Teen sentenced for vomiting on teacher
The Associated Press

OLATHE -- A high school student convicted of vomiting on his Spanish
teacher has been ordered to spend the next four months cleaning up
anytime someone throws up in a police car.

Johnson County Magistrate Judge Michael Farley said during the
sentencing Tuesday that he considered the boy's actions "an assault upon
the dignity of all teachers." He also said he hoped to receive a "full
confession."

The teen, now 17, was charged with a misdemeanor count of battery in
June in the juvenile division of Johnson Country District Court.

During the last day of classes at Olathe Northwest High School, the teen
vomited on Spanish teacher David Young as he turned in his textbook.

The boy's attorney, Brian Costello, said the teen vomited because he was
nervous about his final exams.

But two other students testified that the teen said he threw up
intentionally. One girl said the teen had told her in advance that he
planned to throw up on Young on the last day of school. The girl wasn't
in class when the teen threw up, but she testified that when she saw the
boy later he told her, "You missed it. I did it."

Young said the student, who was failing his class, made no effort to
avoid throwing up on him.

"I was just sort of stunned," he said.
