Teacher arrested after organizing fights between students in class

A 24-year-old American teacher has been indicted on four counts after being heard in a video, organizing fights between her students.

The scene, filmed discreetly under a school desk, is surreal. It shows a substitute teacher, officiating in an American college, explain to her students the rules to follow for a hand-to-hand fight, before assigning one to keep watch in front of the front door.

“What I want you to do is stand in front of the door and block it in case someone comes along,” she intimates. Then to add: “When it starts, I need everyone to shut up. This is not a joke”.

Then follows an outburst of violence, with four college students exchanging numerous blows under the cries and consternation of their comrades.

Recorded Wednesday, April 12, the video was sent the next day to officials at Kimbrough College, located in the town of Mesquite, east of Dallas, Texas, where the facts took place.

The teacher was fired the day after the incident, then arrested afterwards by the police.
