Connecticut Teacher Resigns After Threatening Video
News summary

Annie Dunleavy, a special education teacher in Cheshire, Connecticut, has resigned after a viral Snapchat video in which she threatened violence against supporters of former President Donald Trump. In the clip, she warned that Trump voters would 'end up on a stretcher' if they confronted her, prompting significant backlash and an investigation by the Cheshire Public Schools and local police. Following the video's circulation, Superintendent Jeff Sloan stated that Dunleavy's comments were unacceptable and did not represent the school’s values, leading to her immediate administrative leave and eventual resignation. In a subsequent interview, Dunleavy expressed regret for how her message was interpreted, asserting it was intended as a defense against perceived threats and not an incitement to violence. The incident has raised concerns among parents and community members regarding political discussions by educators and their potential influence on students. Police have stated that no criminal charges will be pursued in connection with the incident.
