick asked [my son], did he want to see her toes, and he was, like, okay, I'll look at your toes," explained Denise Strozier, the boy's mother. "So, a student that was his friend and another student took his hands and put them down, behind his back, and she stood there and allowed these children to push my son to the ground, and he licked her toes. And she gave him candy."
Later, the teacher, as well as one of the students, signed the child's yearbook, with messages openly joking about what happened that day.
Chief Deputy Brad Robinson told a local TV news crew that investigators have concluded, preliminarily, that the teacher's intent was not criminal because there is no evidence she sought to derive any sexual gratification, which he said is key to prosecutors seeking to prove wrongdoing in cases involving physical contact between teachers and children.
But Strozier wants the teacher fired.
"Outrage doesnt begin to describe how I feel right now," she said. "Its like a game to her. Its a joke to her."
Robinson believes Strozier's complaint is an issue for the school board to address rather than the sheriff's office.
The Carroll County school superintendents office is investigating, and declined to comment.
The Georgia Professional Standards Commission's code of ethics for teachers states "An educator should demonstrate conduct that follows generally recognized professional standards." Unethical conduct includes "committing any act of child abuse" and "encouraging an inappropriate physical relationship."
"I don't know what to say. I'm just literally dumb-founded that this has happened in my son's school," Strozier said.
The Carroll County district attorneys office will make the final decision on whether to indict the teacher later this month. The school board will decide whether to discipline her.

If folks don't want to mess with me, they shouldn't mess with my kids.
The adult in this situation should have stopped it. She not only failed to do so, she actively participated in it. So far, the other "adults" have failed to correct the problem or provide any consequence to this action.
Besides, as a pregnant mother of three, I would have a much better chance of a hung jury or acquittal on the "lioness protecting her cubs" defense, than the strapping linebacker that I married.
Does she work for Neverland Unified?
more importantly, does she look like salma hayek?
Probably just a prank.
In bad taste, but still just a prank.
See post #78. monday puts it right.
I was watching a special on tv the other day about vigilante justice. A little boy was molested by his karate teacher over a period of a couple of years (I think it was). The karate teacher eventually kidnapped him and dyed the boys hair black to disguise him. They caught the guy and took the boy back to his family. On the day the instructor was taken to court in handcuffs, the tv news video cameras were rolling and caught, in living color, the boy's dad standing at some payphones and when the perp came by he turned around, raised a gun and shot that SOB right in the head.
The district attorney wouldn't take this case to court, she said there wasn't a jury in the world that wouldn't side with the dad. The guy got off with a slap on the wrist.
When the dad was asked if he would do it again, he said yes.
I know of a case on Long Island back in the mid 1980's. A foster couple opened their home to 6 month old baby girl. The "birth mother" (use that term loosely) had beaten this little baby and burned her with cigarettes.
The girl thrived under the foster parents' care until she was 5 years old. The foster parents loved this girl and tried to adopt her, but the court shortly thereafter handed her back to her "birth mother." Within a few months, that POS had beaten the girl to death and stuffed her body in a stove.
The foster mother paid for the girl's funeral, her headstone, everything. When the "birth mother" came up for trial, the foster mother met her on the courthouse steps with a gun and unloaded it into her. Dead on the spot.
She got 6 months in a halfway house, and folks were arguing that was too much time.
Wow, good for the foster mother. Did they get that on video?
On that vigilante justice special, the karate teacher/pedophile's brother was on, talking about how his brother never got a fair trial. I was wishing the dad would shoot him, too.
