Anne Arundel to add school police officers
Anne Arundel County Executive John R. Leopold said Tuesday that he plans to place school resource officers at two more county middle schools in an attempt to curb student violence and bullying, the Baltimore Sun reports.
Leopold has pledged about $200,000 in funding from the forthcoming county budget to pay for school resource police officers at Corkran Middle School in Glen Burnie and Wiley H. Bates Middle School in Annapolis. Leopold said he got a request from the Parent Teacher Association at Bates to take action.

What a pity we don't have some frozen Siberian wasteland to ship these trouble-making, bullying brats (and their parents) off to. It would save a bunch of money for taxpayers and a lot of trauma for their victims.
