Teacher Fired After Allegedly Biting Pupil

[Sequoia]

School officials on Tuesday fired a middle school teacher charged with biting a student who would not spit out a piece of candy.

Caroline Kolb has pleaded not guilty to an aggravated assault charge for allegedly biting 14-year-old Garrick Hudson on the back during a classroom scuffle Jan. 11.

School officials conducted a probe and fired Kolb for insubordination and conduct unbecoming a teacher, The Courier-Journal reported, citing a copy of her termination letter.

Administrators had previously warned Kolb to avoid being physically confrontational with students, according to the letter.

2. Did they prove it was a bite mark?

Did they prove the bite belong to the teacher?

Of course there may be other circumstances that we may not be aware about that could support or not support the teacher.
