Two Grade 8 students at Florida Pitt Waller were told to take off their shoes, socks and pants by the lunch lady and a female custodian, who suspected the kids of stealing $180. The mother of at least one of the boys is outraged.
The two
Denver boys were asked to strip in the middle of the lunchroom in full view of other students.
Teachers and custodians seeing what was going on, intervened to stop the embarssment. The police were called to the school but declined to press charges against the lunchroom staff.
"I think they really did overstep their boundaries. I think they should have got on the phone and called me and let me know what was going on instead of walking up to my son and making him strip down to his drawers and accusing him of stealing money and telling him afterwards what the situation was about," Mrs. Cleere, one of the mothers of the two boys said.
Later, the money was found where it should have been all along.
