S3 Ep120: Ep. 120: The Heartbreaking Story of Mr. Fred

Today's episode begins at 20:27 and yes we chat a lot today, but I promise it is all relevant to the case and our own personal experience inside the classroom, because this is something we are passionate about.


Teachers and staff members working with special education students in the Northside Independent School District expressed their distress over a series of violent incidents, highlighting the urgent need for improved staffing, training, and support. The plea for action came in the wake of a tragic event on February 17, 2024, when Alfred "Mr. Fred" Joseph Jimenez, a 73-year-old instructional assistant at Brandeis High School, sustained fatal injuries while attempting to intervene with a student. Jimenez's death was deemed a homicide and is under investigation by the San Antonio Police Department.
