Student Arrested For Classroom Texting
A 14-year-old Wisconsin girl was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct after she refused to stop texting during a high school math class. The girl denied having a phone when confronted by a school safety officer, but a female cop found it after frisking her. The Samsung Cricket was recovered "from the buttocks area" of the teenager, according to the police report. The girl was banned from school property for a week, and is scheduled for an April 20 court appearance for a misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge. I applaud the adults involved for their discretion and temperance in this heinous case of texting without permission.
Who wants to make the grammar joke?
"heinous case of texting without permission."
"from the buttocks area"
Sounds more like an anus case.
I can recommend. I'll even cut y'all in on the finders fee.
Hmm, this "phone in the butt" story appeared just after the bar of soap phone story... cue jokes about bending over.

"No more butt-dialing!"
Oh wait you said butt not vag.
The teacher asked the student to stop. Is there some other action a school is allowed to take with a student who refuses to follow instructions?
I think you are supposed to give them a trophy or something.
It helps with their self esteem;-)
This is about the punishment - not the crime. What the hell is wrong with you. Do you tie your shoes in little nazies. In an age where we find Judges being paid to send kids to jail we should be questioning every single one of these incidents. What's the motive here? And how did we come to this?
Good move! Save time for the important things in life, like self-indulgent narration of things you didn't do.
It may make me seem like a bit of a killjoy but there would be no mystery ass-phones in a school I ran. If got wind of an ass-phone situation I'd need a police report on file detailing the origin of the phone, how it came to be in the ass, and if any school staff was involved in placement or extraction of said ass-phone.
As for having the police arrest a teenager with a phone in their ass, I think their options were pretty limited. Rational people don't put phones in their ass outside of hostage situations so talking them down doesn't seem practical. Allowing a student to keep a phone in their ass doesn't seem like a good idea and going after it seems worse.
If you didn't come to party don't bother knocking on my door. Prince '1999'
