Student beaten on bus; it's caught on videotape

By DANA TREEN
The Times-Union


A Landon Middle School student who took a beating that was recorded on videotape during a bus ride home last week will move to another Jacksonville school, his mother said Wednesday.

Sashemia Small said she is upset that the First Student bus driver did not stop to help her 12-year-old son, who is seen on the tape being punched by several other students for about 30 seconds.

"Even after the incident occurred he finished his route," Small said. "I don't think at any time he had control over his bus."

The victim, who is not being named by the Times-Union because he is a juvenile, will be transferred to another school, the family was told Wednesday.

"I don't feel, at any point, safe sending him back to Landon," Small said.

The victim said he thought the driver could have intervened.

"He didn't stop the boys or anything," he said. "He just let them off at their stop."

Seven middle school students have been suspended and school administrators were told Wednesday that the driver has been placed on administrative leave, school system spokeswoman Marsha Oliver said.

Oliver said First Student's policy does not allow drivers to touch students who are in fights. The name of the driver was not being released by First Student, said John Ziegler, the company's regional operations manager. He said a review of the driver's actions will take a couple of days.

"I'm reviewing the whole situation," he said.

A regional vice president with First Student met with school administrators, gave them a copy of the videotape and spoke with Superintendent John Fryer on Wednesday, Oliver said.

The incident apparently grew out of a confrontation the victim had with the main attacker, a 13-year-old student who also rides the bus, during the school day, but an administrator stepped in to stop it. The victim said the other boy accused him of something he didn't do.

The attack started after school when the 13-year-old walked to the front of the bus after it had left the school and said something to the victim. After a motioning for others near the rear of the bus to come forward, the teenager took off his sweatshirt and began punching the boy in the head, according to a police report on the tape contents. The other attackers, some as old as 15, joined in, pummeling the boy's head before returning to their seats.

Oliver said the driver indicated he was making a turn when the attack occurred and could not help the victim. In his account of what happened, the driver said he pulled over after making the turn and asked the victim if he needed help or wanted to return to the school but was told that was not necessary. After finishing the route, the driver took the tape back to the school, Oliver said.

The students who have been suspended are also not named because they are juveniles.

The victim, who has only been at Landon since moving to the school zone in December, said he tried to ignore his attacker, who he does not know.

The 20-minute video began when students got on the bus at school and ran until the final student exited at a stop, according to the report. In addition to the assault, the tape showed students standing in the aisles and between seats, talking and listening to music. Some are disruptive and acting in an unsafe manner, according to the report.

Oliver said the students who were suspended must meet with a hearing officer who will determine disciplinary action that could include expulsion.

Say teacher kicked teen

By FERNANDA SANTOS
DAILY NEWS POLICE BUREAU

A Manhattan special-ed teacher was arrested and charged with shoving a student to the ground and repeatedly kicking him because he refused to hand him a ball in gym class, police said.
Shmuel Levit, 50, is accused of assaulting the 14-year-old boy in the gym at Public School 751 in the East Village, cops said.

Levit was arrested at the school about 2 p.m. Wednesday, just after the alleged attack.

"Mr. Levit has been assigned to the principal's office, where he will perform administrative duties pending the outcome of the investigation," Department of Education spokeswoman Margie Feinberg said.

Levit was hired in 1991 and has worked at the Manhattan School for Career Development, a special education school on E. Fourth St., for six years, Feinberg said.

In another incident yesterday, cops busted 15-year-old girl at Manhattan's troubled Washington Irving High School after she allegedly attacked a school safety officer who caught her cutting class, police said.

The student broke the safety officer's index finger during a struggle on the way to the principal's office, school officials said.

The girl will be transferred to another school and faces a superintendent's suspension, Education Department spokesman Paul Rose said.

Pee rule is No. 1 gripe at school


By DEREK ROSE
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

Some New Jersey middle school students can't go when they gotta go.
A controversial new pee policy at Lawrence Middle School in Lawrenceville, N.J., is limiting pupils to just 15 bathroom breaks a month.

"It's insane," said parent Lisa Everson, 40. "I just think the administration does not know how to handle children. It's unhealthy, and it's also embarrassing for children. We're furious about all of it."

Seventh-grader Eric Waldron, 13, is worried - he has just four bathroom breaks left for the rest of the month.

"It's stupid," he said. "They say they're doing good for the school, they say it'll teach responsibility and management, but you can't manage your bathroom time. You have to go when you have to go!"

Matthew Gregory, 12, has been drinking and eating less at lunch to avoid using up his passes.

"It's pretty silly," he said. "They make us do things for no reason."

Administrators say the policy was put in place to stem discipline problems that included two bomb threats scrawled on bathroom walls in the fall.

"Of course some kids are upset because kids don't want rules," Principal Nancy Pitcher told the Trenton Times. "Some parents don't understand because they are only getting bits and pieces of the story."

Pitcher noted students may use the bathroom during a 33-minute lunch period. But kids say it's after lunch that their need is greatest.

Dag, that's not even one a day!

"It's stupid," he said. "They say they're doing good for the school, they say it'll teach responsibility and management, but you can't manage your bathroom time. You have to go when you have to go!"

That's what I'm saying. Regardless if its school, work, church, or whereever, when you gotta go, you gotta go! If you don't, you will have incident's like this (remember this HC)?

Man I remember that HC very well because she called to tell me about it and I was CTFU.

That was some funny isht.


But speaking as a former teacher, those bathroom breaks are annoying and intrusive to the instruction period when you have more than 5 in a class period. And yes it was worse after lunch. There were some students I could set my watch by as to when they would ask for the pass. Then I had like 75% of my students who NEVER asked for the pass.

Oh and you have some students who ask for the pass every class they have per day. You cannot tell me that is bladder related. That is go out in the hall and kick it time. Please believe it, I used to have hall duty.

I used to give my students 3 passes per grading period. Any left over and in my handwriting were traded in for extra credit. Of course those who never needed the EC always still had their passes and in better shape than what I gave them in, LOL.

[Honeykiss1974]

Do they still have hall monitors in school that patrolled the halls? Is this what you were CT4?

I would imagine that after being reported for loitering after so many times, that you would be restricted when it came to bathroom passes.

It really depends on several factors -- administration, teachers who are on hall duty. The ones you see roaming the most, at least in my experience, were kids who teachers wanted out of the classroom anyway.

[Lady Pi Phi]

Sorry for the hijack. But Hall monitors and hall passes must be a US thing. I never had them at all.
In elementary school we just asked permission and the teachers would let us go. Our classes weren't devided into periods anyway. We had the same teacher for all subjects.
Then in highschool most teachers just said if you need to use the bathroom just go, because it was less disruptive then everyone stopping the class to ask permission.
I also never had study hall. When I had my spare periods I was either downstairs in the basement (the only palces you could hang out during your spares were the basement or music wing) or I left the school.

All these things seem a little ridiculous to me. Although I have to agree that there are a lot of students who use their "bathroom breaks" to hang out in the halls and such.

[brickhouse492]

My mom was really strict but she always told me not to hold my water because it weakens your bladder. She said ask the teacher and if the teacher said no, just walk out of the class. I always wanted one of my teachers to say no,... but it never happened.

Girl rescued from washing machine
Monday, May 26, 2003 Posted: 2:53 AM EDT (0653 GMT)

POMONA, California (AP) -- A 2-year-old girl was rescued from a locked, running washer at a coin laundry and her mother was arrested after a surveillance tape allegedly showed her putting the child into the machine, police said.

An officer smashed the window of the machine with his baton to rescue the girl, who was "submerged in water," police Sgt. Matt Stone said.

The child was unconscious when she was pulled from the washer Saturday but breathing. She was taken to a hospital where she was listed in serious condition with cuts, scrapes, bruises. She had inhaled some water but was expected to survive, Stone said.

Her mother, Erma Osborne, 35, of Pomona, California, later was arrested for investigation of child endangerment and held on $10,000 bail.

Surveillance camera footage showed that the woman placed her daughter in one washer, then removed her and placed her in a second front-loading washer, which turned on when she closed the door, Stone said.

"She wasn't drowned but she was getting there," Los Angeles County fire Capt. Dan Ramirez said.

The machine apparently locks automatically when the wash cycle begins and does not unlock until the cycle ends, Ramirez said.

Efforts by the girl's mother and bystanders to unlock the door failed.

Teen Learns Mom Accused of His Abduction
1 hour, 55 minutes ago Add U.S. National - AP to My Yahoo!


By LINDA MASSARELLA, Associated Press Writer

LOS ANGELES - Authorities arrested the mother of a 17-year-old boy after her son saw his picture on a missing children's Web site and discovered that she was accused of abducting him from his father 14 years ago.



Acting on a Canadian-issued warrant, U.S. marshals arrested Giselle-Marie Goudreault, 45, at her home in the San Fernando Valley. She was being held without bail until Canadian authorities can extradite her on child abduction charges, authorities said.


Goudreault "was shocked and very emotional" during the Feb. 11 arrest, said Jimell Griffin, a deputy U.S. marshal in Los Angeles. The boy's father had custody of his son, and Griffin said Goudreault did not return him after a court-ordered visit.


The teen, whose identity was not released, was immediately put in a foster home.


The boy spotted his own photo, taken when he was 3, on a Canadian missing children's Web site a few months ago and told a teacher about it, authorities said. The teacher contacted police, who then confirmed the story with Canadian authorities.


Griffin said although it was Goudreault's son who initiated contact with authorities, the youth was upset at his mother's arrest and tried to comfort her while she was being led away.


Goudreault initially took her son to live in Mexico, authorities said, and she moved to the Los Angeles area in 1995. She has been remarried twice.


"They were taking her child away and she did what she had to do," Melissa Goudreault, her sister-in-law, said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press on Tuesday from her home in Red Deer, Alberta. "The family is behind her and is trying to raise money for her legal defense."
