What if they stole the same items from a small Mom and Pop store?

“...like baking cookies for the faculty in the home ec classroom and then serving them to the faculty in their classrooms during class.”

One of the 1st rules of teaching, don’t eat food prepared by students.

A Class C misdemeanor is what, the equivalent of a ticket for jaywalking? I doubt that's going to doom anyone's chances for success in life. And these "perps" being juveniles, I believe their records are expunged after a time anyway.

Part of the reason these types of activities are invigorating is because of the risk. With risk, sometimes you lose. This time they lost.

‘Summon the police to handle something which could have been dealt with with maybe just an hour of detention.’

‘I’m more concerned about what police department would extend any efforts on this case. Is all other crime in the city solved that they’ve enough time to seek out a cookie monster?’

Send their parents a bill for the consumed animal crackers and pretzels or to replace the consumed bounty.

Oh, these cookies would be closely supervised by faculty, from beginning to end!

Besides, the cookies themselves aren’t the object.

Good thing they are working on a prison reform bill or these hardened criminals might face 25 year sentences for their horrible crimes.

Probably their families are some of the few Republicans in the Austin area. While I agree this probably will not effect any job search, or college applications, just forgetting about this in 5-10 years and not mentioning just might get Bob Mueller charge you with lying to the FBI./ Sarcasm off/
Seriously though, it isn’t the act that might effect them, it is forgetting it in a few years when you go for some government security clearance or LEO job. Background checks just might talk to some of the a**holes at this school. And not mentioning (forgetting) it just might not look so good to some people.

If they want to steal, they should go into politics. That is what prisons are for, the Government doesn't like competition.

Back around 2004 when I was working at my company’s corporate headquarters in Troy, MI, somebody stole the microwave from the coffee room and lunch area. It turned out to be the guy who was installing the new security system throughout the offices......LOL!

Surveillance cameras in faculty lounge?

They use'm for rerunning the sex scenes, faculty with faculty, with students, with animals...whatever.

Just don't eat the animal... crackers.

The Front Hole involved in this is going to be a REAL Front Hole in college and later life.

He should find out where she's at and rat her out to her fellow students [carefully, of course].

Misdemeanor theft charges are not the end of the world. Clearly this helicopter parent discovered he couldn’t find a justification for his miscreant’s actions so now they are picking on his child. If said miscreant is a student, he would know that the lounge is not for students and that the pretzels weren’t his. The judge is most likely to make him do some community service with a deferred plea unless there is more to this little miscreant’s history. If there is a policy excluding students from the lounge, the school could have pressed for felony burglary. It looks like the school wants to instill respect for property not yours and daddy wants keep his miscreant from taking responsibility.

But, seriously don’t those things actually belong to the students since their parents paid for them? Unless they were actually purchased by a teacher (whose every penny comes from the parents in the first place).

“Unless they were actually purchased by a teacher (whose every penny comes from the parents in the first place).”


If they bought it with their own money the kids had no right to it. Period.
