Student Who Bullied Bus Monitor In 2012 Is Now Accused Of Forcing A Special-Needs Classmate To Drink Urine

A high school student in Greece, N.Y. who allegedly forced a special-needs classmate to drink urine out of a toilet was also involved in the bullying of an elderly bus monitor in 2012 which went viral.

Upon hearing news of the tormented special-needs student, the bullied bus monitor, Karen Klein, told WHEC, “I don’t believe this is happening again.”

Earlier this week it was reported that three students at Greece Athena High School in upstate New York confronted the special-needs student in the bathroom and forced him to hold his crotch while drinking urine from the toilet. The students filmed the incident and posted video of it Snapchat, a social media site.

ask any kid now in middle or high school..there is a real evil out there going around. Kids who feel absolutely no compassion for each other, who care about nothing but pop culture, who are incapable of love. There were always "bad kids" who didn't care about school authority- but often those kids were very loyal among themselves. (Some of) these new breed of kids? Pure evil.

like that has not been going on for 200 years. Please, if anything kids are much more compassionate. If for no other reason, all of the political correctness has made them so.

8:35. What rock do you live under? How much time do you spend around kids? You should investigate before you type.

It's not all kids. I think there's an increasing between the really good kids, and the really bad ones. I don't mean that the "good kids" are becoming absolute angels, but the bad ones are getting worse.

We mostly find that it's just one kid who is the "brains" behind the offensive behavior, with a following of witless wannabes. Sort of a classic scenario.
A letter to the parents? An okay start, but it'll probably take a lot more to turn these kids' heads around.

Punk kids like that turn out to be either gang bangers or politicans.

"like that has not been going on for 200 years".

Typical lib. First- you do realize the "everybody else is doing it" defense is something a five year old would say. Let me put it in language a five year old might understand... It doesn't matter if every single kid on the planet does bad things. Doing bad things is not okay. Second, you know that's not even remotely true. You really think kids in the 1940's were as rotten as the rotten ones are (yes I know not all kids are bad, we don't need to be reminded) today? Third- 200 years is as far as your impoverished imagination can come up with, huh?

The bathroom incident is assault, plain and simple. To just call it bullying is not enough. The parents of the victim should get a lawyer.

This bully needs to be in a psychiatric institute for in depth evaluation before he ends up a subject of the FBI's behavior analyst unit and an episode of Criminal Minds.

10:51am is spot on!
By not enforcing some type of punishment the bullies continue on with this bullying mentality. Bullies work in groups because they cannot act as an individual, they would be seriously hurt!
Bullies learn from their parents. Parents need to be parenting and not being abusers with negativity, smacking around, and such.
A sad, sad, world we live in.

Send that bully to boot camp. He needs some tough love.

To 12:41. Yes, I wish the bully could be sent to Sheriff Joe's chain gang in Arizona. Maybe he will be repaid for his actions.

Hay, lighten up, the kid sees those survivalist drinking their urine on TV all the time.

The bully should join the military. Would fit right in torturing detainees in secret prisons.
