A middle school teacher in East Bank, West Virginia, has been temporarily removed from the class after a video was posted showing him verbally berating a student.
The reason for the outburst: The 13-year-old student claims he saw the teacher watching porn alone in the classroom.
However, no evidence of porn has been found on the teacher's computers, according to the school's principal.
Jeffrey Province said when he entered his 6th grade math class on Tuesday, he observed teacher Thomas Yohn staring at his computer screen, WOWK-TV reports.
Province's mother, Carmelene Short, decided to go public with this incident and joined her son in a televised segment.
"I saw something no 13-year-old should ever see in a school," Province told the station.
Province reported Yohn to the principal, who apparently discussed the accusation with the teacher.
A short time later, Yohn burst into Province's English class, and confronted him in front of other students.
One of them secretly filmed the encounter and posted it online.
In the video, Yohn can be heard saying the following:
“Next time you open your big, stinking mouth, pal, I will write you up and send you to the office for coming into my room without permission. Is that clear?
“What I watch as an adult is my choice. You as a child wait in the hall until you’re invited into my room -- is that clear?”
Yohn also accused Province of threatening him.
"He tried to blackmail me," Yohn said in the video. "[Province] said, 'Oh, Mr. Yohn,' he said, 'I'm going to get an A this quarter or I'm going to tell that you're watching inappropriate things on TV and I saw it.'"
School principal Mike Wilkinson told The Huffington Post that Yohn's behavior on the video is "unacceptable," but wouldn't say if the teacher had been suspended.
"I can tell you he is not in the building," he said.
The porn accusation is being investigated, but so far, there's no proof it happened, Wilkinson said.
"Yohn's computers were seized and no porn was found on any of them," Wilkinson said.
