The lawsuit mentions new details about the boy, who is identified as John Doe, and an alleged pattern of troubling behavior.
Almost three months after Virginia teacher Abigail Zwerner was shot by a 6-year-old student, the injured educator filed a $40 million lawsuit Monday alleging school administrators shrugged off multiple warnings from staff and students who believed the boy had a gun and posed an imminent threat on the day of the shooting, and did so knowing the child “had a history of random violence.”
The Jan. 6 shooting of Zwerner at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News stunned the country as police announced the child’s actions were intentional. The student shot Zwerner with a 9mm handgun while she sat at a reading table in their first-grade classroom, according to officials.
Good for her
You can bet that crazy stuff goes on in that kid’s house and in his head.
