Florida Teacher Jennifer Hale went to the Lake County Jail charged with child abuse after she let one of her students take a hit off her Vape pen.
According to a Eustis police report, a seventh grader said a substitute teacher named Jennifer heard his friend say he wanted to vape, and that she said, “I have one,” and pulled it out.

The seventh grader says she then asked if he wanted a hit and told him not to report it.
Jennifer Hale was arrested after it happened last week at Eustis Middle School. According to the police report, it happened in the last period of the day.
“You can’t do this. You just can’t do it,” Eustis police Chief Craig Capri said. “This should be common sense.”
“She has a responsibility to that classroom to protect kids. Not abuse them,” Capri said.
According to the report, when the principal confronted Hale about what happened, she admitted to it and was escorted off campus and told not to return.
Capri says the reason she gave for doing it was surprising.
“We contacted her and she immediately post-Miranda confessed to doing it,” Capri said. “Her response was she just wanted to fit in. I don’t get it. What is there to fit in? You’re there to teach a class, not to fit in.”
