High School Teacher Smokes Dope With Students

(Eastlake, Ohio) First-year Eastlake North High School math teacher, Anthony Minnillo, 30, was arraigned on felony corruption charges in Willoughby Municipal Court for smoking marijuana with his students on at least six occasions. According to Eastlake Detective Frank Bergant:

"After school, he would meet them at Jakse Park and smoke dope with them," the detective said. "During his sixth-period lunch, he would follow students to a Vine Street apartment and party with them and come back and teach. Some people eat lunch; he smokes it."

As is typical, high school students couldn't keep the secret, rumors flew through school and the principal called the police. After an investigation, detectives made an arrest.

Minnillo resigned his $42,500 per year teaching position. He's apologetic and mourns the loss of his job. A court date of Dec. 2nd has been set and, if convicted, he faces over 19 years in prison.

"He was just a partying type of guy," [Detective] Bergant said. "He said he's been smoking dope all his life."

It's been contended that marijuana use makes a person stupid. Minnillo's exceedingly dimwitted decision to smoke dope with his students supports that contention.
