The affidavit says she directly told him to give it to him.This.
It's why she's actually in trouble at all, guaranteed. There'd be no standing if the bully just took it. The fact she purposely intended to trick the bully and said to give it to him is what makes it legally dicey.
Of course Texas would arrest a woman.For semi-intentionally harming a child, no less. >_>

how does lemon salt and vinegar send a kid to the hospital
what kind of weak bully is this?
The fact of the matter is that that bully doesnt have the right to pretend to be a victim. The victim did not consent to hand the bully the food. The victims mother doesnt know any of the bullys allergies or whatever so therefore could not make a meal for the bully, and the school obviously would have been told about the thefts prior and allowed them to happen, meaning the school themselves are aiding and abetting theft.
The school themselves are responsible for any damage (although highly likely to be fake), since the school knew about and allowed the theft to happen
Do we have any proof of that?you think the bully victim kept the thefts a secret and didnt even attempt to tell a teacher?

Generally speaking, you can't do the sitcom "oh I'll just poison the food getting stolen" because you legally can't poison people.
Full stop.
Like, punish the bully, obviously, but this ain't it.
you think the bully victim kept the thefts a secret and didnt even attempt to tell a teacher?Absolutely. There are countless reasons a kid wouldn't tattle.

I'm genuinely unsure how to respond because this almost doesn't seem like a reply to what I posted, so to the second bit I'll say I agree that there's less difference in scenarios you posted, but I don't think your example is actually analgous to this situation at all. The domestic abuse would have to directly cause the ingestion of laxatives (or whatever other retribution), where the offenders choice directly leads to the negative outcome they receive. To use an analogy of my own, it's the difference between someone breaking into your home and falling victim to a trap you set to protect yourself as a result, and inviting people into your home in order to lull them into the traps you've set.
And again, to be clear, I'm not siding with or sympathizing with the bully here, I'm noting that there is a minor difference between setting up a situation where an offender gets payback as a direct result of their offense and going out of your way to trick someone into doing something they wouldn't have otherwise.
So, the bully isn't even a smart bully.
Was it poisoned though? It was lemon, vinegar and salt.I admitted a few posts down that "food tampering" would be more accurate.
You can't tamper with food even if it's not poisonous. Yeah, the bully still needs to be punished but it's alarming how many people itt are being obtuse about this
Is that poison though? Just seems like a really not so tasty drink
Absolutely. There are countless reasons a kid wouldn't tattle.Thats even worse. So the school is such a bad environment that the kid cant report a series of incidents without fear of the school not handling it well enough and preventing retaliation. That still means the school is culpable.

Once again, youre assuming the worst of the school.Yes, and I will continue to do so until there's any evidence they have put in any effort and are acting in good faith at all. There's been too many cases of the opposite to ever just believe a school has put in above-minimum effort without further proof.
All I need to know is that it's more likely than not.
While what youre suggesting is entirely possible, you have no way of knowing thats the case.

I didn't write that, I quoted it. So there's no need to put a judgment on me.
How is this tampering with consumer products if its not sold nor intended to be sold?
This is a good question. I think "consumer product" was specifically written to be applied in a broad-range of things in order to side with the consumer more.

I don't think you can poison somebody with salad dressing.Your honor, that salt was not kosher
to inhale or swallow, with intent to injure, any substance injuri- ous to health or any function of the body, or for administering with intent. to kill.
Thats even worse. So the school is such a bad environment that the kid cant report a series of incidents without fear of the school not handling it well enough and preventing retaliation. That still means the school is culpable.Yep.
Bad mom. A kid is hospital because of herAgain you can go to the hospital for any reason and plenty of people make shit up to see a doctor.
