Why are they always picking on Teachers?

DOUGLAS — A Coffee County High School substitute teacher has been arrested in what police say appears to be a scheme to bilk money from students promised a trip to Disney World.

Police charged 39-year-old Christy Wise with theft by conversion after they say she collected more than $7,400 from students for their senior trip but never booked the reservations.

Nearly 50 students toting suitcases and bags lined up outside Coffee County High on Friday waiting to start their vacation, but the bus never came and Wise never showed up. Police believe Wise never had any intentions of scheduling the trip.

An official at the Coffee County Jail said Wise posted bond and was released Sunday. The amount of the bond was not immediately known.

Well "DUH", she probably took a "sick day" ....... and no one called in a Substitute ....... and that is not her fault, ....... now is it.

D'OH!

I know first-hand that substitues are not paid very well. A criminal record will probably not help things much for this lady.

I wonder what she spent the cash on? Was it her own private "stimulus package?"

It's not just teachers that get dissed:
