Two teachers caught taunting disabled boy, 10, as 'gross' and 'disgusting' after his mother bugged his wheelchair with recording device

Two Alabama teachers were caught cruelly taunting and abusing a 10-year-old boy who has celebral palsy after the boy’s mother attached an audio recorder to his wheelchair.

The shocking recording captures two voices chiding Jose Salinas for his ‘disgusting’ drooling and reveals he was left alone with no instruction for long periods of time.

They deserve to be fired, post-haste.

[LyinLibs]

Reminds me of Omoslem mocking the Special Olympics on Jay Leno’s show.

Just after a server beating.

[Timber Rattler]

But within days the teachers were returned to their positions so Salinas and other parents took their children out of the school in protest.

Just awful...I hope the parents get a good lawyer and sue the socks off both the teachers and the school system.

Sometimes it seems like the only news organizations that will cover American gov’t employees behaving badly is the British press.

countdown til the teachers file suit for unauthorized electronic eavesdropping....three...two...

This is what happenes when we closed the hospitals out of compassion. We have incompitent union hacks treating kids with severe medical conditions, when these kids need highly trained medical personell to work with them. The other issue is kids with minor, yet disabling medical problems are lumped in with those who can't function at all in society and never get the real challenging education and care they need.

[Jonty30]

I’d be fine with you using a server to beat them.

“The teachers accused, Drew Faircloth and Alicia Brown, have been put on administrative leave from Wicksburg High School, Alabama, where Jose is in the fourth grade.”

High school and fourth grade? I’m a bit confused by this.

[Slump Tester]

Isn’t Alabama a right-to-work state? If so, then I don’t think a teacher’s union is the problem. The head of the school district must be protecting the 2 POS teachers.

[doc1019]

Oops ... severe, even though using a server to do it would be just fine. LOL!

[fortheDeclaration]

I am sure the Teacher Union will rally to their defense.

Can you imagine an adult doing such a thing?

[Bob]

Oops ... severe, even though using a server to do it would be just fine. LOL!

Especially large rack-mount servers dropped from a tall building. :=)

[Jonty30]

I know I wouldn’t.

I don’t know if I’d have the internal skills to deal with somebody so severly disabled, on a daily basis for 8 hours a day, but I know laughing at them is something I wouldn’t do.

[JRandomFreeper]

I’d be fine with you using a server to beat them.

Are you talking about a quad CPU HP 1U rackmount? Or Juan, who just got off work from the restaurant and is having a beer with me? Because Juan is shaking his head no.

[doc1019]

Amen!

[Jonty30]

My preference is something that you’re about to take offline anyway.

Why waste?

[JRandomFreeper]

Ah... the ancient rack in the corner with the 4U single CPU servers loaded with MS. No-one will miss it.

Or the plonkers that made fun of the kid.

They do need to feel some shame and some pain.

When ostensible adults (in age only) do this, it's because they haven't grown up. Or are just too mean to live.

AL is a one party state...and there must be an expectation of privacy.

Don’t think there can be a lawsuit.
