I’d say this kid is S— outta luck.
Literally.
Too many episodes of That 70’s show.
Because of a little laxative in a cake? Not sure I buy it. Wonder if they ended up in the hospital before or after they discovered what was in the cake.
Hey jack, tampering with people’s food ain’t funny.
This is an upsetting story. What the kids did was stupid, which is not at all unusual for 17 year old seniors. But on the otherhand this is Brownsville, where most kids don’t get to be 17 year old seniors graduating from high school. I hope the teachers are ok, and that the prosecution is dropped for community service. We don’t need another black kid who has possibilities ending up in the slammer.
Makes up for the shit I’ve heard some high school teachers spew. A bit of diarreha is good for them.
Ya think?
Somebody was stealing a high school class mates lunch out of his locker. His mom made a cake with a laxative in the frosting and put a couple of pieces in his lunch. The thefts stopped.
I read another version of this story a few days ago, and the teachers were quoted as saying the cake tasted like insecticide.

One of my aunts “took” another aunt’s (her sister) boyfriend away- as the story goes my grandmother gave the scorned sister the lecture about how you can’t take a man away if he doesn’t want to go and told her to basically suck it up and be polite to them when he was at the house. She very sweetly made them homemade fudge with ex-lax in it. The boy never dated either one of them again and they forgave each other so it made a terriffic family story. As the story goes my grandmother used what happened to explain the lesson that actions have consequences and the aunt that laced the fudge didn’t get into trouble.

No sympathy. Lock his ass up.
Send the little dirt-bags to prison. Let them rot there.
Seriously.

Evidently the "Brooklyn School for Global Studies" doesn't do a very good job of teaching career planning.
His first step on to a "better life" didn't work out.....
Let’s not forget MTV’s “High School Stories” in all this. Not that the show should be an excuse for the pranksters - although his remorse seems genuine, especially how it has hit his mom. But rather remembered for the message the show gave to its highly manipulative audience. I wonder how that episode ended ... did it contain the lesson that prosecution followed prank? Pro’ly not. Aiding and abetting? It would be nice if the teachers realized MTV was the deep pocket in all this.
And what of Grace Slick's effort to dose Nixon's coffee (or was it tea) with a massive quantity of LSD?
John Lennon plotted the same sort of attack and yet his defenders wonder why the government had him under surveillance.
