Liar, Liar, Pants on Wire

Five-year-old Gabriel Ross complained that his kindergarten teacher was being mean to him. His parents became concerned about his behavior, so they put a recorder in the pocket of his cargo pants one day before they sent him to school. When he got home, they found he'd recorded his teacher, Kristen Woodward, calling him ignorant, selfish, pathetic, and self-absorbed, among other things. New Albany-Floyd County, Indiana, school system officials refused to discuss the case. But a spokesman for the State Teachers Association said Woodward had been suspended indefinitely.
