Teacher suspended for showing high-school students infamous body-parts video
 
A teacher has been suspended by a Montreal school for showing Grade 10 students the infamous video that shows a killing allegedly committed by Luka Rocco Magnotta.

The teacher showed the students the grotesque scenes on June 4 and was immediately suspended that afternoon — with pay.


Staff at Cavelier-De LaSalle High School in Montreal’s west end say they quickly informed the students that a team of psychologists was available to deal with any problems that might have resulted from watching the video.

“We condemn with one voice the actions of the teacher who showed students a video whose content was as inappropriate as it was offensive,” the school board said in a statement Wednesday.

“The incident is being taken very seriously.”

The teacher had been under contract as a replacement through the end of the year, for a 10th-grade history and citizenship education class.

The teacher apparently apologized to the school by email and is now scheduled to lay out his version of the facts before a labour-relations board Wednesday. A decision is expected by the end of the school year, but could also come during the summer.

Magnotta, a male escort and porn actor originally named Eric Newman, is awaiting extradition from Germany and faces murder charges in the slaying of Chinese exchange student Jun Lin.

A memorial is planned in Montreal for Lin tomorrow night.

A video circulating on the Internet — called 1 Lunatic, 1 Ice Pick — is believed by authorities to show Lin’s murder in Montreal several weeks ago.

It shows someone stabbing a man and dismembering him. It then shows the killer committing acts of sex and cannibalism on parts of the corpse.

Another Montreal high-school teacher, speaking to The Canadian Press, says he has heard from several of his students who have watched the video at home and immediately regretted it.

Education Minister Michelle Courchesne expressed anger over the incident.

“It’s horrifying,” Courchesne told reporters in Quebec City. “It’s a very, very serious and total lack of judgment. I don’t see any educational value in that (video).”

Similar article on CBC today.

Some student was quoted "The student said the video was troubling, but didn't have a lasting effect on him."

You know we're seriously fucked when kids can watch disturbing shit like this and not have a lasting effect.

What the fuck could this guy possibly have been thinking. What a fucking retard.

I remember watching some messed up shit on RS(-offtopic when NWS was still allowed) back in high school. It was of some guy cutting up his own testicles, piercing his own penis, doing some super f'd up shit (some kind of body sport olympics?)... that kind of desensitized me to a lot of things I ended up seeing later on... With internet these days, gruesome movies easily downloadable to watch, its not a big surprise that this video doesn't phase kids as we expect it to

[edit]
For those that want to read about the video (and not watch it), I found a description of it:
Spoiler!

I don't know man, by the time you reach the age of 15/16, you're almost fully developed and I suppose you would already have knowledge of really fucked up shit so I can understand how this wouldn't have a lasting effect
Any of the 10th graders who've experienced any psychological or traumatic issues after watching it haven't been exposed enough to this kind of stuff .. I grew up watching horror movies and some really gory shit. Exposing this video to 10 year-olds would be different ..
idk this is just how I feel about it, since I'm still a teen myself

not fully emotionally developed, not even close.

hotjoint 06-13-2012 12:14 PM

wow what an idiot, I like how he got suspended with pay

inv4zn 06-13-2012 01:01 PM

To everyone who commented saying how it's not that bad, or how they admit they are desensitized due to growing up in this time and age, you guys are exactly what the fuck I'm talking about.

There is supposed to be a line drawn. That line may change slightly by "era", yes, but when the bar is set so low that a video of an actual murdering of a human, decapitating,defiling, and eating the corpse, setting a wild animal upon it, and then sending various body parts by mail is not enough to cause "lasting effects", you know the bar is set way too fucking low.

Just hearing and reading about this makes me sick. I can't even imagine watching it. It doesn't make you hardcore that you can watch sick shit like this and not feel bad. It makes you sick.

This entire incident, and some of the reactions following it are exactly why

-school board was too lenient on this teacher. How the heck does the teacher still get paid after being suspended? -poor judgement shown by the teacher. He'll have a tough time getting his contract renewed at the end of the year.

InvisibleSoul 06-13-2012 03:29 PM

Other article said that most of the students urged him to play it. They took a vote, and it was 22 students that wanted to see it, and 3 that didn't. It also said the teacher was still reluctant, but ended up doing it.

At the very least, he didn't just decide to play it for the hell of it... but still wasn't a bright decision to go by majority.

Matlock 06-13-2012 03:43 PM

The teacher was a moron to have shown the video.

If the students want to look at corpses, then let them do it on their own time in their own home.

Recon604 06-13-2012 03:45 PM

i watched it a week ago, its so fcked up. its really disturbing, I couldnt watch it all without skipping ahead. cant believe the teacher would show tat in class to grade 10 students

JSALES 06-13-2012 04:06 PM

I just searched for the video and couldn't watch the whole thing. I just skipped a few parts, it's fucking disgusting.

vafanculo 06-13-2012 04:10 PM

Lol I rmbr in grade 7 in 94, our teacher accidently forgot to skip a scene that shows titties. He got so paranoid, and made a deal with us if we promise not to tell our parents he will show it again.

Wtf was this idiot thinking of?

Verdasco 06-13-2012 04:13 PM

watched only the first few seconds of him poking the torso with the knife :facepalm: never will and never should watch iht full in my life..

Razor Ramon HG 06-13-2012 04:15 PM

I think he's at least equally idiotic for going with a vote. If he just showed it, yeah, he's an idiot with bad judgement.
If he listened to a student vote, he must think it's ok, and that listening to students tell him how to do his job must be a good idea.


:considered: Hmm.. show students ridiculously gory inappropriate video?
