'I Would Shoot You if I Could': Substitute Teacher Arrested After Alleged Comments in South Carolina Classroom
Authorities say the teacher admitted making the threats, and the sheriff’s department issued 18 warrants for child endangerment charges.
- Substitute teacher Dejuan Antoinette Fludd faces 18 charges of unlawfully placing a child at risk following an incident involving second-grade students at St. Matthews K-8 on Wednesday.
- Warrants filed by The Calhoun County Sheriff Office allege Fludd used profanity and threatened students, saying, "I would shoot you if I could," while forcing the class to stand.
- Documents state Fludd allegedly told one child she would "light them up," and while she admitted to making the comments, she claimed to be only "playing" during the interaction.
- On Friday, a judge set a $180,000 personal recognizance bond requiring Fludd to wear an ankle monitor and attend all future court hearings.
- The Calhoun County School District confirmed it contacted law enforcement immediately upon learning of the allegations and remains fully cooperating with the ongoing investigation.
