When Dickson police arrived, they discovered there was more there than just a potential shoplifting.

Jenkins is still at work at Oakmont Elementary, despite what her arrest revealed: The schoolteacher is also Nashville resident Tina Tope and has at least three DUI convictions. She was also convicted of stealing steaks from the east Nashville Kroger this summer.

"You just wonder what kind of screening there is, background checks, and how does one get to be a teacher and not have a driver's license and have another alias name? It just is a concern, really makes you wonder who's teaching kids," said Dickson parent Karen Ragland.

"Why did no one know about that until know? How did she get here to start with?" said Sheena Chambers, another Dickson parent.

Director of Schools Johnny Chandler did not return Channel 4's calls.

In February, when Channel 4 asked Chandler about hiring people with criminal records, he said the severity of the individual's issues is examined.
