Principal Melissa Carter was filmed smacking the student by the girl's own mother
A teacher who was filmed whacking a young girl repeatedly with a wooden paddle won’t face criminal charges – leaving the six-year-old’s family ‘very disappointed’.
The girl’s mother filmed the clip in secret after apparently being called to the school because her daughter had allegedly caused $50 in damage to a computer. ‘A parent has a right to use corporal punishment to discipline their children, and similarly has the right to consent that others do so on their behalf’, the Hendry County attorney’s office’s memo said.According to the memo, the child’s mother initially reported the incident to the Hendry County Sheriff’s Office on April 14, the day after her daughter was paddled at school.
He said: ‘The family and I as their lawyer are very disappointed that the State Attorney, Amira Fox, did not criminally charge the school principal and her assistant who savagely beat this innocent six-year-old with a paddle for merely scratching a computer.‘The State Attorney in our estimation failed to hold accountable those who violate their responsibility to educate and nurture school children under their care, and instead, physically and emotionally abuse them.
