A felony charge has been filed against a former classroom aide. The aide was arrested and fired after an incident involving a nonverbal autistic student. Details of the incident are not fully known, but it is reported to have occurred just days into the school year.

Further information about the case can be found through court records. A mother of a student in the class expressed frustration at having to seek out this information herself. Texas law requires a written request to activate video surveillance in certain special education classrooms, which may have played a role in the incident.
