NY Students Arrested for Trying to Kill Teacher

Elementary school students arrested after attempting to murder teacher….

I guess Alicia Keys and Jay Z almost got it correct when they wrote the song “New York State of Mind.” But my question is what were these two Brooklyn youngsters thinking when their states of mind lead them to want to kill their elementary school teacher. Granted, school may be a bit tougher these days dealing with bullying and other peer pressure, but what could possibly want to drive a 9 and 12 year old to this extent.

The two young students attended Public School 315 in Flatbush, Brooklyn, one of New York’s most popular boroughs. The two students put rat poison in the teachers’ water bottle and another student that was in the class informed their parents and they in turn altered school officials. The two students have been arrested on suspicion of poising the teacher while she is slowly recovering. Police commissioner  William J. Bratton issued a quote reported from the 9 year-old stating, “I wanted to see what the reaction would be.”
