Maybe it’s time to rethink putting 23 year old teachers in High School classes. This kid wanted her bad. Bad enough that if he couldn’t have her. Nobody could.

I agree he most liked wanted her and she rebuked him.

..but aren't you blaming the victim by saying she should not be teaching in HS?

“Don’t know, but a pic at the link seem to show that Mom is caucasian.”

If you mean that pic where he’s wearing a white jumpsuit, that is his attorney, I believe.

Just like my Air Force learned when it put 23 year old E-5s in charge of 18 year old female basic trainees. Stupid, short-sighted, naive.

They must have changed the pictures.

Does anyone know why he really left Tennessee? And what his school history was there?

I remember a 14 year old who committed a murder near here 46 years go.

He and his whole family were mean. I never saw one of them smile. They are the only people I felt the presence of evil the first time I saw one of the boys.

The murder was so bad the 14 year old was tried as an adult and is still in prison.

Then another boy I knew committed a double murder in Oklahoma. Was tried and sentenced to death.

Then one day the prison officials realized his execution date was passed and they had forgotten to execute him. So he was resentenced to life w/o parole.

The dedicated math teacher, 24, had asked Chism to stay after school so she could help him prep for an upcoming test, The Boston Globe reported Thursday afternoon.

A student, Rania Rhaedaoui, said she was in Ritzer’s algebra class during last period along with the suspect.

“She saw him drawing during class and she just said to him, ‘I didn’t know you could draw,’” Rhaedaoui, a 14-year-old freshman, told The Globe.

“I sit really close to him, so I could hear,” she said.

The girl said she then heard Ritzer ask Chism to stay late.

“She just said, ‘Can you stay after with me?’ He just gave a nod.”

“There was a test coming up, and she wanted to know if he had any questions on learning equations,” Rhaedaoui said.

When I click the link at the top of this thread it must be taking me to a different story from the one that you’re seeing.

I found this image:

And, yes, she does look Caucasoid.

If Boston was ‘strong’; the state would have the death penalty.
