Teen accused of killing classmate was ‘smiling and laughing’ during attack, reports say

A Michigan teen accused of fatally stabbing a classmate was “smiling and laughing” during the attack, according to reports.

Two dozen students watched in horror as Tanaya Lewis, 17, killed Danyna Gibson, 16, with a kitchen knife in a classroom Wednesday at Fitzgerald High School in Warren, Mich., Fox 2 Detroit reported Friday.

“Witnesses said the defendant was smiling and laughing as she was chasing the victim,” Detective Donald Seidel of the Warren Police Department told a judge Friday, WXYZ-TV reported Saturday.

One blow penetrated Danyna’s heart, the station reported.

Prosecutors said Lewis screamed, “I’m going to kill her” as a teacher tried to shove her out of the classroom, according to the station.

Police said there was animosity between the two straight-A students over a boy.

Lewis is being held without bail on a capital murder charge.

She said "yes" to the judge when asked if she understood that she is facing life behind bars without parole.

That occurred to me too, something like the class egalitarian might be the student closest to average, but I posted on the chance that it was some new usage that I didn’t know.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Pretty hard to blame a kid who has never been held to account for anything in her life.

Now I may be wrong in this assumption, but it’s my take that too many young Black kids are taught to be strong and forceful at the disregard for doing anything wrong.

If you want to do it, don’t let anyone stop you.

They don’t respect teachers, the police, the government, or each other. They will kill each other on a whim.

Not all the kids are like this, but too many are like this.

Look at Chicago on any given weekend. Those kids have been told to do as they please. Well, they are...

Should be eye opening for those of you who have never taught in predominantly black achools. For those, like me, who have, this will sound all too familiar.

I saw this couple on our local news, but I didn’t catch whether it was the parents of the victim or the assailant. Do you know which it is?

You can bet the boy was egging the girl on. Not that it excuses her at all.

The victim was on student council, robotics club, color guard, and in several other substantive groups. She appeared to be an achiever and I would not doubt in the least she was an A student. She seemed like the type of student any teacher would love to have in their classroom. The perp, on the other hand, appears to be trouble. I can almost tell the story of what transpired without actually knowing the story because it’s all too common, and it involves a good girl who got mixed up with a bad boy who was the boyfriend of a bad girl who got provoked into attacking the new girlfriend by the boyfriend because it stoked his ego.

The most common way is to simple change the "Points Possible" score to the high score.

Most teachers have trouble with mathematics.

To save the children, we must force manufacturers to put serial numbers on all kitchen knives, and create a registration database. Everyone must turn in non-serialized kitchen knives immediately! /s

This is horrible. All the liberal schools really do is pander to future criminals. There are no consequences for bad behavior until the police are called. Then they wonder why the schools are full of more and more future criminals, and why things escalate to the point where police need to be called. The liberals don’t notice the quiet students who are the victims of all this. If they do notice them, they sacrifice them and tell them they have to deal with the criminal behavior of other students.

Liberals blame guns, parents, etc., but it’s really decades of liberal rule in the schools that has led to this.

“The liberals don’t notice the quiet students who are the victims of all this. If they do notice them, they sacrifice them and tell them they have to deal with the criminal behavior of other students.”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The liberals gaslight the students by telling them that school is good for them and prepares them for the “real” world. How's that for scrambling a kid's psyche?

In the **REAL** world adults in the work place would be winning millions in court for abuse that is a fraction of that found in almost any government school.

The BT-1100 can’t be stopped.

No kidding. I swear, if Tommy didn’t provide film clips of the stuff he was talking about, I wouldn’t believe it. I’m black and I never heard of such behavior as goes on in some of these communities. And blacks wonder why whites think of them as ‘other.’ They are. They don’t even act like normal people.

Girls have always fought over boys; boys have fought over girls. You don’t have to kill someone over it. And in the classroom. I’m not offended when this is called jungle behavior, because it is.

I’ve heard of valedictorian and salutatorian of a class, but not egalitarian. Is this a new usage of the word, and could you define it for me? Not being snarky here, just trying to learn something new to me. Thanks

No, not a new use. Unless you count autocorrect changing a word on me after I had it spelled the way I wanted before I pressed Post. Happens whenever I use my tablet instead of my PC. That's why I took so long to respond; I'm on the PC now.
