A Texas mother who filmed herself posing as her 13-year-old daughter to sneak into her middle school and attend classes for a day, claims she was did the stunt to prove that security was poor.
Casey Garcia, 30, was arrested Friday for criminal trespassing, tampering with government records and an unrelated traffic violation, according to El Paso County Jail records, after a video of her sneaking into her daughter's middle school went viral.
In the video, Garcia can be seen walking into the building, which was later identified as the Garcia-Enriquez Middle School.
'We need better security at our schools, this is what I tried to prove, and I don't mean to be curt but I kind of feel like I proved it,' she said.
And after she was released from jail on a $7,808 bond, Garcia responded, telling the network, 'I spent the day in police custody, but my question still remains: Are our children safe in our schools, Jeannie Meza-Chavez?'
