A grainy video at the center of a now-overturned conviction of a New Jersey middle school teacher for allegedly kicking a chair out from under a student was released to the public for the first time on Monday.

Kimberley Peschi, 42, of Galloway, was originally found guilty of simple assault after she was accused of pulling a 12-year-old student’s chair backwards at Belhaven Middle School in Linwood in 2017.

The sixth-grader, whom she was supervising during lunch in the cafeteria, had been leaning back in the chair when Peschi kicked the legs out from the chair, causing him to fall and hit his head on the floor.


quote:

But following an appeal by Peschi, Superior Court Judge John Rauh overturned the guilty verdict on May 3 this year and took the order requiring her to forfeit her teaching license off the table.

Rauh said that, after looking at the video, Peschi’s claim that she was trying to stabilize the chair was 'plausible', according to The Press of Atlantic City.

Her reaction after the fall did not indicate “trying to stabilize”

There was no attempt to stabilize the chair, either.

Weird way for a teacher to flirt with her student before she bangs him.

That just looks like a teacher that’s sick of this kid’s shite.

Looks like she tried to kick the seat of the chair back to level like "sit your arse down."

If she was trying to knock the kid down, I would have kicked the leg.

Not only that but the video clearly shows her stick her foot up onto the top of the back of the chair, and pull that fricker down. I bet she done told him a million times to not lean in the chair, was on her period that day, and one of her other students broke up with her. So yeah she had a reason to not give a frick that day.

This became a case??? Whoever blew this up (probably the parents) need to grow some thicker skin. There's a difference between protecting your child from cruelty and keeping them from learning life lessons.

Starting to think both judges and attorneys are becoming more retarded over time. She just stares at the kid after she kicked the chair legs out Didn’t bend down to help him if it was an “accident”

Since when did tipping over some one leant back in their chair become assault? America has gotten soft!

She 100 percent put her foot on the top back of the chair and pulled her leg back causing the fall probably to make a point. Then he hit his head.

Northfield Municipal Judge Timothy Maguire debated this when he found her guilty....she wasn't stabilizing the chair & Superior Court Judge John Rauh is either a retard or got paid.

This is good. Teachers should be able to do things like this in school when kids aren’t listening. The judge probably feels the same. Intentional but warranted.

What? He reaction alone shows she wasn’t trying to help him.

If this was a male teacher, he’d be under the jail by now, much less in it
