The teenager who was charged with the death of a beloved Georgia high school teacher, had previously posted a questionable message on social media.Last Thursday (5 March), a group of five teenagers took it upon themselves to prank one of their teachers, Jason Hughes, by draping toilet paper across his trees.It’s a common prank in the US, but what happened next at the home in Gainesville, Georgia, wasn’t in the script.Hughes, whose wife said he was ‘excited’ to catch his students in the act, ran out of his house but fell into the road due to the rainy conditions, as the teens tried to speed off in cars.He was then run over by a pick-up truck, which was being driven by high school student Jayden WallaceWallace then stopped with two other teens, attempting to provide aid to the teacher until first responders arrived at the scene – though it would be too late.

Hughes would die in hospital, leaving behind a wife and two young sons, while all five teenagers involved in the prank were charged.Details behind the prank and its involvement in a ‘junior/senior’ war at school, was soon explained by police, who found a social media account listing the rules behind all pranks.As for Wallace, he was charged with first-degree vehicular homicide, reckless driving, criminal trespass, and littering on private property.The teen is being held on a $1,950 bond according to jail records viewed by The New York Post, while the other four, Elijah Tate Owens, Aiden Hucks, Ana Katherine Luque, and Ariana Cruz – all 18, were arrested and charged with criminal trespass and littering.Wallace though, now faces three to 15 years in prison, despite Hughes’ wife, Laura, stating that she is looking to have the charges dropped to avoid ‘ruining the lives of these students’.
