"Chilling Ghostly Encounters Caught on Camera at Haunted High School"

A janitor at King's High School in Tampa, Florida, captured eerie footage of a red balloon seemingly following him around a classroom and an empty hallway. The janitor also claimed that the school was built on top of a cemetery and previous janitors had reported strange occurrences. In the video, a shadowy figure is seen sprinting across the room, further adding to the creepy atmosphere. The school was found to have approximately 145 coffins buried underneath it, believed to be from a historic African-American cemetery dating back to the 1940s or 1950s.

NJ School Janitor Accused of Contaminating Food with Bleach, Bodily Fluids

A 25-year-old elementary school janitor in New Jersey has been charged with child endangerment, aggravated assault, and tampering with food after allegedly contaminating food and utensils with bleach and bodily fluids, including saliva, urine, and feces. The janitor, Giovanni Impellizzeri, is accused of spraying bleach into a container of cucumbers and touching his private areas before spitting on bread that was then served to students. Parents are concerned about potential health risks and are demanding answers from the school district, which is working with the Department of Health to sanitize the affected areas and discard the contaminated food. The investigation is ongoing, and samples are being collected from Impellizzeri to determine if any diseases were transmitted.

Janitor's mistake costs university $1 million in research

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is suing Daigle Cleaning Systems for more than $1 million in damages and legal fees after a janitor shut off a lab freezer containing cell cultures and samples, which are sensitive to small temperature fluctuations, causing "catastrophic damage" and effectively demolishing more than 20 years of research. The college claims that the janitor caused the damage due to a lack of proper training and supervision by Daigle Cleaning Systems. The freezer had been set off by "annoying alarms" and was under repair, but the janitor turned off the circuit breakers that provide electricity to the freezer in an apparent attempt to help.

Janitor's mistake costs university $1 million in research

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is suing Daigle Cleaning Systems for negligence and breach of contract after a janitor allegedly cut power to a super-cold freezer, destroying decades' worth of research materials valued at nearly $1 million. The university is seeking at least $1 million, which they estimate is the cost of reproducing the research on photosynthesis that had "the potential to be groundbreaking" for solar technology. The janitor allegedly misread the panel and did the opposite of what he intended, causing the freezer to rise to minus-25.6 degrees, far above the limit necessary to preserve the specimens.

Janitor's Action Destroys Decades of Scientific Work in Freezer Shutdown.

A janitor at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute lab in Troy, New York, shut off a super-cold freezer containing decades of scientific research, causing over $1 million in damages, because he was "annoyed" by a beeping sound. The freezer held cell structures, samples, and other elements stored at minus 112 degrees Fahrenheit, but the temperature rose to minus 25.6 degrees when the freezer was shut off, damaging the material. The university is now seeking $1 million in damages in a lawsuit against the third-party cleaning service charges.

Janitor's Attempt to Silence Beeping Noise Results in Destruction of Decades of Scientific Research

A janitor turned off the breaker to a freezer containing valuable cell cultures and research samples, causing $1 million in damages and destroying 25 years of research at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. The beeping noise was caused by the freezer being slightly above the temperatures it should have been set to, and a technician was unable to come to repair it due to COVID-19 restrictions. The janitor thought he had turned the breaker on instead of off and had no ill intent. A lawsuit has been filed against the janitor's employer for negligence.
