When 13-year-old eighth grader, Danesiah Neal, tried to spend a 2 Dollar Bill at lunch at Christa McAuliffe Middle School, she was detained and threatened with a felony!
It gets worse! The 2 Dollar Bill investigation had to go all the way to the bank to get solved!

I guess it’s a sign of our age, that we remember $2 bills and nobody else does.
We thought the $2 bills were stupid at the time.

Get Sharptongue! It’s a case of paying while black!
(Actually, official stupidity and ignorance strikes people of every race, but since the vic is in this case black, why not use every available resource to make the bad guys miserable?)
Just WOW!!!
It’s insane. I posted an article about another counterfeit case in this same ISD.
At the very minimum, this girl should get the same degree of apology and special treatment that Clock Boy was given.
It really takes a ‘Special Kind of STUPID’ to be an educator these days...........and apparently a police officer as well......................

I always thought that the rendering of Jefferson on the $2 bill looked more like Buddy Ebsen. Weeee Doggies!
I guess it’s a sign of our age, that we remember $2 bills and nobody else does....
A friend of mine would get a bunch of them and give them out in tips when he went to Vegas. Back in the day.
Actually it was the age of the bill, 1953, that when the pen they run across to see if it is counterfeit did not produce the correct results.
Yep, everyone gets crappy service at Denny's, but when it happened to a black, batten down the hatches and lawyer up! The victim police are already on their way to this one.
This is the second story on counterfeiting out of this district this week. They had a couple fake bills passed in the local schools and have gone all high and right on it.
my father (born in 1923) calls them “she notes”.
I asked him why - he said they are like women - once you get one, you want to get rid of it.
1-2-5 is the sequence of our money, and has been for a long time. 1-2-5-10-20-50-100. The 500 and 1000 bills have not been in circulation for a long time. Had she tried to use a $50 (Grant) bill they would probably have done the same thing, since they are not very common. $2 bills haven’t been very common, (except at race tracks?), for a while, but people SHOULD KNOW BETTER, ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE COLLEGE EDUMACATED...............(sic)
Think that is Buddy.
Common core stupidity all the way up the line. There are people who should be fired for this level of incompetence/stupidity.
Proof that government has far too much power. That power makes it possible for incompetent idiots to destroy the lives of innocent people.
This doesn’t stop here. You have to sue their f*ck!ng a$$es off! Forget the apology. Forget resignations. This is grounds for significant damages. The school and the police need to be forced to pay a few million dollars to the girl and the girl’s family.
The worst thing in the world is a stupid fascist with power.
That is a Series 1953A United States Note, not a run-of-the-mill Federal Reserve Note.
In decent shape, they’re worth about $5, and uncirculated they are around $30.
The School owes the little girl some change...
