2. Maybe the teacher shouldn't have tried to grab the student's property

3. "He's not a criminal." LOL of course he is. A non-criminal would not attack that teacher.

4. "prison is a death sentence" damn thats crazy anyways that lady almost died because of him

5. Shes literally making excuses for him

6. I have an electronic obsession

7. Wilderness

8. Mother full of excuses, and no accountability. Expecting teachers to do her job. Second how much switch time he has in prison? Parents today are the worst that happened to modern education

9. This "kid" was just sentenced to 5 years in prison for the attack. Very appropriate sentence if you ask me

10. ofc they give him 30 years for this but if it was anyone else, they wouldn't even give that person 30 years for murder, american justice system is a joke lmao

11. Autism is being used as an excuse for choosing criminal behavior.

12. our justice system is a joke 30 years? if he has attacked a male teacher he probably wouldn't even spend a day in prison

13. yet trump gets to run for president and faces no accountability for his crimes he got convicted of

14. Kids used to learn this behavior was bad because they would get beat up at the playground. These parents enabled him and that led to this.

15. Hes faking all this special needs stuff to get a check fraudulently and his mom is in on it

16. I hate this guy as much as anybody, but part of this is a curriculum thst wants him to obey without tesching him anything he perceives as valuable or otherwise engaging him. Counseling that teaches why learning life skills is important would have helped, even if it took years.

17. But also because, I'm not a doctor BUT HIS COMMENT TO THE POLICE OFFICER ALSO MAKES IT VERY EVIDENT THAT HE'S JUST A CHILD.

18. I've seen the real video. And as a man who has been involved in several different types of combative sports, I will say that the person hitting the teacher appears to be an angry adult. But that's physically. When I look at it from a psychological point of view, IT'S VERY EVIDENT THAT THE PERSON HITTING THE TEACHER WAS A KID; BASED ON THE FACT THAT KIDS HIT ADULT DIFFERENTLY THAN ADULTS HIT ADULTS.

19. This kid does not understand and he will never fully understand what he did. It is not right for him to be in jail, he is not a risk to himself or others, he has a developmental disability. We know he did wrong. He does not think like us, he does not process like us. It is not his fault. I hope this boy gets a better group of people to advocate for him.

20. She looks like a famous actress from the 80s

21. Autism is not an excuse for committing crimes.

    So you mean to tell me that attacking someone is not a crime?

    And don’t manhandle me?!

    Are you freaking serious!!?

    Dude look at what you done!?

    You got some nerve

22. The kid clearly doesn't understand

23. I used to be in special education thats what they called it when i went to school and some kids, mostly boys went to juvinal hall in those classes so i had violent kids in my class as well. They never hurt anybody but one kid in junior high school got so mad he would punch glass windows thats what i had to be in classes with.

24. Parents are 100% to blame. The mom couldn’t even care less what happened to the women.

25. Seriously, is an Nintendo switch worth go to jail for

26. This is what Autism looks like!

27. Guy nearly kills teacher
    -' But he's not violent"
    ? ? ?

28. You should have not allowed him the Switch at school.

29. If mom knew there would be a problem if his Nintendo was taken away she should have never allowed him to take it to school.

30. Why did the parents let him take a toy to school instead of going to learn something…they were using the school as a day care

31. The Karen brought this upon herself. They were warned to not take his switch away but she did it anyway. I feel no pity for her

32. I don’t doubt these events are heartbreaking for his family and care providers or that his medical conditions at least contributed to his actions, but that does not exempt this young man from the entire legal system. As a defendant, he has the absolute right to fair trial, which includes understanding the proceedings and assisting his defense. He cannot be prosecuted unless he is found to be legally competent to stand trial. If he is found competent, then he has still has the right to plead not guilty based on mental illness. He has the right to attorney and must be afforded the opportunity to present evidence and testimony on the issue of competence and/or a defense based on mental illness. I’m not sure there is a way to allow this case to circumvent the court system, where the decisions are made by a judge and a jury, that would as or more just for the defendant and the victim.

33. A disability is not a free pass to be evil.

34. Last week sentenced to 5 years and 15 probation.

35. Those "parents" should not attempt to adopt or "raise" anymore kids.

36. He gets 5 years in prison and 15 years probation. And this outraged a lot of people since many wanted him in for 30 years or even put to sleep for attacking the teacher and his mom prosecuted

37. The kid is autistic. That switch was probably the only thing keeping him centered and sane….and she took it. She either didn't know or didn't care.

    That's the reality with dealing with autistic kids that are strong.

38. This trash needs 10 years in prison a d pay the victims medical bills and fined $10,000.

39. This Kids Deserve Not Be Released from Prison

40. I’m an ABA & this is why the students that I work with are elementary age based. I refuse to work with teens or adults that have intellectual disabilities. Because of situations like this. All of these “triggers”. Well why allow him to use electronic devices so much that he feels he can’t go 5 minutes without it????😮 & Sadly there are so many ABA vacancies for high school students. Not worth it at all!

41. He should get 20+ years. He is a danger.

42. I don’t condone what he did. If the parents laid out what not to do in the IEP then it shows that the school system failed him. What ever teacher that would be interacting with him should have been trained on his IEP. This type of thing is too common. It’s also sad that they took him off of his medication cold turkey. That will do more harm than help. Again, what he did is definitely not acceptable behavior. What they are doing to him is more harm than benefit. He has to understand the actions he took part in. What you may understand it as is perceived completely different by him.

43. “F*ck you, I got more important places to be. Stop manhandling me.” Doesn’t sound like the capacity of a 6-year-old to me. (What his mom described him as) Just saying.

44. Thats why you should not mix students with special needs with others, is not discrimination, is a situation to put equals with equuals and also to treat students with their special needs

45. We screwed up when we got rid of most mental hospitals, especially long term facilities. I know they were horrible places, they should have been fixed not abandoned.

46. He is a criminal he nearly killed her.

47. No excuses

48. His caregivers failed him

49. At 2:00 the cop is so careful to say YOUR WATCH IS GOING IN YOUR POCKET cause he knows what happens if the guy thinks someone stole his electronics 💀💀

50. Thos was a situation where yes, its terrible that happened but hes obviously just a big kid who needs someone with him at all times as hes sadly not all there. There should be alterior methods for those with such a disability. Its heartbreaking. Hope the teacher is ok but thats still sad how we handle things for mentally ill people
