The sheriff’s office also conducted an investigation after several other parents made allegations against the teacher.
JOHNSTON COUNTY, N.C. - A North Carolina mother was shocked at the selfie her son sent from school showing his mouth taped shut.
“Just layer after layer, there were some pieces that went right up to his lower eyelid,” Webster said.“So, I showed the principal the photo, and she took us into her office,” Webster said.“It had been going on, you know, about two months, and it had happened to several kids in the classroom. And sometimes she tapes some kids’ wrists together. Sometimes she tapes their mouth,” the mother said.
Johnston County Schools said the teacher, who was just hired in August 2022, resigned on Feb. 17, just days after the photo was texted. The sheriff’s office also conducted an investigation as they said several allegations by other parents were made.
