    Mexico teacher denies locking boy in school

    MONTERREY, Mexico (AP) — A Mexican teacher is denying she locked a 7-year-old child inside a classroom for hours as punishment.

    Teacher Zulema Garza says it was an accident. She says she didn't realize the boy was still inside the classroom in the city of Monterrey when she locked the door and went home Monday.

    Garza spoke to TV Azteca on Wednesday, a few hours before state police officers took her in for questioning.

    Police rescued the boy around midnight Monday, when they found him sleeping under the teacher's desk.

    The boy's mother has filed a criminal complaint.

    She says the teacher had abused her son at least once before by taping him to the legs of a desk.

      Regardless of whether or not the child had difficulty with staying seated, the teacher had to know the child was in the classroom when she left that afternoon. I would think that he would have been allowed to leave with his classmates. Something doesn't seem right in this story.

        that poor child must have been frightened out of his wits, being only 7 yrs.old. His parents must have been frantic when he didn't return home that afternoon. No excuses when it has anything to do with any of God's children.

        Thanks, Ssusi, I did and I am not surprised actually. It confirms things I've heard. And they call us paranoid with conspiracy theories.

      "he teacher had abused her son at least once before by taping him to the legs of a desk" Did she have a choice? Have you ever tried to secure a child to a desk using Post-Its. It just doesn't work.

      The parents should have dealt with this so called teacher when it taped the child's legs to the desk legs, and then called the police.

      I seriously doubt that anyone locked that kid in the school on purpose. Any idiot would know that the kids parents would come looking for him and they would get caught. The kid was probably goofing around hiding somewhere when they locked up.
