A rather interesting story. It was interesting to me that a violent thug could ruin the life of a productive member of society. My wife is an MPS teacher and she has seen some pretty demented shit. There is little to no teaching occurring in any MPS high school. Any parent sending their kids to MPS are committing child abuse. IT is a violent sociopathic environment where the predators have complete and total power.

MILWAUKEE -- 39-year-old Jasmine Pennix of Milwaukee was charged on Friday afternoon, April 22nd with one count of physical abuse of a child. This in relation to an incident that happened at Bay View High School on Wednesday, April 20th. The charge comes with a maximum penalty of six years in prison and $10,000 in fines if Pennix is convicted.

Pennix made his initial appearance in court in this case on Friday. Probable cause was found for Pennix to stand trial in this case. A preliminary hearing was scheduled for May 10th.

Cash bond was set at $2,500 -- which Pennix posted, and he was released from custody. He was ordered to have no contact with the victim in this case.

According to the criminal complaint, several boys in a biology class at Bay View H.S. were "ripping on each other." The complaint indicates the boy who was pushed by Pennix "got into an argument with (Pennix)." Pennix then "became upset and pulled the back of the chair that (the teen) was sitting on, causing (the teen) to fall to the floor."

And here is more on the "student" he assaulted.

Police made an arrest following a rash of car thefts from auto dealers this week. And the suspect they took into custody has been in the public eye before.

Officers said the teen recorded while being shoved over a desk at Bay View High School by a teacher's aid last month was involved in a theft from Amato Hyundai in Milwaukee.


The aide was charged last month in connection to the video, but the 15-year-old boy he is accused of shoving has his own, extensive criminal record.

The teen was arrested Monday after police said seven young men and boys broke in to the dealership and drove off with seven cars. Some of the vehicles were recovered.


The incident recorded at Bay View High School took place only two days after the teen was arrested for a separate offense – trying to steal a pizza delivery driver’s car.


“This kid just takes off with me hanging on for dear life from my car window,” delivery driver Erick Martinez said.


He told WISN 12 News reporter Nick Bohr last month that he was able to reach into his car and punch the boy to stop him. At the time, the teen was on an ankle monitor for an armed robbery a few weeks earlier.

I heard on the radio how the kid kicked the teacher and taunted him. In addition there are two witnesses who said the kid and his friends had planned to provoke the teacher into assaulting them. I couldn't find references to it on the internet so I don't know what source the DJs were using.

I'd give the teacher a medal and put the kid in prison for 6 years...seems to me that he's anxious to get there anyway.

How do you know that both teacher and student aren't monsters? How were you able with selective data to take sides?

I have no idea how the student was not incarcerated already. How could he walk free after stealing cars when he was on probation? Huge failing of the juvenile court system.

Any parent sending their kids to MPS are committing child abuse.

If you can't afford private school and can't afford the cost and risk of moving what choice do you have?

There is no case for a teacher to be "provoked" into a violent reaction unless said reaction is self defense from imminent bodily harm.

Without question. He shouldn't be allowed to teach again. I suspect that he already had a reputation for having a temper too, hence why the students targeted him for provocation.

I do kind of feel like the criminal charges shouldn't be worse than they'd be if the man wasn't the student's teacher and this didn't happen in a school. I don't think that the incident was an abuse of the teacher's power or position, if anything it's more like the students abused their position.

agreed.

the man should NEVER teach again. I also feel the charges should be dropped in light of people coming foreword.

Wasn't the student kicking him just prior to the teacher taking him to the floor? If that is truly the case, that's self defense...no? It was a setup from the get-go.

I don't know what happened earlier but there's no way the part that was caught on video could be construed as self defense.

Lordy stuff sure has changed since I was in HS. We had more than a couple of the male teachers, and one in particular, that couldn't F'ing wait for a fight to start so they could 'break it up'. Sh1t, when the one showed up (his name escapes me), everyone knew that the fight was over, because if it wasn't, it was soon going to turn into a slaughter...in the teachers favor haha. :)

I feel sorry for young men now, it's such a F'd up time to grow up in. Look at the men-lite/SJW/Progressive that society is churning out now. These young guys are either now hyper aggressive wannabes who society does its best to never keep in check (so perhaps some Reality will have a chance of seeping in), or, socially engineered Beta who get petted on back of head and told, Good Beta, kowtow to anyone who comes your way with a whine and/or grievance. WTF...

I viewed it as well. The teacher's behavior seems pretty shocking at first blush. And perhaps this was totally unjustified, a fit of rage after the students verbally provoked him. The problem is that the video starts the second the teacher pushes the student down. We literally do not know what happened even 3 seconds before.

Agree. It's hard to imagine someone getting that angry in a nanosecond. I wish the video showed what led up to the shoving...but I imagine that it was already well planned when to start recording the contrived incident.

Hopefully they get access to the phone the video was taken on. CLEARLY it shows editing as it starts the instant the teacher assaults the student and I'm sure there is much more to this video that you can't see.

Being a teacher is difficult, often you can't do anything against students who are misbehaving simply because the student can say whatever against the teacher and know it will cause the teacher to look bad rather than the student. I've heard of teachers being physically assaulted and fearing to defend themselves because it could be implied that they were simply fighting the student.

hahahahahahahahahahahaha... ok, that's good, you calling someone out on using absolutes. Good stuff mikey, good stuff..
"Never a case" is absolute. "Liberals are always" isn't. You guys create these narratives in your heads and act as if they are proven fact.

Remember, you are trying to talk sense to someone stuck on absolute stupid. He and mikey are neck and neck to see which one can blame their go to "liberals" on everything. Not some liberals, most liberals... but ALL liberals. Just watch them go...

Maybe it's just me, but the fact there was a male teacher named Jasmine Pennix to begin with is just a bit, um, odd.

If the teacher was attacked by a student who had a violent history including doing this to someone with an ice chunk just a few months ago:

Then the teacher should be able to sue the living shit out of the school system for knowingly, intentionally, placing him / her into a dangerous work environment.

You made a mistake, its best to just own up to it. He didn't say 100% of liberals and he later explained what he meant, but NOOOOO, your assumption is the truth.
