The parent's job is to be quiet and not speak to anyone without their lawyer's permission.  Instead, they are acting like public relations is their job and making their lawyer want to shoot himself.
Wait a tick. According to the article, administrators at the school heard he may have had a weapon prior to the shooting and couldn’t find it after searching his bag? So this 6yr old, with an “acute disability”, was able to procure the gun from a “safe” spot, take it to school, HIDE IT FROM ADULTS, and shoot his teacher? What…the…fuck… >

Schools who want to skirt their responsibilities under the ADA to provide the kid an IEP might just pull some nonsense like this. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess it's a poor school district. >

Teacher here. At one school I taught at, a drug dealer had three of his friends help him sell and distribute drugs. When caught, the three friends were expelled. The drug dealer stuck around to commit more offensives because the school couldn’t legally prove that his drug selling behavior wasn’t part of his behavior disorder that was covered by his IEP. 🤡 >

it's suddenly making a lot more sense why in high school my special ed class was 90% filled with the kids who threw chairs at teachers >

I am sure that the kid does have a disability. The responsibility lies on the parents to lockup the firearm. In cases that are rare, and a 6 year old can break into a lock. It is on the parents to still secure the firearm. If a 6 year old got it, than it was not secure. >

That’s the crazy part is all the updates I’m seeing is the parents are maintaining it was secure?? >

You mean the parents are lying to protect their own asses? >

No, that’s the lawyer’s job!
