Pontiac, MI: Teacher charged with assault

July 6th, 2009 · No Comments · No Verdict

Pontiac, MI is the latest city to follow the 3 step shuffle:

  1. Install a pricey surveillance system
  2. Capture city employee doing something wrong
  3. Tax payers foot massive settlement fee

According to WXYZ:
The incident happened at Pontiac Central High School. The teen, Davion Hudson, is standing in the hallway before the start of class in the morning. His world history teacher, Bradley Thompson, walks by, and words are exchanged. The teacher then pushes Davion and then leaves. Davion called his mother and told her of the incident.

A few minutes later, the teacher comes up behind Davion and this time he grabs both of Davion's arms behind his back. Then the teacher put Davion into a choke hold and slammed him into metal doors.

When will these city employees learn to stop self-indicting themselves?
