Default Student Faces Criminal Charges For Teacher Jokes

HENRY COUNTY, Ga. -- A Henry County high school student is facing criminal charges after posting comments about his teacher on the Web site, MySpace.com, reported WSB-TV in Atlanta.


The teacher has filed defamation of character charges against the student, Alex Davis, 15.

Eagle?s Landing High School science teacher Robert Muzzillo pursued the charges against Davis after noticing a profile with his name attached on MySpace.com.


The profile talked about Muzzillo liking Michael Jackson and having a "gay old time," like the Fred Flintstone song.


Davis said he only wrote that Muzzillo lost an eye wrestling with alligators and midgets. The teen said it was just a prank and meant as a joke.


When the school found out that Davis was involved, he received three days in-school suspension. Then he learned the teacher had filed charges against him.


"I have finals coming up and I have to study and instead I have to go to court," Davis said.

Davis' father said the charges are a waste of the court's time.


"This has all gotten kinda bizarre," Andy Davis said.


The Davis' have hired attorney Lee Sexton to handle the case.


"It's just silly stuff about a teacher they were just joking about. It's gotten way out of hand," Sexton said.




WTF, they suspended the kid for something he did outside of school? Well, I assume he did it while he was at home. I think he should counter sue that liberal piece of sh!t
