A Pennsylvania father is demanding answers after his 5-year-old son, Grayson, was allegedly assaulted by a fourth-grade special needs student at Keystone Elementary School, resulting in facial injuries and missing teeth. The family, represented by attorney David Langsam, criticizes the school's handling of the incident and has not been allowed to view surveillance footage. The Bristol Township School District and Bucks County Intermediate Unit are investigating, while the father has expressed his son's fear of returning to school and is not pursuing legal action against the special needs child or their parents.
Dagny Benedict, a 16-year-old non-binary student, died after being severely beaten in a school bathroom fight at Owasso High School in Oklahoma. The assault, reportedly by three older female students, resulted in severe head trauma. The school district declined to comment, and police are still investigating the cause of death. Benedict's family claims the school failed to call for medical help, and a GoFundMe has been set up to support the family.
The family of 14-year-old Adriana Kuch, who died by suicide after being assaulted at her New Jersey high school and having the attack recorded and posted online, is suing officials with the school district, alleging a failure to address a "culture of violence" and protect her from bullying. The lawsuit claims that school officials did not adequately respond to the assault and subsequent online humiliation, leading to Adriana's suicide. The family is seeking punitive damages and asserts that the school has a serious bullying problem that administrators have failed to acknowledge or address.
