Those were terrible moments for the little boy. He was tormented by his teacher and her assistants and locked in a room without food or drink. Eventually, his distress was so great that the five-year-old put his own feces in his mouth and began drinking his urine. The teacher Melody L.* (47) and her two assistants Tarah T.* (33) and Augusta C.* (27) are said to be the culprits.
The three women allegedly assaulted the boy last year. Now they have to answer for endangering children, broadcaster ABC reports. While the two assistants were on leave, the horror teacher was allowed to continue teaching at another school. L. and her accomplices were finally arrested in November.
The parents of the new school have been informed of the incident in a letter. “In an effort to be fully transparent, we would like to notify our families of an incident that occurred yesterday,” it said. A teacher was arrested and is now on leave. Since this is a continuous process, nothing further can be said about it.
“This is worrying”
Many parents are concerned and want to know how such a teacher got the new job in the first place. A mother who has a 6-year-old daughter in school tells ABC she is afraid to send her daughter to school. “You send children to school to protect them. And the school hires a woman whose background apparently has not been thoroughly checked and who has hurt a child. That’s worrisome.”
According to a spokesperson for Liberty ISD, the matter was immediately reported to the police and an investigation has been launched.
Too little in the eyes of concerned parents. You are restless. The fact that such a person is hired at all means that the candidates are not carefully screened. Why the three women made the little boy’s life hell is unclear. You must now answer to the court. (lrc)
