Meanwhile, some other students slipped out of the room to get help. And finally, after more than ten minutes, the help came, and she was silenced and taken from the classroom.

After the video hit the Web, San Benito school superintendent Antonio Limon told the Brownsville Herald that the teacher had a bad reaction to her medications, and San Benito ISD released a statement claiming that the incident is "under review." The statement went on to say that a replacement teacher has been hired for the last few weeks of the year. Claiming that the incident was a "personnel matter," the district declined to name the woman or release any more details.

According to the San Benito News, the same educator, a former San Benito ISD Teacher of the Year, was at the center of a similar outburst last December.

Incidentally, the News is not buying the medications alibi. As their reporter wrote two days ago:

Although the incident was initially attributed to a bad reaction to medication by a trusted source involved in the matter, [the teacher] displayed similar behavior when asked why she had made such comments. "Because it's true," she replied.

Once clear she was not fit to conduct an interview, the News asked her husband [Hair Balls Note: the earthly one, not Jesus Christ] to speak on her behalf. He said, "I feel that my wife does care a lot about her students, and she loves working in San Benito. There's really nothing else to say except to please respect my family's privacy."
