58 Year Old Teacher Convicted of Four Felonies for Showing “The ABCs of Death” to High Schoolers

“A substitute high school teacher faces substantial prison time after she screened a horror movie for teenaged students. Sheila Kearns, 58, was charged with five felonies…”

This is potentially the STUPIDEST conviction I have ever seen: adults, parents, authority figures, first of all, vastly underestimate the sensitivity of high school students: most of these kids had probably already seen the movie, –the rest of them probably watch Internet porn regularly.

Second: there are some extremely disturbing moments in the film, but most classes run about 45 minutes, so the likelihood that the kids have seen the entire movie, –and the worst bits are toward the end, –is very small. Third: the woman is old as hell, there is no way she meant to do this. It was obviously an accident, and yes, the woman is a complete moron, but she doesn’t deserve any prison time.
