Ex-Morehouse Student Sentenced to Life in Prison

I recieved my current event from the Ledger Enquirer. It was published on Monday, August 31, 2009. This news article is about a Ex-Morehouse student from Jonesboro, Georgia getting sentenced to life in prison for killing one of his former classmates. A Clayton County Superior Court Judge, Deborah Bennefield sentenced Miles Allen to two life sentences plus seven years in prison on Monday in the 2006 killing of Carlnell Walker. The jury convicted Allen on 11 of 12 counts, including murder, aggravated assault, and kidnapping. He is one of four men charged with murder of Carnell Walker. Prosecutors say that his murder involved eight hours of torture. Allen stomped, beat, stabbed, and doused Walker with gasoline before dumping him inside of a car trunk outside of Walker's house.

Cell Phone Policy

I do not agree with the new cell phone policies at all. I think that it is very unfair for the administrators to be able to take things that do not even belong to them. I think that they should just write the student up, suspend them, or give them in school suspension like it has always been. Honestly I do not think that cell phones are that big of a distraction to my school. Personally I think that the staff at my school should be worried about our school making ayp because we did not mak it last school year. It is not fair at all expecially when they are not even paying the phone bill and cell phones also help students in emergencies.
