A disturbing incident in Phoenix, Arizona, has sparked widespread outrage after a teacher employed by the Dysart Unified District allegedly assaulted a lesbian couple and traumatized their young daughter at a local restaurant.
Betty Thorne, who is reportedly a teacher at Shadow Ridge High School in Surprise, Arizona, has come under fire for her actions, which have been widely condemned on social media.
Allegations of Abuse and Accusations of Sex Trafficking
According to reports, Thorne verbally and physically attacked the couple, Birdi Hilleren and her wife, after falsely accusing them of sex trafficking their daughter.
In a shocking video that has since gone viral, Thorne is heard making these baseless accusations while blocking the family’s access to the bathroom.
The incident was reportedly driven by her apparent bias and intolerance toward the couple, simply because they are lesbians.
The Shocking Video That Sparked National Outrage
The viral video captures Thorne’s aggressive behavior, as she terrorizes the family, while singing a religious song and wearing a shirt emblazoned with the word “faith.”
The video has ignited a wave of backlash, with people across the country condemning her actions and calling for accountability.
One person, Margaret, shared her thoughts on social media, saying, “Shame on you, Betty Thorne!!” and highlighting the emotional trauma the couple’s daughter endured during the ordeal.
Calls for Action and Accountability
The troubling video has raised questions about the appropriateness of Thorne’s actions, particularly given her position as a teacher in the community.
Many are now demanding that the Dysart Unified District take action in response to the incident.
The case has prompted a larger conversation about the need for tolerance, respect, and the safety of LGBTQ+ individuals and families in public spaces.
