Colin Flaherty Commentary: "Video: Maywood Academy Teacher Arrested After Punching Student In Class" Media Leaves Out Key Elements Of The Whole Story. Black hostility violence attacks assault hitting throw punch hit with object threatens teacher defends fights back
MAYWOOD (CBSLA) — A teacher at Maywood Academy High School was arrested Friday after a violent altercation with a student inside a classroom.
In the video, the teacher, identified as 64-year-old Marston Riley, can be seen decking the student after a confrontation. The two then go at it in a horribly disturbing fist fight, reports CBS2’s Tom Wait, all of this unfolding in a band class full of stunned students, some who recorded the incident with their cell phones.
The beating is nonstop, with the teacher wailing on the student, even using an object, perhaps his phone, to pummel the boy to the ground. Students and an adult try to pull the student away, but the teacher is relentless — the student struggled to escape.
“It was just back and forth, back and forth, and then the teacher just decided to throw a punch and that’s when everything happened,” the student said.
The fallout from the video is just beginning. Parents are furious.
