What is the name of your state? Ohio
My 12 Year Old Daughter was getting harrassed (touched and pushed around)by a boy in gym class.
She went to Gym Teacher to get help. Gym teacher blew her off and said it was a flirty thing. She went back to class and the boy kept touching and pushing her and said "What can a little sissy girl do, go ahead hit me",She punched him and broke his jaw. 1 punch was thrown.
The school sent her home on bus with a 3 day suspension. Boy recieved no punishment from school.
I contacted school before they called me.
Boy's grandmother filed assult charges with police against my daughter.
The school did not interview any witnesses until the next day. The kids interviewed said they did not see the boy push her around and they where playing. She can produce a couple of kids that will verify her story. And the Teacher has a written statement to the fact that she did in fact come to him for assistance and he thought it to just be flirting so he did nothing. I think my daughter was being sexually harrassed and the teacher condoned it.
Is this a case of a victim being prosecuted. She has been
Am I liable for the boys medical, can I be sued? What should my next steps be to protect my daughter for defending herself?
Any comments would be helpful. I can't afford a lawyer and not sure what to do.
