CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. -- Police said a love letter on the social networking web site Facebook sparked an on-campus, profanity-laced fight between two teachers at Rex Hill Middle School in Rex. The altercation allegedly got so out of hand, an officer ended up arresting both instructors.
Channel 2 Action News reporter Tom Jones spent the day in Clayton County and was able to obtain the police report that detailed the love triangle that erupted into fighting and cursing in front of students.
The school district didnt have much to say about the altercation, but parents did.
Police: Teachers Fight Over Man In Front Of Students
Thats outrageous. Thats outrageous, said parent Robert Fisher. Parents and students at Rex Middle School were stunned after learning that police arrested two teachers after both got into a heated fight in front of students. I mean, what example are you showing the kids? Because when the kids get into a fight, youre ready to expel them, said parent Felicia Lyons.
According to the police report, Shaka Cobb, 32, said she and a man who teaches at the school are expecting a child together. Cobb stated that she discovered a love letter from Ebony Smith, 25, on her babys fathers Facebook account over the weekend. Cobb angrily responded back on Facebook, according to police, and when the two returned to school on Monday, a fight broke out on the eighth-grade hall. There was cursing, punches were thrown and threats to put the love letter on a blackboard for all to see, according to the police report. Children witnessed it all. Love triangles happen everywhere. But it shouldnt happen at school. Not in front of the kids, said Fisher. The officer stated he felt compelled to arrest the teachers because the altercation happened in front of the students.
Some parents said theres only one punishment for the teachers. They should be terminated to be honest with you. Kids get kicked out so they should be terminated, said Lyons. The school district placed both teachers on administrative leave with pay pending an investigation. Both teachers face disorderly conduct charges and Smith faces simple battery as witnesses described her as the aggressor.

Since this is a public school I am sure that there is a law against it, but the pregnant unmarried teacher should have been dismissed from the school when her condition became known to administrators. The same goes for the male teacher who fathered the child. To keep them on is a distraction and sets the worst kind of example for the student body. I guess that makes me sound mean.
Yeah, or Oprah!
Sounds like she can really shuck corn.
What was the letter that set Cobb off? I am in love with you. I am tired of being your every blue moon[expletive]. I just love fill in the expletives! It stretches my imagination. Cobb, who claims shes pregnant with Mr. Prince Charmings baby is reported to have posted a rather tumultuous message as well. Monday hallway it was ON.
Cobb, a language arts teacher
[Expletive], you dont want none of this and get the [expletive] off me.

Cobb, 33, teaches seventh and eighth grade language arts. Cobb did not return a phone call left at her Rex home Thursday night. Smith, who teaches family and consumer science, could not be reached.
The fight occurred the same week as Clayton school board member Trinia Garrett is scheduled to go on trial for assaulting her live-in boyfriend. Garrett, who remains on the board, is out on bond on charges of simple assault, simple battery and criminal trespass. Her trial is on the calendar for this week, but has not started yet, her attorney Herbert Adams Jr. said.

If they voted at all. But that’s not to say that votes may have been cast in their names.

I don't think Eisenhower took as much stuff ashore at Normandy as this person wants in her baby registry.

It is the rare incident like this that gives them a negative stereotype. At least, incidents like this one are incredibly rare.
BABYMAMADRAMA.
No, that's Chaka Khan, lol!
The funny part is who Shaka was. This Zulu king was more or less the African equivalent of Hitler, so this is a little like naming your newborn Adolph. His murder and tyranny was aimed almost exclusively at other black people.
Also, of course, Shaka is a boy’s name.
