Can you believe this? A Fairfax county public school teacher arrested by Fairfax County Police for hurting students.
Fairfax County Police have arrested and charged a special education teacher with mistreating children in her care. According to police, 33-year-old Jennah Billeter physically assaulted two boys, ages 4 and 5, at Deer Park Elementary School in Centreville. The boys did not require medical treatment.
The charges stem from an investigation launched after a school employee called Child Protective Services about the alleged abuse in July.
Billeter was charged with one count of misdemeanor simple assault and two counts of felony cruelty to children.
Billeter turned herself into the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center on Sunday.
Fairfax County Public Schools have suspended Billeter without pay.
