A parent dressed in an Easter bunny costume caused “chaos” after handing out eggs filled with candy — and some wrapped with unopened condoms — at an Austin, Texas elementary school.
“I’m not sure if this is the Austin weird I signed up for‘ said parent Nathan Jensen in an April 14 social media post.
The candy and condom giving away occurred during the pick-up time, Jensen said.
Gullett Elementary School officials sent a letter to the parents explaining what had happened and saying the visit had not been planned or approved by the staff, KXAN reported.
“We are working to review our security protocols to ensure this does not happen again,” a district spokesperson told the outlet. “It was an incredibly careless and inappropriate action by a parent.”
Officials spoke to the parent in the costume, and the Austin ISD Police Department is investigating whether charges should be filed, KEYE reported.
But it’s all allowed been an accidentJensen wrote in a tweet.
The parent is a pharmacist who attended a safe sex clinic while wearing the bunny suit, Jensen said in a tweet. Then they went to pick up their second grade student from school and decided to hand out candy, in costume.
The parent “was harassed by children” and called her husband to bring more candy-filled eggs, the tweet said. “Her husband brought the wrong eggs,” and “there was chaos.”
