Two mothers chaperoning a high school prom in Manitou Springs, Colo., allegedly sprayed Lysol on students for dancing dirty, calling the teen girls “sluts” and “whores.”
About eight students were hit with the disinfectant spray, Manitou Springs police told the Daily News. The spray got in some students’ eyes and mouths, and they had to leave the prom, said police.
A female teen that was at the April 21 dance is pressing charges against the chaperones.
Jennifer Farmer and Hannah Rockey, both 42, were cited for harassment and obscene language, police said.
The women complained to a security guard that the students were dancing “like they are having sex with their clothes on” and appeared as if “they were advertising...sex,” according to police.
The Manitou Springs school district issued a statement Thursday saying it did not condone the parents’ action and would take steps to instruct future chaperones on proper protocol, reported the Denver Channel.
The women have denied the accusations. They could face fines up to $750 and six months in jail if charged and convicted, ABC News reported.
