22-Year-Old Substitute Teacher Performs Oral Sex On Teen On First Day Of School

A substitute teacher has been charged with first-degree sexual assault after she allegedly had oral sex with a 17-year-old student on her first day at the job.
WUSA reports:
According to police, Symone Greene, who taught an English class at Options Public Charter School in Washington, D.C., performed oral sex on the teen behind her teacher’s desk Friday while other students were attending a pep rally, WUSA reports. Friday marked the first time that Greene had worked at the school and it will likely be her last, since the teen videotaped the encounter and reportedly showed teammates and friends the footage.
The school told NBC Washington that Greene, 22, was hired as a substitute teacher through a Delaware-based contracting company. According to reports, the teen told officers that he flirted with the sub during class and that at some point the two exchanged numbers and then text messages. The teen asked Greene if she was “kinky,” according to police. She reportedly replied, “I don’t tell; I show.”
At the end of the school day, while other students were attending a pep rally, the 17-year-old reportedly went back to the classroom, and that’s when the incident took place.
Greene pleaded not guilty during her arraignment Wednesday evening, according to NBC Washington.
Wowsers, you usually don’t hear of this story line happening with black folks now do ya! Very surprising to say the least but the saddest part is that in some of these United States it is completely legal for a 22 yo to have any kind of sex with a 17yo child.In my state consenting age is 16. So though the teacher may have gotten in trouble for her actions because of her being a teacher and also doin it at school in all other aspects she would face no legal persecution. Crazy Hunh?
St. Louis Teen Vonderrit Myers Shot In Back, Autopsy Says
By The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS (AP) — An 18-year-old killed earlier this month by an off-duty St. Louis police officer was shot eight times, including six times from behind, said a forensic pathologist who performed a private autopsy Thursday.
Dr. Cyril Wecht, who has investigated the deaths of John F. Kennedy, Elvis Presley and JonBenet Ramsey, conducted the autopsy at the request of Vonderrit Myers Jr.‘s family and outlined the findings during a news conference at the funeral home that will handle Myers’ burial. The family’s attorneys said the autopsy suggests Myers was running away from the officer. Myers’ parents attended the autopsy announcement but did not comment.
“The evidence shows that the story we’ve been given by the Police Department does not match up,” one of the attorneys, Jerryl Christmas, said. “There’s no evidence that there was a gun battle going on.”
Wecht said it’s likely that Myers was initially shot six times in the back of both legs. He said another shot hit the side of the left leg, shattering his femur.
The fatal wound was to the side of Myers’ face, Wecht said.
Police have said Myers shot first at the officer. They released details of lab tests by the Missouri State Highway Patrol that showed gunshot residue on Myers’ hand, waistband and shirt. Police union leaders said the finding dispelled claims by Myers’ family that he didn’t fire at the officer, whose name hasn’t been released.
The officer’s attorney, Brian Millikan, said the private autopsy results support that account as well.
“It’s absolutely consistent with what the officer told the investigators from early on,” said Millikan, a former St. Louis police officer. “There were no shots fired when (Myers) was running away. That’s simply not true.”
Police Chief Sam Dotson has said Myers fired three shots before his gun jammed.
Millikan said Myers was shot in the back of the legs while lying on his side with a gun in his hand.
“He was propped up on his left elbow, and his legs were facing out at the policeman as he went down, but he was still holding the gun and pointing it at the policeman,” the lawyer said.
The incident spurred a round of protests similar to ones in nearby Ferguson after the fatal police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown. Both Brown and Myers were black. The officers who shot them are white. A grand jury is expected to decide by mid-November whether criminal charges will be filed against Darren Wilson, the Ferguson officer who killed the unarmed Brown.
The officer in the Myers shooting is on administrative leave.
He was on patrol as a private security guard, but wearing his police uniform and carrying his department-issued gun when the shooting occurred on Oct. 8.
Dotson has said the officer became suspicious when Myers and the men with him started to run. A chase ensued and the officer and Myers got into a physical confrontation. After Myers pulled away, Dotson said, he went up a hill and started shooting at the officer.
Police investigators attended Wecht’s news conference and served him with a subpoena to turn over his autopsy report to a grand jury reviewing the case. A police spokeswoman in response to the autopsy said any information and evidence that comes up will be included in the investigation, which local and federal prosecutors will review.
A preliminary autopsy by St. Louis Medical Examiner Dr. Michael Graham found that Myers was shot six to seven times in the lower extremities, with the fatal shot entering the right cheek. The final autopsy report hasn’t been released.
So since when can people shoot at you with their back turned to you. What I said in the beginning is more then likely the truth. That boy had a damn sandwich like the very first reports said (befire the police added in the LUGAR)!
How a hoagie become a Lugar?
Where they do that at?
Justice must prevail!
Milwaukee Family Seeks Charges In Police Shooting
Oct 27, 2014
By M.L. JOHNSON, Associated Press
MILWAUKEE (AP) — The family of a black man shot 14 times by a white police officer in a Milwaukee park marks the spot where he died with red spray paint before starting a rally and marching through city streets.
“Shame on you. People of color are people, too,” protesters chant while carrying signs declaring, “Black Lives Matter.”
The rallies are one way Dontre Hamilton’s family has kept his name in the news in the six months since his death. Smaller and more orderly than those in Ferguson, Missouri, the protests have not drawn national attention but have produced results. The man who shot Hamilton was fired, the first Milwaukee officer in decades to face such discipline in a fatal on-duty shooting.
Now the family wants more: criminal charges for the officer, and improvements in the way mentally ill people — Hamilton had schizophrenia — are treated by police and social service programs.
“They messed with the wrong family. … I’m not going to back down,” said Nate Hamilton, Dontre Hamilton’s brother.
Hamilton’s family participated in a vigil days after his April 30 death but then said little publicly as they waited out an investigation into the shooting. They wanted details about what happened and the officer disciplined. They were frustrated months later, when protests erupted in Ferguson following the shooting of a black 18-year-old, Michael Brown, by a white officer.
“We tried to be accepting and respectful of the way the system works. … Until it got to the point where the Mike Brown thing happened,” Nate Hamilton said. “Now, you know who this police officer is, you’re seeing them get information, and in Milwaukee, we’re not getting no information.”
The family joined a Milwaukee demonstration organized to support those in Ferguson, and attention quickly focused on the similarities between the Brown and Hamilton cases. Nate Hamilton acknowledged some missteps, such as when protesters blocked a freeway exit ramp or became disruptive at a Police and Fire Commission meeting.
But overall, the protests have been peaceful, which Nate Hamilton said is crucial to building support for the family’s goals. While the protests have highlighted that Manney is white and Hamilton was black, Hamilton’s family is focusing on broader issues, including mental health.
Police Chief Edward Flynn promised more training for officers dealing with people with mental illness and, on Oct. 15, fired Officer Christopher Manney for instigating the fight that led to the shooting. Manney has appealed.
Hamilton’s family wants to see Manney charged. The district attorney’s office has delayed a decision until it gets a recommendation from a national use-of-force expert.
The Hamiltons have been studying the law and police policy to better advocate for changes. They’re also finding other ways to channel their grief.
Hamilton’s mother is organizing a support group for women whose sons died in police shootings or custody and hopes to address shortcomings in mental health and social service programs. Maria Hamilton had struggled to get her 31-year-old son care after insurance problems caused him to miss his medication last winter. Until then, he had been doing well, living in group housing and working. Without the drugs, he became paranoid and began moving from place to place, eventually ending up in the park, where he was sleeping when Manney responded to a call from a nearby business about him.
“Had he had that medication, he might still be sitting here with us,” Maria Hamilton said.
Nate Hamilton and another brother, musician Dameion Perkins, wrote a song expressing their grief, anger and frustration. The song describes their “worst fear” — a brother “shot 14 times, didn’t do no wrong. Laying in the park, really I don’t see no harm. The investigation is still going on.”
Proceeds from the song sold on iTunes will benefit a foundation established in Hamilton’s memory.
“We can’t bring Dontre back,” Perkins said, “but what we can do is help somebody along the way.”
Perkins and Nate Hamilton remain bothered by police descriptions of their brother as homeless and violent. They describe Hamilton as fearful, but not dangerous. He checked into a hotel two days before the shooting and had almost $150 in cash on him when he died.
“He wasn’t dressed bummy, he was still dressed well, he had some Air Jordans on his feet … so we just felt like that was uncalled for,” said Nate Hamilton, who followed his brother into the roofing business before starting a remodeling company.
Maria Hamilton moved her sons from Gary, Indiana, to Milwaukee in 1995 to escape growing gang violence. She raised them to work hard, have faith and look out for one another. But Perkins said the shooting showed them that they had to be leaders.
“It’s taught us,” he said, “to use our minds on a broader scale.”
Another sad story of these damn Police being outta control! Something needs to be done forreal! How many lives do they have to take before there is a revolution? We must stand up!
