High School Students Accused Of Killing Chicken For Cookout BROOKE COUNTY, W.Va. -- Two Brooke High School students are accused of killing a chicken outside of a vocational classroom with the intentions of eating it at a cookout, the superintendent said.
What kind of evil monsters are we raising?NEWS9 received an email about the incident Thursday night, and Superintendent Kathy Kidder confirmed it happened.
Two male students, a senior and a junior, were involved, Kidder said. She said they were disciplined immediately. She said the extent of the students' punishment won't be known until the school board finished its investigation.
These little monsters should be forced to eat tofu for a month!Kidder said the students had asked the principal if they could have a cookout earlier in the week and were told no. However, the students then went to the vocational director, who approved the cookout, unaware of the principal's decision.
Kidder said one of the students raises chickens at home and brought two live chickens to the school on Thursday. The students allegedly snuck out of class and cut the head off one chicken with a knife in a lawn outside of a vocational classroom, Kidder said. A teacher who was inside the classroom saw what happened and stopped the student before he slaughtered the second animal.
Mercifully!In a statement to school officials, the student said he intended on cooking it on a grill near the school.
Evil little bastard"We have a very large cooker on wheels located behind the building," Kidder said. "It has been used in the past for celebrations. The cooker is gone. It was removed yesterday."
So this monster not only KILLED the innocent chicken, but wanted to eat its flesh--SickeningKidder said other students saw the incident. She went to the school immediately after she was notified.
"I thought it was appalling. I was very angry. When I first heard it, I was sickened by it," she said. "I know some people get their chicken in that manner, but not as a spectacle."
Why didn't they just BUY a chicken at the market where no animals are harmed?She said the incident is troubling and unfortunate for the hundreds of other students who attend the school.
Because none of the other little snowflakes have any idea where their food comes from."This is two students out of 3,400 and unfortunately we have in our society people who want to make a news story out of everything," Kidder said.
The teacher of the class, whose name was not released, was not working on Friday pending the investigation, she said.
There were two knives involved. One was under repair in the classroom, and it was not clear where the other knife came from.
And one of these monsters had two knives--no telling what sort of mayhem could have ensued.Brooke County residents like Scott Gallagher were talking about the incident. Gallagher said, "I think it could have been done in a more private setting. I think there is a place for that. Everybody eats chicken, but not everybody sees the chicken slaughtered."
Gabriel Arlia, of Follansbee, said, "I used to hold the chicken while my mother cut its head off. That's how we got chicken every Sunday."
Others, like Alice Brandon, of New Alexandria, Ohio, said, "That is so gross. I think that is so gross. I don't know where the parents were, but that it totally gross."
Alice thinks THIS is gross--wait until she and her 15-year-old boyfriend have that first child next summer.For more on this compelling story, check out the video at
