A Malibu, CA teacher is under investigation by law enforcement after slapping student Dionne Evans six times in the face for not bringing her notebook to class on May 22. TMZ says, “According to the police report, the teacher made Evans stand in front of the class — then asked, ‘Did you see ‘Bridesmaids’?’ before slapping her multiple times.” The teacher was referring to this scene in which Melissa McCarthy tries to “slap some sense” into Kristen Wiig:
You’ll notice that at the end of the scene, Wiig slaps McCarthy back, but I doubt the student in question was allowed the same rebuttal. TMZ reports that the teacher has issued the student a written apology, “but Evans’ family doesn’t think it’s enough.” They are pursuing criminal and civil options.
I know you guys live near Hollywood, but try to remember, teach: it’s just a movie.

This teacher is one of the kindest, most caring people that I have ever met. Last year, they were VOTED by the senior class to read off names at graduation. Not to mention the fact that she gets one of highest student ratings year after year. AND she’s been teaching for longer than this girl has been alive. The entire high school is up in arms about this allegation. A Facebook group was created in support of the teacher and 600 students joined it within the first hour. This story has been sensationalized only for media benefit and it’s disgusting.
@HELLO, No disrespect to you personally, but IDGAFF if this teacher was the Blessed Virgin, she had no buisness hitting a student, regardless of her reasoning, which to anyone with half a brain can easily see makes no type of sense. The media isn’t sensationalizing this story-this isn’t the 50′s where teachers were allowed to hit thier students. What’s disgusting is that this teacher thought it was okay to stike a student to teach her a lesson and only furthered the student’s humilation by doing it in front of the class. Not hitting a student should be a no brainer. The fact that she’s taught for so long makes it worse because she should have known better. Not only does this teacher deserve to get fired and lose her teaching license for good, but she deserves for the parents of that student to slap the living crap out of her too! A written apology isn’t enough. She assulted this underage girl and should get arrested. I hope the parents persue criminal charges as well as sue the teacher, the school, and the entire district!

Um, striking a child FOR ANY REASON is WRONG. So WHY are you defending a teacher who hit a student???? You’re an idiot, Hello.
