Teachers Arrested For Taping Students to Chalkboard ~*KG*~

CORAL GABLES, Florida (AP) -- A teacher and her aide were arrested on child abuse charges for allegedly punishing first-grade students by binding them with tape.

Five students said volunteer teacher's aide Ivonne Nieves bound the children at various times, and that teacher Vonda Christie saw what happened but did nothing, police said.

The first complaint to police was made September 11. All five 6-year-olds said their ankles were taped together, their arms taped to their lap or their heads taped to the blackboard. One girl said her mouth was taped shut.

It was not immediately clear what type of tape was used.

Nieves and Christie, both 38, were arrested Thursday on five counts each of child abuse. Nieves was also charged with five counts of false imprisonment. Nieves was jailed on $75,000 bail and Christie on $25,000 bail. Both women have court hearings Friday.

Yery Marrero, an attorney for Nieves, said the allegations "are simply untrue and they are being motivated by people who simply want money out of it."

Kristi Kassebaum, an attorney for Christie, said her client is "100 percent innocent" and would be pleading innocent.

During the investigation, Nieves was told not to return to work. Christie was placed on administrative assignment. Miami-Dade school officials said Thursday they were still determining what action to take.

Date: 10/10/2003 9:11:00 AM  From Authorid: 35720    What freaks.  
Date: 10/10/2003 9:17:00 AM  From Authorid: 59418    omg, weird lol.  
Date: 10/10/2003 9:21:00 AM  From Authorid: 62240    thats just crazy these women have some serious issues, i wonder if they have children.
Date: 10/10/2003 9:26:00 AM  From Authorid: 1225    That's assuming, of course, that they're guilty.  
Date: 10/10/2003 9:35:00 AM  From Authorid: 15228    1225, I was going to say the same thing. I don't know why, but I have a feeling this might not be true. The teachers should be put on administrative leave until it is fully investigated.  
Date: 10/10/2003 10:45:00 AM  From Authorid: 56293    That's horrible, If it's true... I just can't see something like this happening. But who knows, Life just keeps on amazing us!  
Date: 10/10/2003 12:02:00 PM  From Authorid: 25756    Very ummm...interesting. If they do turn out to be guilty maybe the kids were just being really rowdy or something? Who knows...lol  
Date: 10/10/2003 4:02:00 PM  From Authorid: 62289    i LOVE all these funny story bout techers lately! but siriosly thats mean!  
Date: 10/10/2003 4:17:00 PM  From Authorid: 47618    It is mean but work with children as a teacher and the idea of taping them isn't that farfetched. I'd never do it but sometimes I wonder...LOL Just kidding.  
Date: 10/10/2003 4:44:00 PM  From Authorid: 13119    You know what I find bizarre? A totally different response to the same type of teacher abuse. Someone else just had a story about a teacher throwing two students out the window. Everyone laughed, what's the difference between the two why is everyone so up in arms over this one? I would think that the other one was more harmful and it actually landed the children in the hospital. I have to agree with Kelly, did it really happen? Who knows, did the children really fly through the window and end up in the hospital, yes, why so sad over this story and not the other?  
Date: 10/10/2003 5:03:00 PM  From Authorid: 20921    weird, and sad, if its true  
Date: 10/10/2003 6:06:00 PM  From Authorid: 28890    wow that is sad..and here i thought getting hit over the head with a pen from a teacher was bad..guess i was wrong.  
Date: 10/11/2003 7:26:00 AM  From Authorid: 36967    I like that idea, that will make the kids behave themselves.  
Date: 10/11/2003 7:27:00 AM  From Authorid: 36967    Maybe if we bring back displine in the schools, maybe the school shootings will go down.  
Date: 10/11/2003 7:50:00 AM  From Authorid: 15228    Drkptrs has a point. Last year my daughter went into a public school for the first time and was shocked at the lack of disipline. She had always been in DOD (department of defense) schools. I heard the exact same thing from 3 different kids who entered public school and the same time as my daughter. If kids notice a lack of disipline, than it must be pretty bad! I don't think duck tape is the answer, but its a start (just kidding of course).  
Date: 10/11/2003 8:37:00 AM  From Authorid: 60052    As I said in the post about the kids getting thrown out the window, it's not funny, but it is. I know there have been more than one time that I wanted to tape my snotty little nephew's mouth shut (I never did of course, but it did cross my mind.)  
Date: 10/11/2003 12:20:00 PM  From Authorid: 53909    Mmm, that's just weird and crazy.  
Date: 10/12/2003 1:08:00 PM  From Authorid: 52746    When I first read the title of this post, I thought it was a joke. I work in a school and I know how badly behaved many of the pupils can be and you sort of have "Ally McBeal fantasies" of what you'd like to do to them but really you don't because you're all professional and deal with it in a positive way.
