Lawyer Jeffrey Breit filed a $40 million negligence lawsuit Monday on behalf of Abigail Zwerner, a Virginia instructor who was shot by her 6-year-old pupil in January, alleging that college directors had been warned in regards to the youngster’s violent historical past and failed to guard her Erik Ortiz reports for NBC Information. The Newport Information Faculty Board, former Superintendent George Parker III and Richneck Elementary Principal Briana Foster Newton are additionally named as defendants within the criticism. Regardless of being significantly injured in her left hand and chest, Zwerner was in a position to lead her class of roughly 20 college students to security. Breit acknowledged that the incident is an “exception” since “no 6-year-old pupil goes to be a danger of capturing their instructor. It’s not a part of their job. It’s not an evening 7-Eleven employee.”
