California: Pico Rivera Councilman facing recall effort

Councilman Gregory Salcido, a high school teacher who swore at a student wearing a Marine Corps sweatshirt, is facing a recall effort. A fellow teacher is leading the effort, noting that Salcido was put on leave after being accused of hitting a student and telling a student to shut up before he kills him.

Petitioners need 6386 signatures to get on the ballot. All four of Salcido's fellow council members support the recall.
