Houston School Officials Call Police After Student Tries Buying Lunch With $2 Bill

HOUSTON, TX -- There are some people who've never seen a $2 bill, including, it would seem police, school officials and cafeteria workers in Houston who were convinced an eighth-grader was using counterfeit money to buy chicken nuggets during lunch.

But the $2 bill is a real thing -- a legal denomination of U.S. currency first issued in the early part of the 20th century, produced until 1966 and then reissued ten years later. It's got a picture of Thomas Jefferson on the front and a reproduction of The Declaration of Independence by John Trumbull on the reverse side.

Some of us remember as kids occasionally coming across such bills, which are now seldom seen in circulation. They weren't too much in demand among merchants, prompting the U.S. Treasury to pull back on their production.

But they're out there, and they're perfectly legal to use.

Yet when student Danesiah Neal tried to pay for her chicken nuggets with such a bill, the purchase was flagged. Police were called.

According to media reports, the scene of the "crime" was Fort Bend Independent School District's Christa McAuliffe Middle School, just outside Houston proper.

“I went to the lunch line, and they said my $2 bill was fake,” the eighth-grader told KTRK-TV. “They gave it to the police. Then they sent me to the police office. A police officer said I could be in big trouble.”

School officials then called the student's grandmother, who had given her the bill: " 'Did you give Danesiah a $2 bill for lunch?' " the grandmother, Sharon Kay Joseph, recalled being asked. "He told me it was fake."

Doggedly on the case, police then located the convenience store where the student claimed she had been given the bill as part of her change after a purchase. Then, a crack team of Houston detectives took the circa-1953 bill to a nearby bank, where it was scrutinized and examined before being deemed legitimate legal tender.

“He brought me my $2 bill back,” Joseph told KTRK of being visited by a school official after the misunderstanding. "He didn’t apologize. He should have, and the school should have because they pulled Danesiah out of lunch, and she didn’t eat lunch that day because they took her money.”

Charges were not filed. But the grandmother is still upset over the entire episode.

“It was very outrageous for them to do it,” Joseph said. “There was no need for police involvement. They’re charging kids like they’re adults now.”

:snoop:
What a bunch of dumb muthafukkin adults:stopitslime:...going back to the convenience store, never hearing of a 2 dollar bill, the kid missing lunch....no apology....if these were white people, which I assume they were(if not please correct me)....WHY IS THE WHITE EGO SO INFLATED...I mean to the point were fallibility can't even be considered....that Texas bullshyt bruh:mjlol:

The United States two-dollar bill ($2) is a current denomination of U.S. currency. The third U.S. President (1801–09), Thomas Jefferson, is featured on the obverse of the note. The reverse features a reproduction of the painting The Declaration of Independence by John Trumbull. Throughout the $2 bill's pre-1929 life as a large-sized note, it was issued as a United States Note, National Bank Note, silver certificate, and Treasury or "Coin" Note. When U.S. currency was changed to its current size, the $2 bill was issued only as a United States Note. Production went on until 1966, when the series was discontinued. Ten years went by before the $2 bill was reissued as aFederal Reserve Note with a new reverse design. $2 bills are seldom seen in circulation as a result of banking policies with businesses which has resulted in low production numbers due to lack of demand. This comparative scarcity in circulation, coupled with a lack of public awareness that the bill is still in circulation, has also inspired urban legends and occasionally has created problems for people trying to use the bill to make purchases.

:stopitslime::stopitslime::stopitslime: Like I said.... The bills still exist but they havent been in CIRCULATION, meaning new prints like i said before...


You dumb motherfukker the bottom of your posted blurb says "coupled with a lack of public awareness that the bill is still in circulation".

Go down to the thrid paragraph in that wiki link and you can find this little nugget.

"Today, there is a common misconception by the public that the $2 bill is no longer in circulation. According to the Treasury, it "receives many letters asking why the $2 bill is no longer in circulation".[10] In response, the Treasury stated: "The $2 bill remains one of our circulating currency denominations... As of April 30, 2007 there were $1,549,052,714 worth of $2 bills in circulation worldwide."


After this exchange i think i need to cut those teachers a break because apparently people can find the wiki page for 2 dollar bills, read some excerpts and still not be able to comprehend that the bill is still in circulation even when the relevant portion is in the paragraph they are reading.

I'm out of line because I'm revealing the truth? :what:

My grandmother left Florida because of shyt like this. Why can't yall just realize you fighting a losing battle. You think someone in Jackson, MI or Tx give a fukk about BLM?

We as a people staying in these dumb fukk places (look at breh map below clearly shows it) and then wonder why we getting shot up, discriminated against and fukked in the ass.

The problem with your theory is you assume White people ever give a damn about us to begin with - The fact remains is unless you are in a state where quakers historically reside you're assed motha fockin OUT - SOL!

White supremacy is dwindling but like a Tiger backed into a corner it will get more fierce once you give it no option to flee. These country CACs are gonna fight until the last breath especially in the Lone Star State.

Stay your Black ass in the city or expect to get shot and killed driving down the wrong road. What fantasy land are nikkas living in? They stopped my Pops car driving through Georgia well outside of ATL. Drive down the wrong street off the highway and Officer Bob will make sure you know to keep it moving and get on out of here. This was in 1998 two kids including myself in the back of the car sleeping. If my pops was alone and didn't speak the King's English he probably would have whooped his ass and stole whatever he had and possibly murked him just for the fun of it.

How young are you nikkas and do you not realize that 2016 or 2020 it don't matter these Whites aren't going out quietly. We got to stick to major cities. Don't go camping and shyt into these woods where these poor CACs hiding out. NYC, ATL, Newark, DMV, Minneapolis maybe. There's only a couple of cities you can go now that have a sizable educated middle-class Black community that can fend off both the low tron nikkas and the racist whites. This is our reality in America today. WAKE UP.



How is Boston, MA #1 I met some kids from up there they ain't smarter than us NYers, especially at a young age :francis:
its the private/boarding schools that make it appear that way. CT and Mass have like the best in the country (according to studies of course)

I'm more befuddled over the school administrators feeling the need to get the police involved. Even if you're unsure, you mean to tell me nobody has internet access at the school? To be fair, I'm questioning myself right now over what I might have done as its not every day you come across a two dollar bill. Thats where the internet comes in handy. In 2016, not one fukkin educated dweeb on that school faculty considered going to Google? The boys in blue as well? Bonafide backwards Bubbas in 2016 still dont consult the internet for the mundane? They really needed to go to the bank for not only authentication of the bill but also a lesson in history? Pathetic.

Now if you're the cop, part of the school faculty, nobody had enough respect for the kid, the kid's family, not to mention self respect, to apologize to the kid and their family? Now this is the interesting part pertaining to whites with their head in the sand. They cant understand how a situation like this will leave an indelible mark etched in that kid's brain. As well as the brains of the kid's family and peers. "Cant understand why they hate the police. They're to serve and protect." That 8th grader if he/she hasnt already had one, had a beautiful learning experience when dealing with not only police, but also school faculty. Catching thunder and lightening from both sides.
and they couldn't even give the little girl lunch while they "investigate"? Mind bogglingly stupid plus how much money was wasted on this BS "investigation"? Surprised they didn't involve the Secret Service smh

I seriously doubt they really didn't know past the lunch lady. The school and cops just wanted to traumatize a black child.


That is the premise upon which they should be sued, as well as false and unlawful profiling, detainment, and harassment.
