Family Sues School Board After Student's Suicide Following Attack

The family of 14-year-old Adriana Kuch, who died by suicide days after being attacked at Central Regional High School in New Jersey, is suing the school board, former superintendent, and others for negligence, defamation, and infliction of emotional distress. The lawsuit alleges that the school failed to protect Adriana from bullying and cyberbullying, and that the superintendent invaded the family's privacy. Another lawsuit involving a separate assault at the same school has also been filed. The family's attorney is seeking compensatory and punitive damages, while the civil case is currently in the discovery phase.
