A Texas mother has been charged with child endangerment after she locked her 13-year-old child in the trunk of her car after the child tested positive for COVID-19.

Sarah Beam was charged with endangering a child by the Cypress-Fairbanks Police Department. A warrant has been issued for her arrest, according to NBC 2.

Beam reportedly pulled into a drive-thru COVID testing site in Harris County, Texas, when an officer heard a noise coming from her trunk.

When Beam opened the trunk, her 13-year-old child was found inside.

The mom explained that the had child tested positive for COVID-19 and therefore had to be quarantined, officials said.

Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District confirmed that Beam had worked for the school district since 2011. Beam had most recently worked as a Cypress Falls High School teacher. She is now on administrative leave.

"CFPD was alerted that a child was in the trunk of a car at a drive-thru COVID-19 testing site earlier this week. Law enforcement conducted a full investigation, resulting in a warrant for arrest. Thankfully, the child was not harmed," the district said in a statement, according to NBC 2.

Comment: File this under 'evidence that people's minds are disintegrating'.

At a school I was substituting, a teacher got arrested for piling the whole class in her car for Wal-Mart, to buy candy. Not all the students could fit into the back seat, so a few students rode in the trunk. Her crime was taking students off school property.without authorization, not having enough seat belts, and stuffing students in the trunk.

Olive Utter madness...

Olive One of my father's fist cars was a Hillman Minx - he managed to transport something like 16 kids in it, none in the boot, but a couple of the back parcel shelf etc.

I also remember often being in a VW Beetle with at least 4 adults and 2 kids - the front footwell was a good place to be!

Olive Fourty five years ago I loaded about 10 ten kids into the back of my pickup truck and took them swimming downtown. No one said anything, in fact I, nuts as that was, might have done that twice. I made everybody properly sit down and put their arms around each other, and NO standing up or other monkey business

Then there was the night giving a shop class; one of the kids was so thrilled about cutting some little thing on the scroll saw he looked away to his brother and said, "See Simon!! Look at th . . . " and ran his thumb into the blade. You can't hardly hurt yourself on one of those but he rather chewed up the end of his finger and it looked like a stitch or two would be a good idea. So, I sent everyone home, bundled him off to emerg' and from there called his folks to fetch him. Again, no big deal.

In the early '60s my bestie and I'd get on the bus with our .22 rifles to go target shooting at a little indoor range downtown. No one ever said a word.

Good Optics I remember one time, late 60's, a bunch of cousins wanted to go skating. My older cousin had a small car. We put 13 people in there, 10 in the back seat, 5 on the bench, and 5 on their laps, and 3 up front. When we unloaded their were a few ogly eyes watching! And the same on the ride home. No one died.

Rowan Cocoan · 2022-01-09T02:54:17Z

Good Optics Yep. We had rifle class in 7th grade and a shooting range behind the junior high school. I still have our old Marlin 60 .22 made to look like an M1 carbine.

When I was about in kindergarten, I was learning to ride a bike down the street from my house. I was leaning against the left training wheel and did a U-turn into a screeching tires car's front bumper and fell over. The man got out, assured himself that I was OK, and then insisted that I take him to my house so that my Mum would know. No one who's aware of the scam system since the mid 90s would do that now and I wouldn't blame them for not doing so.

Good Optics Easier to get by years ago cramming kids in a car or truck. I live next to an Amish community and they ride their tractors with truck beds pulled behind stuffed with families, as they go into town. I've only seen the horse and buggies on back roads Sundays.

"Thankfully, the child was not harmed,"

A bit too soon to say that. Psychological harm is very serious.

HashAttack2 · 2022-01-08T15:32:07Z

ReRan Give the kids two week solitary in an Australian "wellness" camp, that should obfuscate any psychological damage due to this event

And the “mother of the year” award goes to… The autopsies on the jabbed show slowly liquefying brains, as was predicted. I watched ‘world war Z’ last night - I think we are getting closer to such a scenario by the day!

ReRan · 2022-01-08T15:11:58Z

LadyRad I was talkkng to friend yesterday and we were remembering the many times we would discuss end of the world scenarios. And we both said never in a million years would we have thought it would involve something like this scam. We always pictured asteroids, or earthquakes, or nuclear war. And yet civilisation as we know it has been brought to its knees by a lie. A really big lie.

LadyRad · 2022-01-08T15:25:57Z

ReRan humanity has been through asteroids, earthquakes and nuclear wars plenty of times already. I think we also had a zombie apocalypse somewhere in our past (hence our collective memory and mythology around it), but not in a very long time, so I think we are due for another one. The past 2 years remind me of a disaster movie - only we are living right now through the part that happens before the first scene on the screen. That’s amazing that you still have open-minded friends left to talk with about such things!!

ReRan · 2022-01-08T17:35:18Z

LadyRad I actually am finding more all the time. It's very reassuring.

A Texas mother has been charged with child endangerment

That's insane ... it was obviously the child that was endangering it's mother and anyone it came it contact with

codis · 2022-01-08T16:13:57Z

If that was my 13 year old daughter, I would have a short conversation what that teacher. Alone in the evening, probably in some dim corner of the school yard.

HashAttack2 · 2022-01-09T13:36:07Z

codis · 2022-01-09T13:53:31Z

HashAttack2 No difference ...

HashAttack2 · 2022-01-09T14:06:21Z

codis ... The headline originally made me think the article was about a teacher that locked a student in a trunk at school, not the boot of a car ... Americans and their stupid names for car parts!

codis · 2022-01-09T15:32:31Z

HashAttack2 I'm had been looking too much movies, I guess. I immediately knew what was ment.

But having spent quite some time in the UK, I understand what you mean...

Rowan Cocoan Americans were very late to the game as far as creating self-powered vehicles ... Is it coincidence that you referred to Wisconsin, home of the first American vehicle?

The first automobile suitable for use on existing wagon roads in the United States was a steam-powered vehicle invented in 1871 by Dr. J.W. Carhart, a minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in Racine, Wisconsin. It induced the State of Wisconsin in 1875 to offer a $10,000 award to the first to produce a practical substitute for the use of horses and other animals. They stipulated that the vehicle would have to maintain an average speed of more than 5 miles per hour (8 km/h) over a 200-mile (320 km) course. The offer led to the first city to city automobile race in the United States, starting on 16 July 1878 in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and ending in Madison, Wisconsin, via Appleton, Oshkosh, Waupun, Watertown, Fort Atkinson, and Janesville. While seven vehicles were registered, only two started to compete: the entries from Green Bay and Oshkosh. The vehicle from Green Bay was faster, but broke down before completing the race. The Oshkosh finished the 201-mile (323 km) course in 33 hours and 27 minutes, and posted an average speed of six miles per hour. In 1879, the legislature awarded half the prize

Meanwhile in the UK, the snowflakes were scared of such vehicles, hence the Locomotive Act of 1865

United Kingdom Locomotive Act (1865), which required many self-propelled vehicles on public roads to be preceded by a man on foot waving a red flag and blowing a horn. This effectively halted road auto development in the UK for most of the rest of the 19th century

You talkin' bout railroad trains, Willis? Ever heard of apples and oranges?

Now - back to seriously, what's the fastest you've ever driven a motor vehicle? (Trains don't count, even if you're a conductor/engineer. ) I got both my old Supra [Link] and my Mystic Cobra [Link] each up to a little shy of 125 mph and that was enough for me. Another time I raced my Cobra on the Blue Ridge Parkway against some fast motorcycles which of course are scary at speed near cliffs, only having two tires to hold one on the road. I figured they'd burn past me but I left them and last saw them three turns behind me. I love that kind of driving.

I tell you what, this looks like serious fun. [Link] (Does anyone know if those - NasKart cars - have automatic transmissions? It's kinda hard to tell from the video. I'd damn sure prefer a stickshift.)

HashAttack2 · 2022-01-09T17:20:43Z

Rowan Cocoan Probably about 120mph ... a sustained dash to across France to catch a ferry. It was very strange slowing down to about 60 mph afterwards, it felt so slow

I've only been caught speeding the once - at 105mph (UK speed limit is max 70 mph on motorways)

Maybe we should drive around with kids locked in the boot - the compelling need to avoid being rear-ended seems an excellent excuse to drive faster than the speed limit

Rowan Cocoan · 2022-01-09T17:32:57Z

HashAttack2 Good one. That was in a car, right? (I've only ridden on a motorcycle one time in my life.) By the time I was twenty, I had been in cars pulled over by pigs - about 2/3 of the time I was driving - over forty times - easy! There never was a ticket - it was just the pigs hassling the surfers. As a passenger, when I was 15, we got busted once - my brother was driving - but all charges dropped due to lack of evidence or such. STAB! (See The Autobiography). There are so many I remember and far more I forget because, well, the cops thought that surfers all druggies or such, if you can imagine. They literally thought they were prosecuting a holy war the stupid bastards - they still do. They confused man's law with God's law, kind of like Winternights3 just did elsewhere somewhere.

I've heard they've really cracked down on car freedom in France. OTOH, I AM stoked at their protests today in the rain. Lots of them!

A most fitting punishment for this AssH, instead of jail or fine, would be to tie him up, throw him in the trunk of a squad car and let him suffer through a 24hr shift. No bathroom or food breaks. Maybe water, if its hot. Guaranteed he'll never do that again.

dean That depends on one's definition of "IQ".

I would prefer the term "common sense test".

Quote of the Day

People convince themselves of their own lies, becoming victims of their own inventions as they begin to direct their lives by standards of behavior, ideas, feelings, or instincts which do not correspond to their inner reality. What is truly serious in this matter is that the individual loses all points of reference regarding what comprises truth, and what comprises lies. He becomes used to considering as true only that which is convenient for his personal interests; everything that is in opposition to his self-esteem or in conflict with already established prejudices, he considers false.
