JACKSON, Miss. (AP) A former teacher in Mississippi has been indicted on a misdemeanor charge of abusing a vulnerable person.
Fourth Circuit Court District Attorney Dewayne Richardson said Monday that Linda Winters-Johnson will be arraigned Dec. 13.
Richardson says he doesn't know whether Winters-Johnson has a lawyer to speak on her behalf.
A widely circulated video shows Winters-Johnson dragging a special education student by the hair and then striking the student with a cup on Sept. 21. The Greenville school district fired her, and state officials are seeking to revoke her teaching license.
