A Fucking Honor Student?

Correct us if we're wrong, but didn't it used to be difficult to be an honor student? We recall the honor students from our youth and, deservedly or not, they tended to be bookworms, a bit on the geeky side and quiet to a fault. In other words, they were dedicated students. They may have belonged to the brainy clubs (chess, yearbook, Latin, whatever), some may have been lettered in sports, but they definitely weren't stoners. And they most definitely didn't have arrest records like this jagoff:
  • A 16-year-old boy drank vodka, smoked marijuana and took ecstasy before he stole a car and crashed into a 911 police dispatcher, killing her as he tried to elude officers, Cook County prosecutors said Monday.

    Preliminary tests showed that Marquis Harrison’s blood-alcohol level was .186 — more than twice the .08 legal limit to drive — following his arrest Sunday morning,
  • Minutes before Adkins was hit, Harrison stole the Range Rover while the 45-year-old owner of the SUV fed a parking meter box on North Michigan Avenue, Costello said.

    The motorist had left the Range Rover running when Harrison, who told police he drank and took drugs at a party, jumped in, Costello said.

  • Harrison was previously sentenced to probation as a juvenile for two counts of possession of a stolen motor vehicle in Kane County, Costello said.

    He is an honors student at Urban Prep Charter Academy and plays football and basketball, assistant public defender Preston Collins said.

A complete waste of a human being destroying countless lives and depriving society of a contributing member who by all accounts was a credit to her profession, community and family. And the media feeds it by reporting he's an "honors student"? Maybe someone ought to be asking how low the bar has been set that a twice convicted car thief and habitual drug and alcohol abuser can make the honor roll.

Outrage is only one of the emotions we're feeling right about now.

At all the Catholic High Schools that I know about, there is a decent percentage of Honor Students that do drink a bit too much.

http://charterschoolscandals.blogspot.com/2010/07/urban-prep-academy-charter-high-school.html

A compilation of news articles about charter schools which have been charged with, or are highly suspected of, tampering with admissions, grades, attendance and testing; misuse of funds and embezzlement; engaging in nepotism and conflicts of interest; engaging in complicated and shady real estate deals; and/or have been engaging in other questionable, unethical, borderline-legal, or illegal activities. This is also a record of charter school instability and other unsavory tidbits


* According to the Illinois Interactive School Report Card, there were 166 freshmen enrolled in 2007, Urban Prep's first year. Of these original freshmen, the Tribune reports that 107 are graduating seniors. This yields an overall school graduation rate of 64%, or nearly 6 points lower than the average district rate of 69.8%.
* Just as they struggled as entering freshmen, as reported by the school's founder, many of these graduates will likely struggle in college given the school's composite state high school examination results of 15%, compared with the Chicago average of 28%.

With these new figures, the overall graduation rate at Urban Prep goes down to 57%. So, it begins to look more and more as though Urban Prep's real "accomplishment" is refusing to graduate any senior who has not been accepted into college…

How the fuck does his grade point average or athletic ability pertain to this case? This is something his asshole defense attorney will be saying at his sentencing for a plea of mercy, not something the media should be saying.

Is this supposed to make the Adkins family feel better? Not only do they lose a loved one but they have to hear from the media about this jagoff's fine qualities. This makes me fucking sick.

The whole story to me was slanted to try to evoke some sort of sympathy for this shithead and his mother. Totally disgusting. All his mother can say is he did a bad thing and now the rest of his life is ruined..HIS LIFE? Are you kidding me? Maybe she should look in the mirror and ask herself why her 16 y/o was out drinking, drugging and stealing cars at 6am. Makes me think of a line from a movie I once heard.

It's not a big stretch, SCC. As a teen, I attended a prestigious Catholic HS in the Chicago area. The
guys with the highest GPAs were always the ones
you'd hear doing or dealing drugs, stealing or disappearing with Daddy's Jag for an entire weekend, etc. So this doesn't surprise me at all. Plenty of so-called 'future success stories' walking around out there seeking various thrills, no matter how dangerous. And you know what? Oftentimes, we as cops as the enablers, because many times when we find out the 'backgrounds' of these little darlings after they wind up in the back of a squad, we'll often help by cutting them a whole lot of slack, when maybe what they really need is an overnight stay in the crossbar hotel to straighten their asses out.

The information on what he did in school isn't appropriate. School is out. Why do they always build up the bad guy as he's not a bad guy. How wbout just reporting on what he did. This kid could have killed many more. He put every officer and citizen he passed in danger. He stole a car. He uses drugs. He drives drunk. He is a criminal. No one is safe with anyone having behavior like this. Now this criminal should pay for his actions. And who cares what he did or didn't do at school, home, neighborhood, church, and sports. The media needs to focus on why he made the news. He was out of control and killed a working person, how about the fact that he killed a person trying to make the world a better place by doing the right thing, living a clean life and making the world a better place by going to work every day.

Who cares what grades this guy got. He failed in the real world.

Apparently, this is part of our quickly turning socialized society in which the field of education wants ALL of our youth to feel good about themselves and think that they are worthwhile human beings. Unfortunately, they are proving to be just the opposite!

Many schools have already eliminated 'class ranking'. How long will it be before all tests in our schools will be scored like our police exams where people will be passed on a lottery basis so all of the DUMMIES will be able to think they are as valuable to society as anyone else only to continue their claim to welfare checks for generations to come???

What a great institution of higher learning our prison system must be. Perhaps we can close all of our ghetto schools and have all of the imprisoned 'honor students' teach the impressionable youth of society. How much worse could they do than the Chicago Public Schools have done?

The bonus? What a great way to save all of the money that is being flushed down the tubes of public education... just let one failed system work to correct the other one. It's a win/win situation that will save BILLION$ of tax dollars so we can fund the legitimate pension funds that the Daley Crime Family has been plundering for two decades!

Dear members of the news media.........an HONOR student? Really?
Let me see if I understand you correctly. A PRIOR car theft offender that is legally DRUNK two times past the legal limit, UNDER THE INFLUENCE of illegal drugs, entering a motor vehicle to STEAL what does not belong to him, ELUDING the police, STRIKING a police vehicle, LEADING the police on a high speed chase and ultimately CRASHING into a vehicle driven by my friend and being the ONLY reason that she is no longer here on this Earth; show me where HONORABLE conduct has been exhibited anywhere during these actions.
This shit-filled, walking meat-sack has probably been given almost everything in his life at the expense of decent, hard-working taxpaying citizens and guess what? Everything is still not enough. Who are you going to blame media? Society? The school system? The police?
How about we start with the person whose actions put these sequence of events in motion? Your poor, innocent little HONOR student. I will reserve comment on his parental upbringing for another rant.
You media fucking vermin are no better than the rest of these criminal pieces of shit. Pleasant dreams fuckers, try selling your garbage to Marci's family and then get on your knees and pray to God Almighty that this should never happen to someone you know and love. I would love to see then if you still consider him to be an HONOR student.

Somehow I don't think the comparison you make equates to a shitbird child of shitbirds and kids being kids. This 'kid' was already a thug by the time he was 12. Bad comparison.

You sir, have read my mind. Without this dumbass leaving his Range Rover unattended while running, this whole incident wouldn't have occurred and the poor innocent victim would still be alive. Isn't there some law that says you cannot leave a car unattended while running? If so, I hope he gets charged with that.

That liberal piece of shit Sarah Schulte on abc 7 news the morning after the accident had what she said was the department's chase policy and the balancing chart needed to chase. She then went on to say that if the most serious offense was traffic that CPD could not pursue! Then going on to say CPD has some explaining to do. Are you fucking serious?
Dear Sarah, the moment this honor roll fucking animal backed up in attempt to strike the coppers during the initial stop, all bets were off. It's an aggravated battery at the least and if you had half a fucking clue, you and the predominantly police hating crew you work with wouldn't be blaming the police for everything like you always do.
Wake up and smell the shit you media parasites are shoveling! A drunk, high, criminal is responsible for this tragic event, not the police. 90% of the media in this town is truly a disgrace and you are no exception!

It's not a big stretch, SCC. As a teen, I attended a prestigious Catholic HS in the Chicago area. The
guys with the highest GPAs were always the ones
you'd hear doing or dealing drugs, stealing or disappearing with Daddy's Jag for an entire weekend, etc. So this doesn't surprise me at all. Plenty of so-called 'future success stories' walking around out there seeking various thrills, no matter how dangerous. And you know what? Oftentimes, we as cops as the enablers, because many times when we find out the 'backgrounds' of these little darlings after they wind up in the back of a squad, we'll often help by cutting them a whole lot of slack, when maybe what they really need is an overnight stay in the crossbar hotel to straighten their asses out.

He's a jagoff and a useless piece of shit, that much is true...But Zero Tolerance is not a criminal charge, it is an administrative procedure with sanctions against your license if under the age of 21 and with bac of .01 - .07....Once they hit .08, it's a DUI like anything else....Expect the upgrade to felony DUI at some point along with the all the other charges.

I don't care if she left it running all day, it still doesn't give ANYONE the right to take what doesn't belong to them. Ever forget to close your garage door? Too bad she didn't leave a claymore mine behind the gas pedal.

Yes the owner was stupid for leaving the car running, but I'm sure we have all done it at some point. (warming it up in the winter, starting the car then run in the house quickly after you have forgotten something etc.). Lets keep blame where this death belongs-on the shitbag who was a high, drunk, criminal thief, who led the police on a chase that ended in this woman's death. You almost sound like the media and the liberals passing blame on everyone except the CRIMINAL.

Hopefully some good can be salvaged out of this tragedy. Unfortunately as a minor he won't serve any time. Maybe they will require mandatory community service where he has to go around to high schools (until the age of 25 or something) telling others (high school students)of his mistakes and pain he caused others and what not to do. Sounds a little Disney but maybe something positive can be generated from this horrible tragedy.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of the deceased.

The information on what he did in school isn't appropriate. School is out. Why do they always build up the bad guy as he's not a bad guy. How wbout just reporting on what he did. This kid could have killed many more. He put every officer and citizen he passed in danger. He stole a car. He uses drugs. He drives drunk. He is a criminal. No one is safe with anyone having behavior like this. Now this criminal should pay for his actions. And who cares what he did or didn't do at school, home, neighborhood, church, and sports. The media needs to focus on why he made the news. He was out of control and killed a working person, how about the fact that he killed a person trying to make the world a better place by doing the right thing, living a clean life and making the world a better place by going to work every day.

Who cares what grades this guy got. He failed in the real world.

You have got to be kidding! How can you blame the owner of the range rover? The honor student was high on two drugs and alcohol. WTF! He would have continued looking for victims? Maybe if the police did not make a traffic stop the death would be prevented. Maybe, what if! This "honor student" was out of control and nothing to stop him.

Honors students are different from honor students. If you take "honors classes" then you're an honors student. Generally that means your classes are more demanding and you may get more grade points toward your gpa. Nobody said anything about him passing those classes.
