Report: Girl, 11, suspended after she recorded teacher bullying another student [View all]

FORT PIERCE, Fla. - A Samuel Gaines Academy student was suspended this week after she says she was trying to defend a classmate.

Brianna Cooper, 11, says she took an audio recording in class of what she says depicted her teacher bullying a student.

Instead of receiving praise, Cooper says she was suspended for five days when the school said her video was illegal.

"I thought I did the right thing, but I guess I just got suspended," Cooper said.

Cooper says one of her science teachers was being mean to a student, so she took out her cellphone and started recording her teacher.

In the recording, Cooper says you hear the teacher say, "Don't let size fool you. I will drop you….You don't know me, that's all I'm saying. So, don't give me no look."
