State finds negligence in death of teen at Diamond Ranch Academy.

A Native American girl, Taylor Goodridge, died of peritonitis, an infection of the abdomen tissue, which led to sepsis, after collapsing at Diamond Ranch Academy, a Utah boarding school for troubled teens. The school failed to seek necessary medical care for her when she vomited on multiple days. The Utah Department of Health and Human Services placed Diamond Ranch Academy’s license on probation and suspended its ability to enroll children after Taylor’s death. The school is being sued by Taylor’s parents in federal court over her death.
