The claims against three Smyrna Elementary School employees, documented by investigators in court documents, were said to be a "pattern of troubling behavior" against special needs students.

A Smyrna police investigation claimed the three employees threw objects at students, yelled at them and called them names.

Students were isolated in a dark bathroom, slapped in the face and sprayed with a water bottle, according to court documents.

Police also said a student, or students, with a known digestive disorder was fed hot Taki chips and hot sauce.
