An Indiana teacher is receiving some well-deserved criticism after CCTV footage was shared that appears to show him abusing a student.
Teachers are, arguably, the most important people in any society. Doctors, scientists, and engineers are all also up there, but teachers are, at the very least, in the conversation.
School is where kids are formed into adults, where they learn and get skills that will be essential to them for the rest of their lives. Children are the future, which means that teachers are responsible for shepherding the future.
So, when the horrifying video was released, parents were understably concerned about what this means for our kids.
A short blurb taken from the entire article: "Hosinski is not currently allowed on or near school grounds while the investigation takes place and has asked to be allowed to retire immediately."
My questions; based upon the video evidence, why was he not arrested and jailed immediately?
If he was, did he post bond?
Why should he be allowed to retire while pending an investigation?
I don't think he should lose his pension. He earned it as part of his compensation over his career.
However, he should be jailed after his criminal trial, and the subsequent civil trial should award the proceeds of that pension to the child he assaulted.
