Teacher Sent Home, Told Never to Return After Hearing Voices Outside Classroom

The state of Florida is just ripe for crazy. It just is. After 51-year-old Robin Forde, a second-grade substitute teacher at an elementary school in Deltona, Florida, claimed she heard voices outside her classroom, the principal kindly removed her from the school and told her to not come back.

A deputy made contact with Forde in the principal's office after 9 a.m. Friday. Forde said she called the Volusia County Sheriff's Office because she could hear people screaming and cursing outside her classroom. Forde said she could not see anyone, just hear them, the investigating deputy said. On further questioning, Forde said in the past she has called the CIA, FBI and the President in reference to drug dealers following her around and cursing at her. On Friday, Forde saw no one but she said she heard the voices, the deputy reported. The principal spoke with the students but none of them said they heard an altercation and no one heard anything in the second-grade classroom, the deputy said. Forde denied having a mental issue and said this type of incident has happened in the past and that she has called the Sheriff's Office to report the incident. The deputy checked Forde's history with the Sheriff's Office but found no record of her, the report shows. Forde insisted she heard the voices in her head and claimed after some time these subjects were also trying to steal her identity but she does not know when, how or why. Forde got very upset several times with the deputies on scene and kept saying she was going to call the President of the United States about this incident again as she claims to have spoken with him before about this, the report states. Forde claimed the drug-dealing, identity-stealing suspects followed her from Georgia. The security officer for the school began to speak with Forde and the substitute teacher accused her of using her walkie-talkie to make the voices in her classroom. It was determined that Forde was no danger to herself and the school. A taxi was called for her, the deputy wrote in his report.
