Special Ed Teacher Accused Of Making Student Masturbate In Front Of Class [View all]
Not The Onion!
http://elitedaily.com/news/special-ed-teacher-accused-abuse/1451941/
A Long Island, New York middle school is under investigation for allegedly covering up one teacher’s repeated physical and sexual abuse of special education students, The Huffington Post reports.
The accused, Lisa Weitzman, teaches special needs students in the Long Beach Public School system.
A lawsuit filed by Weitzman’s alleged victims claims the teacher made one student masturbate in front of the class, gave another a lap dance, and on several occasions, sent “severely disabled” students into time out in the bathroom for extended periods of time.
The suit also alleges Weitzman used physical abuse as discipline, stomping on pupils’ feet while wearing high heels and even binding students at the wrists and ankles with zip ties and duct tape to control them.
