Miguel Matias torment peaked last week when he grew so enraged that his 14-year-old daughter, Ana, was sending text messages to a boy that he choked her and stuffed her body into a burning furnace boiler.

Who Watches the Watchers
A spokesman for the state agency (FL) that oversees the welfare of children was arrested Friday on charges that he solicited minors, at least one of whom may have been in state custody, to create pornography, authorities said.
Al Zimmerman of the state Department of Children & Families has been fired, agency officials said. The 40-year-old was charged with eight counts of using a child in a sexual performance and faces up to 120 years in prison if convicted of all charges.

Teacher admits sex with student
A Biloxi teacher, who was suspended after sexual battery charges were filed against her, admitted to police she had sexual relations with the 15-year-old, according to court documents provided by the county attorney. In one communication she called the juvenile her little "sex fiend."
Rebecca Dawn Bogard, 27, was charged with sexual battery of a teenage male student Jan. 18, and released on $50,000 bond. She was suspended by the Biloxi School District with pay Jan. 23.
Why are tax payers being forced to continue to pay her salary? She admitted she had sex with a 15 year old, she abused her position as his teacher. She should be fired immeadietly and all 'pay' should stop.

persistent problem with sexual misconduct in U.S. schools
Heeding a steady drumbeat of sexual misconduct cases involving teachers, at least 15 states are now considering stronger oversight and tougher punishment for educators who take advantage of their students.
Lawmakers say they are concerned about an increasingly well-documented phenomenon: While the vast majority of America's teachers are committed professionals, there also is a persistent problem with sexual misconduct in U.S. schools. When abuse happens, administrators too often fail to let others know about it, and too many legal loopholes let offenders stay in the classroom.
This seems to be a step in the right direction to making public school safe and getting predatory teachers out of the classroom.

Why Homeschool: My heart pains for the poor parents
Why Homeschool: My heart pains for the poor parents
I can identify with the boy Henry's post is about. I had a 4th grade teacher who verbally abused me. If my music teacher had not walked in during the middle of one of her tirades telling me how stupid, worthless and retarded I was and rescued me from the class permanently this could have been me. I felt helpless and I didn't know of a way to escape from the abusive teacher. Without my music teachers intervention I wonder how long it would have been before I thought death was preferable to having to endure the 4th grade teachers abuse?
