Apollo 1st Gear April 9, 2008 Share April 9, 2008 (edited) April 9, 2008 Teen given 12-month probation for abusing teacher By Elena Chong, Court Correspondent A YOUTH who swore at his teacher for confiscating his MP3 player in class was placed on 12 months' probation on Wednesday. Jeremy Tan Wei Liang, who turned 18 last week, will have to do 60 hours of community service and attend counselling sessions to address his anger management problem. His mother was bonded for $2,000 to ensure his good behaviour. Tan, who is working as a temporary construction worker, pleaded guilty earlier in January to using abusive words on a teacher with intent to cause her distress on April 26 last year. Tan's classmate was caught listening to music during class that day and the teacher promptly confiscated the player which belonged to Tan. Tan then confronted the teacher, who refused to return the MP3 player to him. He then used his finger to point at her nose and scolded her. He even went through her bag to search for it and continued hurling abusive words and vulgarities in Hokkien at her. Community Court judge May Mesenas told Tan to change his abusive behaviour. 'I hope this will be a lesson learnt for you,' she told him. Tan has since written a letter of apology to the teacher concerned. His mother, Madam Lim Hoon Har, told reporters outside court that her son made a mistake and had to bear the consequence. A happy and relieved Tan said: 'I feel better. I have changed.' The N-level holder wants to be a tattoo artist. http://www.straitstimes.com/Latest%2BNews/...ory_225372.html 12 months plus community work.... more siong then pervert stealing undies. haiz... tattoo artist waste time. he's better off stealing 400+ undies and selling them online. confirm ready buyers like Porker RadX NKPS Edited April 9, 2008 by Apollo ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gearoil 1st Gear April 9, 2008 Share April 9, 2008 Ever heard of the saying, of course is a translation from Chinese ...'come near black mark, will easily be stained by the black mark'! With his background and likelihood of being 'stained'...it would be wiser to choose another 'profession' or else the next time in the near future, this teen will definitely join the 'yellow ribbon ' club!
