Boy allegedly forced to urinate in front of classroom, made to wear garbage bags



A lawsuit filed by the parents of an 8-year-old boy alleges that a teacher disallowed their son to use the bathroom and made him pee into a trashcan in front of his classmates before he urinated on himself, soaking his clothes in the process.

The incident happened last November when the boy was attending Manhattan Place Elementary School in South Los Angeles in the Los Angeles Unified School District when he initially approached his teacher to use the bathroom and was told that he was not allowed. He then allegedly approached the teacher a second time and was told to pee in the trashcan, according to ABC News' Los Angeles station KABC.

"Instead of just letting him go, the teacher told him to urinate in a trashcan that was in the classroom and in front of his classmates," said the family's attorney Toni Jaramilla in a press conference last week.
"He went to another teacher to try to receive help and she proceeded to place a garbage bag on him to make an example out of him of what you should not do at school, instead of calling us and saying 'can you please bring him a change of clothes,'" said the boy's mother Sonia Mongol at the press conference.

"That employee, for whatever reason, placed two trash bags on the boy which caused further embarrassment," said Jaramilla.
