Corrections sergeant shocks kids with stun gun during prison visit


When it's "Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day," parents will most likely show their kids where their desk is, let them sit in their chair, introduce them to their co-workers, take them out to lunch, or maybe even let them try to do some of the work their parents do. BUT, if you worked at a prison, would you take your daughter or son to work for a day or even a few hours? Not to mention zap them with 50,000 volts with a taser.

That's just what Franklin Correctional Institution Sgt. Walter Schmidt did. He wanted to show the kids what their parents do. Mind you, he did ask their parents, and seeing as how common sense didn't exist in this group of people, they said ok.

The children suffered burn marks on their arms, and one was taken to the hospital. Schmidt was fired after 14 years with the Department of Corrections, and rightfully so.
