5th graders tried to poison teacher

Last December, a trio of 5th graders in Fresno, Calif.,
put rat poison in their teacher’s coffee. They were all
set to watch Teach take a sip of java when one of the
plotters got cold feet and knocked the cup over.

This isn’t the plot of an upcoming Law and Order episode—though,
OK, it just might be, now. This is real life. Three 10- and 11-year-olds actually tried to murder their teacher…and they almost got away with it. Sure, they were punished. All three of the students were expelled from school, according to KMPH. But that’s all. They are now attending another public school. And this is the first we’re hearing about it.
