Virginia day care teacher convicted of running 'baby fight club' where terrified children were sprayed with water, dunked in wading pools and fed Flamin' Hot Cheetos

A former day care teacher from Virginia has been found guilty of more than a dozen criminal charges for turning her classroom, dubbed 'the monkey room,' into what a prosecutor described as a 'baby fight club.'

A Prince William County judge Wednesday convicted Sarah Jordan, 31, on 13 felony and misdemeanor counts, including child cruelty, and assault and battery. She was acquitted on four counts.

More than 20 counts were dismissed by the judge during the trial, largely because prosecutors failed to prove that the alleged assaults had occurred within the statute of limitations

Why the freakin hell are this kind of people allowed to work at a day care center? Do they hire anyone for those positions in the US?

i dont think child care places do a thorough scanning of one's background. anyone with a conviction could slip in without notice until its too late. it has happened before

And it's generally a close to min. wage gig. In terms of employees, like everything else... you get what you pay for.
