Des Plaines teacher charged with battery against four young students
Lai Ying T. Escobedo, 44, of the 200 block of South Lancelot Lane in Palatine, pulled students' ears, struck them in the head with a folder or fist, and pushed their heads toward the tables they sit at, students told investigators.
The children involved are a 7-year-old boy, two 7-year-old girls and an 8-year-old girl, police said. None were seriously injured, police said. According to police, the alleged batteries took place between Dec. 21 and Jan. 11, at North Elementary School in Des Plaines. Officials in Des Plaines Elementary School District 62 were notified of the accusations at the end of the school day Jan. 11 and immediately removed Escobedo from her duties, police said.
The next day, school officials notified Des Plaines police, who investigated with assistance from the Illinois Department of Child and Family Services, authorities said. The charges against Escobedo are Class A misdemeanors punishable by a maximum year in jail. She is scheduled to appear in court April 3.
