Indiana Couple Suing District For Not Protecting Son From Bullying

The AP (11/16) reports that Osama and Hind Haddad of St. John, Indiana, are "suing their northwest Indiana school district, claiming school officials failed to protect their son from prolonged bullying over his Middle Eastern background that culminated in an attack this month that left him with a brain injury." The lawsuit argues that "officials at Lake Central High School in St. John, about 35 miles southeast of Chicago, failed to protect their son, David Osama Haddad, from at least seven bullies even after it was brought to their attention."
