Some little girl at a North Carolina school accused a classmate of stealing $20 from her. So, how did the school handle it? Why, they strip-searched her classmate. He’s a third grader, and he didn’t steal anything. Based on the story at Fox News, there was no evidence that the child stole anything other than the word of another student.
Justin Cox, ten, a student at Union Elementary School in Clinton, was ordered to strip to his T-shirt and boxer shorts on June 1 after a girl student accused him of taking $20, WRAL TV reported.
He told his mom Clarinda Cox that a girl dropped the cash and he picked it up and returned it to her.
She told the TV station, “If I felt he needed to be searched, I would have brought him into the bathroom. You could have had a witness in the bathroom with me. I would have searched my son.”
Female assistant principal, Teresa Holmes, did not find the money, and hugged Justin and apologized to him afterwards, she claimed.
Holmes said the money was later found underneath the lunchroom table.
It gets even worse from there. The female principle “rubbed her fingers around inside of his underwear.” But according to the school district spokesperson, it’s all okay because a male janitor was present for the frisking. I’m sure the parents in that district feel better knowing a janitor will be present when their elementary school children are groped by people in authority, based on nothing more than the claim of another elementary school child.
Here’s a video report from KSDK.
The school administration obviously is out of control and out of step with society and has assumed the role of judge and jury!
The boy’s mother must assert herself to ensure that such wrong-doing is exposed, corrected, and stopped completely!

…”and out of step with society”…
No Joseph, the sad truth is society has been allowing this to go on and has become enured to statist power plays.
Look at the DHS, the TSA, the militarization of our police forces, Society loves the safety, and ones persons rights mean nothing compared to the safety of the collective.
The outrage is mostly showboating for the feel good effect and little if anything will be done. The state can’t do enough wrong to incite the average person to action.
But I agree with you, this is wrong, on every conceivable level. But as is plainly shown by the lack of public support, the state has already won. Which neither says, or implies that I believe there is no value in resistance, it just says the battle (which this is) will be an uphill endeavor.
Well-loved. Like or Dislike:
