Police: Kindergartner Brings Drugs To School
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Metro police said a 6-year-old brought drugs to school Monday.
Police found seven grams of marijuana and two grams of rock and powder cocaine in the child's pockets.
The student at Tom Joy Elementary School went to the teacher to show her what he found at home.
The teacher immediately took the student to the principal's office.
The child is developmentally challenged. There are nine students in his classroom. Police said no other students came into contact with the drugs. It didn't appear that the drugs were disturbed. The school was placed on lockdown until dismissal Monday afternoon.
"We believe that she didn't know that the school was aware that he had the drugs on him," said Sgt. Anna-Maria Williams. "So she was trying to get to the school to get them off of him."
The child's 27-year-old mother, Arthia Burrows received drug and child endangerment charges Monday. Police also are searching for her brother, who is wanted for arrest. He hasn't been charged yet.
Police said the curious 6-year-old gave them all the information they needed to take down a known drug house in East Nashville.
He told police he had his mother's "smokes."
"Our crime suppression unit had gotten a drug complaint on them, that this was place where people could go to buy marijuana and other drugs," Williams said. "So our crime suppression unit had been working on it, but hadn't had enough information to get inside. So, we got lucky as far as being able to get them at the same time to take the drugs off the child."
Police said Burrows does not have a criminal record.
The Tennessee Department of Children's Services removed five children from the home. Even though Metro Schools has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to drugs, the child will not be expelled because he was not aware he was bringing drugs to school.
first
PERREZ I LOVE YOU !
whoa
WHAT THE …. ?
Some people should NOT have kids!
WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW!
That's horrible! so this will chear you up… PEREZ WOULD LOVE THIS…. HILARIOUS!
http://media.myfoxnewmexico.com/special/FOF/video/top10/top10_aprilshute.html
So many people who can't have kids and want to so much. And so many damn people who have them and don't take care of them at all… jerks.
wow.
strange how kids have more common sense than some adults do these days
good kid for telling on his mom for doing what she shouldn't have been doing with three small kiddos at home.
i'm so glad the kid didn't get in trouble for being the "smokes" to show and tell………
OMG….it is kinda funny but really really SAD…the kid is probably mentally challenge cause the momma smoked rock while she was preggers with him
Thank Goodness for 'Say NO to Drugs' Campaign in schools. He felt comfortable going to his teacher!
OMG WAT there are white people that do drugs as well my god who would of thought… Now I hope all ya racist out there can see stop blamin BLAKS and coming down on black when crimes happen. When ya race as we can see is NOT perfect. So can we all see now color dont matter period.
first!!! first!!
Wow that is just really sad on the mothers part. I agree some people should not have kids.
Wow, thats so rediculous. I cant even imagine. Atleast he showed it to an adult though. The same thing happened to my friend when he was younger except he smoked it haha & has been addicted ever since.
so so sad, I live in Nashville. This was on the news last night, poor child.
Re: LS – The child and the Mommy are African American.You can see for yourself at WKRN channel 2 news in Nashville. This happens to all races, it is terrible to be a parent and hooked on drugs.
The boy was probably "emotionally challenged" because his mom used drugs while pregnant. Poor Kid.
I've worked as a social worker for children and a preschool teacher for 2 years…..
I hate to say that these kind of things happen all the time.
What EVER you (parents) do at home, your children will talk about at school.
They look up to you and think everything you do or say is SO COOL.
Guaranteed, they will discuss your actions with anyone who will listen.
Re: LS – Look at WKRN in Nashville, the Mom and child are Black.
This is really sad, and very disturbing.
Re: LS –
excuse me… but where in the post does it say the race of the child/mother?
Furthermore… no one brought up race at all. Also… as you say, "So can we all see now color dont matter period." no it does not… but ignorance does, as you clearly are with both your post and the clear murder of the english language. Open a book.
Re: mommyx5 – You right… I jus get tired of when it is black all these racist come out. But when it's white they are quite. My point was GET OFF THE COLOR THE COLOR DONT COMMITT THE CRIMES PEOPLE DO…. PERIOD… ALL RACES ARE POOR.. ALL RACE ARE RICH.. ALL RACES DONE CRIMES… ALL RACES ARE IN JAIL…. SO TO THE RACIST PEOPLE OUT THERE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT'S YA POINT ON DOWNGRADING OTHER RACES WHEN YOUR NOR MINES IS PERFECT. PERIOD.
fatty perez.. sounds like your mom, hey?
Crack whores and idiots should not be allowed to bring children into the world.
there you go "Maury Poviching" again
Re: LS – I agree. Race does not matter when it comes to crime. However, this case is a poor example to use for your statement that white people also do drugs considering if you watch the video on the news website you will see that this happened to an African American family. Race isn't the factor in crimes. Its socioeconomic backgrounds and upbringing.
Re: LS –
uh..yeah - why is the kid 'white'? because the shitty montage photo at the top of the post shows a white kid? as "It's Me" noted, there is no reference to race - though the mother's name is "Arthia Burrows"…can i be ignorant as you to assume "Arthia" is a 'black' name…?
take the adviceo n opening a book…hell, send me your address and i'll mail you one.
IT'S ME— I guess you have read the post posting over the couple of days. Ok let me refresh ya mind. The posting about the black dude who tried to cash 360 Billion dollar check. Have your read the comment on there sweety. O ok so until then mayb we can talk and u can see what i am talking about PERIOD. ty.
Re: LS –
honestly?
Re: LS idiot protection – MY POINT WAS CRIMES HAPPEN TO ALL RACES PERIOD I AM WRITIN THE RACIST ON HERE. MAYB U SHOULD GO LOOK AT THE ARTICLE PEREZ HAD UP HERE ABOUT THE BOY WHO TRY TO CASH 360 BILLION CHECK U GO READ THOSE COMMENTS AND TAKE YA TIME RESPONDING BACK TO ALL THE RACIST COMMENT ON THERE. CRIMES HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THE PERSON NOT TEH COLOR. I GET TIRED OF HEARING OH BLACKS ARE LAZY AND NO OTHER RACE ISS HMMM OR BLACK ARE ALL ON WELFARE AND NOOOO OTHER RACE IS HMMMMMMMMM… IF U NOT BLACK i DONT EXCEPT U TO UNDERSTAND WHAT I AM SAYING….
Re: LS – Furthermore, you seem so angry about the racism issue that you yourself instigated. No one even mentioned it until you went on a tirade. Your behavior is denouncing your own argument that "color don't matter".(sic).
she should be put in jail and her kids taken away forever….some people should not have kids! Morons.

LS - Those articles you are mentioning are about stupid people who happen to be black. There are A LOT of stories on this web site, and others, that have articles about stupid people who are white. You seem to be the only one making this about race. But of course we, non color seeing people, are used to black people pointing out that we are racist. YOU are the main reason racism is still alive today. Get over yourself and check the mail, i think someone sent you a book!
I like drugs
There cool.
Yay marijuana.
I haven't tried crack yet because I'm only 14, I should.
Yesterday I had the best weed of my life,
Everything was slo-mo, and the trees were like jello and I felt like I was a cartoon.
Drugs rock!!!
Re: LS – Go find that post and comment about racism then. At least your words might seem relevant to the discussion, and you'll be spreading your message to the users who offended you in the first place. P.S. Standard internet etiquette says that by using all caps you are yelling, which really isn't helping your cause.
The person who wrote that article must be a classmate of this kid. Not.well.written.
i hate fucking deadbeat parents
Parents of the year.
That is really, truly sad.
Some people are not meant to be parents… She took her role as a mother for granted. I hope that her kids get placed in a better home!
Re: whitey – Whitey honestly with that name whitey already tells me what u r.. Next!
Once again: I SO wish you would abstain from posting real world catastrophic disgusting news! (illnesses, injustice, murder, abuse…) I go to Perez for ESCAPISM, as I used to go to People mag 4, but they keep publishing all that junk about tragic events, killings, whatnot, just to seem less superficial. I CRAVE the superficial (I'm a shrink by trade…LOL) I want to go to Perez to UNWIND, be silly and merry, at least for a few minutes a day… and you post kids with tumors, kids shot by their dads… get it? (as if you read our posts, right?)
Re: LS – and if you really want to try and make a valid point, you should probably brush up on your grammar because no one is going to listen and or respect your opinion if you don't know how to spell correctly. But then again, your point didn't make any sense so instead, you're the one who's looking like the racist fool.
Geez people. Just read the story. No racist comments needed. Hell, we are all human, we all have blood running through our system. And we all make mistakes. Anyhow, poor kid. Sometimes these things happens for the best. Good that he brought the drugs to school or his mother would have never been caught. hopefully she'll get the help that she needs and the kid won't be put in some deadbeat's foster home!
Re: YOU make it about race – LIKE I SAID GO READ TEH ARTICLE PEREZ HAD UP HERE ABPUT THE BOY WHO TRY TO CASH 360 BILLIONS CHECK. AND U READ ALL THE RACIST SHIT THAT WAS SAID CALLIN HIM A MONKEY ETC ETC. I AM FAR FROM BEIN A RACISTS I AM POINTING OUT THINGS TO THE RACIST WHO COME DOWN ON BLACK PEOPLE THAT THERE OWN AS WELL DO CRIMES SO STOP LOOKING AT COLOR WHEN IT COMES TO BLACK IT'S NOT THE COLOR U ASS READ WHAT I WROTE FIRST… I AM TRYING TO GIVE THEM EXPLAIN LIKE LOOK WHITE PEOPLE DO CRIMES TOO NOT JUST BLACK MY GOD READDDDDDDDDDDD
As I resident of the "fine" state of Tennessee I must say I am not shocked that it happened, a little surprised that it was in Nashville and not Memphis. This is a very typical occurrence here, as people just do not give a fuck… And he IS probably developmentally challenged due to her drug use during pregnancy, once again very typical to do drugs while pregnant in Tn, most of them are younger than Jamie Lynn when they have their first, and sometimes even 2nd… it is so sad… I can not wait to get the hell out of this place….
something smells fishy here…why would the child take it to school to show the teacher what he 'found'…how many small children find things and DONT take it to mommy…and the fact that they say he is 'developmentally challenged' as well makes me think he would have gone to mommy first also…mabye a conspiracy between the school and police to bring down a known drug house; afterall what attorney is going to put a developmentally challnged child on the stand….
WOW!
It's so much easier to score when your parents are your dealers. It's also a nice motivator to get kids to do their chores. Finish your homework and we'll go out back and burn one, Jimmy.
The Gotti boys are a bunch of greasy pussies.
These are the things that blow my mind about children today versus the way the world was when I was one, myself–
Re: LS – MAYBE YOU SHOULDNT STEREOTYPE PEOPLE … YOU ARE DOING EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ISH ABOUT… JUST AN FYI
…calm down.
Re: LS –
just to let ya know, i live in nashville, the kid was black not white, that picture has nothing to do with it, just a generic kid & a back pack shot. Doesn't matter either way, but it puts your argument to rest
I'm from the Nashville area and this was all over the news yesterday….it scares the HELL out of me that kids my daughter's age can get such easy access to sh*t like this. It's all kinds of true, BTW-showed the "mother" on TV and everything.
BTW, you RULE, Perez!!
My all time favorite Hollywood gossip site!
Add this to my already long list of reasons why I'm childfree!!!!
Re: LS – Me being a black man i would like to thank for being a black person who make other black people look bad. The bad grammar and making no sense at all is really help the black cause. Im sure no one is gonna think we are ignorant and uneducated now. Your post just saved the world and we are now completely racist and sterotype free. Idiot.
Re: LS – Learn to speak fucking English.
Ls,
I have to agree with the other people. Your the only one who made it about race. By constantly bringing up race it sends the message that we are different and not the same. Your comments are all over the place and pretty stupid. Learn to spell correctly and not use slang it doesn't make you look very bright. Stupid point and you wonder why everyone on here is tearing you a new one. I don't believe in white guilt either and I think everyone is pretty tired and fed up when people pull the race card.
Re: dontletmymomknow – I totally relate to where you are at… I hope you can contact me somehow.
LS—
you sound like a complete MORON, "ya" cunt!!! you're easily the most racist bastard on here so fucking stop harping on about race you LOSER.
PS i think you would really benefit from a few english lessons- you actually can't even string a sentence together- you heard of PUNCTUATION??? U COUNTRY HICK
Blacks are more racist than anyone!
To #15…….I'm sure she won't white, she was prolly Mexican.
If you look at all the horrible posts that LS was referring to (the guy that tried to cash the 360 billion check) then you will see what LS is talking about. True… the comments about that article majorly crossed the line and what was being said was so uncalled for. LS was just trying to make a point that race shouldn't be a factor. I completely see why LS is so upset about it…I am too. And believe me it is painful to see all the racism in the world…just b\c someone has a darker skin tone than you. It's sad…
Re: english_cunt – why so harsh….dang
So i am guessing the mom an brother are african american
THIS IS SO SAD BUT I WANT TO KNOW IS THIS KID WHITE? BECAUSE I REMEMBER A BLACK GETTING EXSPELLED FOR A MINOR ISSUE WITH A LITTLE GIRL .I DO BELIEVE THE KID AND HIS MOTHER KNEW HE HAD DRUGS THIS IS AMERICA AND ONCE AGAIN IT IS PROVEN TO BE A RACIST COUNTRY
lol thats pretty much the state of America in a nut shell
Re: LS – That made no sense, all the drug dealers I've dealt with are black. Maybe you should think about going back to school and learning how to type a sentence correctly.
Re: LS –
p.s.
the family isn't white…they are black….i live in nashville and saw it on the news
but yes i think we are all aware that white people do in fact do drugs…but thanks for the memo
Re: HONEY LUV – I think they've already established that it was a black kid.
Re: LS –
p.s. The family is black not white. I live in nashville and saw it on the news.
I think everyone is aware that white people do drugs too, but thanks for the poorly written memo.
Re: LS – You are digging yourself a hole. Your argument does not make sense here. No one said anything about race or color, you did. If you want your comments to effect people who are racist, then post them with the article you keep mentioning. Here you just sound uneducated and close minded.
Re: RR – I AM GIVING AN EXample AND SHOWING HOW IT FEELS FYI
Re: Bigthreebaby – OH SRY NEXT TIME I WILL COMMENT ON THE ARTICLE THAT CALLED BLACK PEOPLE LAZY OOOPS MY BAD.. DON'T MATTER THOSE RACIST WROTE REMARK WHEN IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ARTICLE ….GO SAY SOMETHING TO THEM AS WELL… TYYY
LS- why is the focus not on the poor child but on the race? you're so ignorant!
Re: Meg – stfu How's that better for you..Obvisouly my typo means nothing you was able to read and make ya dumb comment.
Re: ALR – I am not focus on the race sweety read what i said. TY
Re: LS – Wow! Is that your comeback comment? Your grammar is still really shitty. Maybe you should quit wasting time and go back to school… just a suggestion though.
Re: LS –
ok, let me try another approach. I'm going to try to you words and phrasing you might understand. I knows what yous sayin but you is the one focus on the race sweety. i knows dat it sux dat peeps keep hatin on blaks but wut yur doin is only makin it worst. everyone committ the crimes. dis has nothin to do with the boy who tried to cash the 360 billion dollar check. This post is regardin a boy wit the drugs.
Re: LS – Another racist black! Big surprize! You people always make it about race. Your more racist than anyone! Black people try to always turn it around, so they can cry "poor me". Nobody said anything about race until your stupid ass did!
omg-omg- wat kind of person would give a child drugs- this world is coming to an END
what kind of loser leaves drugz laying around where they child can get 2 it?! So stupid
Re: Meg – STFU betta
Re: LS – I guess they're accepting anyone these days. Good for you! I really need to get off this website, I feel like my brain cells are diminishing by the second chatting with you.
OMG!!!
Ok, LS, I feel your pain with people sometimes bashing the black race. I myself am black. Whites sometimes bash blacks, blacks sometimes bash whites, and so on and so on. Get over it. You're not helping yourself either by typing in all caps, mispelling words, using incorrect tences, all with no punctuation marks. I must agree with a few others here, don't get offended, but please educate yourself. Cell phone texting grammer isn't accepted in the real world.
What the hell is happing to the world. You know you have a developmentally challenged child and you use drugs, in my book your nothing but stupid B**t. What if something were to happen to the mother then who would take care of the child. I swear some people should NEVER be allowed to care or have a child. I will pray for that little child.
OMG I am so sick of fucked up parents getting cut slack again and again and again.
take the fucking kids away from these assholes.
It's such a shame that so many children have to be raised with UNFIT parents. These innocent children then become a product of their own surroundings when they get older.
que triste…
Re: Ashamed – while it was nice what you said, you can't seem to spell either. It's grammar with an a and it's tenses, not tences.
thats FUCKING HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! how can parents do that shit around there kids?? those fucks should go 2 jail ASAP!!
Re: ha – FUCK YOU,FUCKER
fucking hate motherfuckers like you..
Re: Eaunanisme – and motherfuckers like you,
STFU, i fucking hate black people like you
nigz.
This is exactly why I think all prospective parents should have to go to classes and pass an exam before being able to have children.
All females should have to have a contraceptive implant as soon as they get their first period.
Re: LS – did you ever hear of statistics?????
and please before you put in your comments please learn grammer and proper spelling
Re: YOU make it about race –
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! statistics
That kid is a freakin' snitch!!!!!
She should have kept her weed hidden next to her vibrator….like I do!!!!
Crack is wack!!!
Re: Bella –
No, shes right. Even though her grammer is extremly bad and hard to understand… she has a point.
Every time perez posts ANYTHING about a BLACK person we always see loads and loads of comments that are very very racist. Like that KKK person always saing "get the noose" or making racist knock knock jokes
It never fails. And for you to say that black people are the most racist is completly wrong.
Anyone who is a long time reader of this site knows….
Have yall ever read a black person type racist comments after any of those stories. Like the guy who locked his daughter in the basement or that perv who f***ed a picnic table?
You all are lashing out on my illiterate friend because you know that shes right and that these facts are true.
