there is a special kind of hell for people that would do this to a mentally challenged child<3:
History is filled with those who have placed themselves squarely on the wrong side of civil rights issues, and history is never kind to them. Meet one of the newest members of this exclusive club, Perris Union High School District Superintendent Jonathan Greenberg.
Greenberg's legacy is the authorization of a 2013 undercover operation in his Perris and Menifee, CA schools, approximately 20 miles from Temecula. The operation was nearly identical to the 2012 Temecula fiasco that entrapped 9 special education students, including our son, Jesse, who has autism.
In the Perris/Menifee sting, one of the entrapped students was a 15-year-old special education student, who read at third grade level. According to sources with first-hand knowledge, after being relentlessly hounded by an adult cop in disguise, the child finally caved under the pressure. He got a vicodin pill that had been prescribed to him and sold it to the cop for $3. For this, the child was charged with a felony and did time.
At the time, Greenberg was kind enough to publicly lecture parents like my wife and me with this gem:
"Some parents will excuse their children's behavior all the way to state prison." Greenberg has not hesitated from piling on these kids since the arrest, seemingly bragging about his role in this round of institutionalized child abuse to anyone who will listen. Not sure what he was thinking, but for some reason he figured that the readers of Teen Vogue were clamoring to hear from the mind of Jonathan Greenburg. So he used the opportunity to get one more kick in the teeth of his students who spent the holidays in lockup, while he was likely celebrating with loved ones.

"We hope for them that this is the worst day of their lives." Stay classy John.
