A white North Carolina woman has been caught on camera berating a black middle school student during a profanity-laden and racially-charged tirade.

Samantha Danielle Spoor, 35, had a meltdown that saw her placed into handcuffs following her outburst on Currituck County school bus.

Spoor, infamously known as ‘School Bus Karen,’ interrupted a Moyock Middle School bus ride on May 15, unleashing a furious tirade at a group of shocked middle school students. Her outburst was captured by one of the students on their cellphone.

The viral video clip, which has been partially edited to remove its most offensive and discriminatory language, shows Spoor hurling a barrage of insults and threats at the kids.

‘Sit the f*** down,’ Spoor barks at a busload of children, her hand raised as if to strike. ‘Ain’t none of you gonna do f***ing s***.’

In one of the video’s most appalling moments she singles out a student filming her. 

‘Record it for your motherf***ing mama, I live over here. Send her. F***ing n*****!’ she yells.

The racial slur, heard clearly in the unedited version, sparked fury and quickly saw her facing legal consequences.

Spoor was arrested the next day and charged with trespassing, disorderly conduct, communicating threats, and impeding a school bus. 

She has been released on a $2,000 bond pending trial.

Currituck County officials acted swiftly, with school management reviewing the bus’s surveillance footage alongside a school resource officer and promptly passing the case on to law enforcement.

‘This type of behavior is unacceptable and, furthermore, is prohibited by law,’ the school district said in a statement. 

‘We are fully cooperating with the investigation and reviewing our transportation procedures to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.’

The target of Spoor’s venom was 13-year-old Savannah Bailey, an eighth grader riding the bus home from Moyock Middle School that afternoon.

She had stood up, not to answer back, but simply to hear what was going on. That was all it took for Spoor to make her a target.

‘I was raised to not take disrespect,’ Savannah said in an interview with WAVY. ‘So even though I didn’t say anything, it was just shocking that she talked to me that way even though she doesn’t know me.’

Spoor stormed the bus after her son claimed to have been kicked by another student. 

But instead of reporting the alleged incident to the school or calmly confronting the administration, she recklessly took matters into her own hands.

According to Savannah, the woman never even asked her name and simply went into her wild rant. 

‘She didn’t know the full situation,’ Savannah said. ‘I just happened to be standing.’

Savannah’s parents, Christina and Anthony Bailey, say they’re deeply shaken both by the slur and the by the possibility of what could have happened had Spoor come aboard the bus armed or even more enraged.

‘To have a parent step on my child’s bus, these days and times, you don’t know what could have happened,’ said Christina Bailey. 

‘I send her on the bus to get a safe ride home,’ dad, Anthony, added. 

‘I’m not sure if I want her to ride that bus anymore. It’s being an adult and knowing how far to take it and not getting on a bus yelling and screaming at children.’

Equally alarming to many viewers is that no school staff member intervened. 

The bus driver who can be seen sitting in the front did not stop Spoor’s from getting aboard, nor did they speak up during the confrontation.

Currituck County Schools says it is now conducting a full review of bus security.

‘Only authorized personnel and students are permitted to board school buses,’ a spokesperson emphasized. ‘The safety and well-being of our students and staff remain our highest priority.’

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and other community organizations say they are also monitoring the situation and may intervene publicly if more decisive steps aren’t taken.
