Texas Elementary School Hit With Two Ugly Scandals, Murder And Revenge Porn
A Texas elementary school has reportedly been rocked recently by two major scandals involving staff … with revenge porn and murder on the menu.
The nightmare began to unfold at Adriane Mathews Gray Elementary School near Houston when one of the female teachers shot a video of her bare breasts while surrounded by a bunch of children’s books and toys on campus.
Another clip — filmed by the teacher — showed her yanking down her pants and removing her panties to expose herself in a bathroom.
What’s even nuttier is that the teacher made no attempt to conceal her identity, with her staff ID reportedly on display at one point.
The woman — whose name has been withheld for the time being — claimed that her former boyfriend got his hands on the videos and disseminated them after they called it quits. She filed a complaint with the police, alleging that her ex was engaging in revenge porn.
As for her punishment, the teacher reportedly resigned back in February for unrelated reasons, but is now under criminal investigation, though she has not been charged … at least not yet. The school first learned about her X-rated flicks this past Wednesday.

Around that time, community activist Quanell X held a press conference, bashing the teacher for her tawdry behavior. Check out the vid … it’s worth the watch.
Meanwhile, on Monday, another staffer from the school was found dead — the victim of a possible homicide.
The body of Laura Smith — who worked as the school’s Early Childhood Special Education Aide — was discovered inside her home.
On Tuesday — the day after her body was found — Smith’s husband abruptly quit his job at the Harris County Precinct 4 Constable’s Office as the local sheriff’s office launched a murder probe.
Investigators have not released any other details on the case, nor have they disclosed a possible motive.

'The Dead Don’t Hurt' is a tender love story and a subversive Western
One of the many charms of The Dead Don’t Hurt is that you can’t immediately tell whether it’s trying to be an old-fashioned Western or a revisionist one. It has a lot of familiar genre signposts: men riding horses across rugged landscapes, a bloody shootout in a saloon, and two actors, Viggo Mortensen and Vicky Krieps, who bring traditional movie-star charisma to a tender love story.
But at times the film feels casually subversive. The first of those horsemen we see is not a cowboy but a knight in shining armor — a figure out of a child’s fantastical dream. And then there’s the way the movie plays with time: That shootout, which technically happens at the end of the story, is instead shown at the very beginning.
Mortensen, who wrote and directed the movie, trusts us to know the Western well enough by now that he can play around with the form without losing our attention. He isn’t attempting a radical reinvention of the genre, but he is using its conventions to tell a different and politically resonant kind of story.
It’s especially significant that the two lead characters are both immigrants. Mortensen stars as Holger Olsen, a wandering Danish-born carpenter who finds himself in San Francisco in the 1860s. That’s where he meets Vivienne, a French Canadian florist, played by Krieps, who’s every bit as independent-minded as he is.
The two fall in love, and Vivienne moves with Olsen to a dusty Nevada town called Elk Flats. Because the story is told out of sequence, we already know some bad things are headed their way, but for now, the mood is light and even comical as Vivienne grouchily sets about tidying their wooden shack of a home.
Vivienne isn’t one for domestic confinement, and she soon gets a job bartending at the saloon, where she catches the eye of one of the nastiest customers in town: Weston Jeffries, played by Solly McLeod, the brutish son of a wealthy rancher. Meanwhile, with the Civil War under way, Olsen decides to join the Union Army, to Vivienne’s fury.
One of the best things about The Dead Don’t Hurt is that it honors Vivienne’s grit and capability while also acknowledging how alone and vulnerable she is in this hostile, male-dominated environment. Several months after Olsen leaves, Vivienne gives birth to a baby boy under circumstances that are shrouded in some mystery. Years later, Olsen returns to Vivienne and the child, but it isn’t an entirely happy reunion, and they face a grim reckoning with the town and some of its most corrupt individuals.
Mortensen made his feature directing debut with the 2020 drama Falling, in which he played a gay man trying to take care of his ailing, bigoted father. With The Dead Don’t Hurt, he uses a story set in the past to comment on issues that are still with us in the present, from male violence against women to the complexity of immigrant relationships with their adopted country. Even as Vivienne embraces her life as an American settler, she proudly clings to her French Canadian roots, sometimes dreamily recalling the stories her mother told her about Joan of Arc — an obvious hero for a woman trying to forge her own unorthodox path through life.
As a director, Mortensen handles the material with quiet assurance; even when he cuts back and forth through time, he never loses the narrative thread. He also gives a gently grounded performance as Olsen, a decent man who sometimes makes impulsive, reckless decisions.
But this is ultimately Krieps’ movie. She’s often played women chafing against their proscribed stations in life, in dramas like Phantom Thread and Corsage. Here, she captures the indomitable spirit of a woman who’s making her way in a strange land and is determined to find and nurture beauty in even the harshest circumstances.
