An elementary school principal in Florida was arrested after 100 children were found at an alcohol-infused party she hosted, police said.

Elizabeth Hill-Brodigan, the 47-year-old principal of Roosevelt Elementary School in Cocoa Beach, was arrested on January 19 after police were called for a reported house party.

When offices arrived, they found more than 100 kids dressed in “matching t-shirts.” Many of them were consuming alcohol that was available in coolers inside the house.


One child was suffering from an “alcohol-related medical event” on the principal’s lawn. The kid was “so heavily intoxicated” that the Brevard County Fire Rescue was called to treat the child, police said.

Officesaw Hill-Brodigan in her driveway turning off the outside lights before walking into her home. That meant the fire rescue team had to use their vehicle’s auxiliary lights while treating the child with the medical episode, police said.……..

I'm sure there's a simple explanation for this.

Any time I go anywhere like the mall and teenagers are around, I am immediately annoyed because they are annoying. I've completely turned into a "get off my lawn" type in my old age. Why would anyone want to voluntarily party with a bunch of teens? Sounds like hell to me.

Exactly. There's only one time I remember being at a teacher's house when I was also their pupil and it was in 6th grade so it was like 25 of us. I'm sure THAT was plenty of kids. I also remember no alcohol. lol

When Florida police responded to noise complaints at a Cocoa Beach home, they discovered a few of the usual suspects behind such complaints — marijuana, alcohol — and 100 unusual ones: children.

Elizabeth Hill-Brodigan, the 47-year-old principal of Roosevelt Elementary School, and Karly Anderson, a third-grade teacher at the school, were both arrested in the wake of a massive party, police said. However, the teens in attendance said it wasn’t the first such event.

“Parties like this happen once or twice a month,” students told police.


The teens arrived at the principal’s house at 7.45 p.m. on January 19 “to help make preparations for the party,” an arrest affidavit obtained by The Independent says. When they arrived, alcohol was already available in multiple red-and-white coolers inside the home.

An hour later, police responded to numerous complaints of noise, alcohol and drug use in Cocoa Beach, Florida. When they arrived, they noticed cars stretched down the driveway, spilling into the middle of the road. Teens were consuming alcohol and marijuana.

As they began to clear out the scene, officers conducting traffic stops saw multiple kids inside the cars wearing “matching t-shirts.” They were all coming from the “white lie party,” the affidavit says. That is a trend where attendees where white T-shirts to an event with a minor lie on them.……..

“I got herpes from a monkey” is a sentence you don’t really want to have to say
=================

They might not be the first animal that comes to mind when you think of Florida’s wildlife, but beware: wild rhesus macaque monkeys in the Sunshine State have tested positive for the Herpes B virus, and contracting it can prove deadly.

Nearly 200 rhesus macaque monkeys live in and roam Florida’s Silver Spring State Park, where they were first introduced almost 100 years ago, local outlet Click Orlando reports.

Now, they can be found all over the state, and sightings are on the rise, according to the outlet.

They might not be the first animal that comes to mind when you think of Florida’s wildlife, but beware: wild rhesus macaque monkeys in the Sunshine State have tested positive for the Herpes B virus, and contracting it can prove deadly.

Nearly 200 rhesus macaque monkeys live in and roam Florida’s Silver Spring State Park, where they were first introduced almost 100 years ago, local outlet Click Orlando reports. Now, they can be found all over the state, and sightings are on the rise, according to the outlet.

Several central Florida counties, including Marion, Seminole and Lake counties, have seen an increase in Macaque sightings over the last two years, Click Orlando reports. Similarly, several monkeys were reported roaming Orange City in Volusia County last month, CBS News reports.

Many of them carry diseases, including Herpes B virus, which can cause an “extremely rare” but “serious and even deadly” infection, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The virus, while rare, can be spread through an infected monkey’s bite or scratch; coming into contact with an infected monkey’s skin or fluid; scratching or cutting yourself on a contaminated cage or other sharp surface; or being exposed to the brain, spinal cord, or skull of the infected monkey, the CDC says.…..
