East Chicago, Ind. (WLS) – An Indiana teacher is in custody after being accused of telling a student she had a “kill list” for people at the school.
The student herself said she also was on that list.
“I’m really, like, scared and worried,” said Portia Jones, the student involved.
Disturbing and violent comments allegedly made by a fifth-grade teacher at St. Stanislaus School in east Chicago left a lingering deep concern over Jones, her family and her classmates.
“They really need to work on this one because this is something serious,” said her father, Quiannis Jones. “She’s really, probably not, ever going back here.”
That teacher is now in police custody.
“She said that she wanted to choke us, and she wanted to kill herself,” Portia said.
On Wednesday just before 1 p.m., the student said she immediately alerted her counselor and principal.
Police said while speaking with the principal, the teacher admitted to making comments about having a kill list, even naming a specific student’s name, but never gave them the list.
The teacher was sent home and told not to return to the school pending an investigation.
East Chicago police said they weren’t called to investigate until four hours later.
“They should have never let her walk out them doors,” Quiannis Jones said. “They should’ve called the police right then and there. That’s a threat on the school.”
In a letter sent to parents, the school’s principal said police assured them that it was safe for them to continue with the school day and other school events.
“We asked if, out of an abundance of caution, it would be advisable to have police in the building and we were further assured that there was no need,” the principal said in the letter.
No charges against the teacher have been announced.
The school’s principal said classes will be held virtually Friday out of concern for the students’ emotional health.
