The wife of a high school teacher killed in a horrifying prank gone wrong is now begging for all of her charges to be dropped against the students who were involved.
She says that her husband loved them and was so excited to join them in this prank. Five teens were arrested after teacher Jason Hughes was run over when he slipped and fell outside his residence in Gainesville, Georgia. The teacher was said to be chasing them for covering his front yard in toilet paper as part of a prank war that had been a school tradition for so many years.
