Death of Texas teacher, 73, at hands of student allegedly covered up by school admin: wife (NYPost.com)
The wife of a Texas teacher who died after being pushed to the ground by a hulking student this month said administrators had told her he was injured after falling down.
“They lied to me,” she told The Post Friday.
Fred Jimenez, a 10-year-veteran of the Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, was corralling special needs students in a gymnasium on February 7 when the incident took place.
His wife of 25 years, Margo Jimenez, said school officials told her he had fallen while trying to shepherd a student in the proper direction.
