I just can't phathom doing this to another human being and it would scare me if I could understand it. Money alone doesn't bring justice Capt Dwayne Conyers

Thank you for sharing this story sir, those that did this to her are pathetic sleaze bags.

Good...I am glad to see she got something...should have been more and the leadership of that school that didn't stop the bullying should have been fired...PERIOD. My daughter exeprienced bullying for about 6 months andwhen it came to ahead, she was slammed up against a wall withthe girls hands around her throat. Now, my daughter could have easily put her on the ground and in a brazilian choke hold until soemone pulled her off but she did the right thing and stood there without fear in her eyes. Went to theoffice and reported it. The principal did nothing...I mean nothing until I showed up at the school and demanded a meeting with him and the two teachers that witnessed it. After several weekes of me showing up at the door he finally got the message and suspended the student and put the teachers on notice. He wasn't invited back the next year with contract. Never had another problem with bullying though once word got ut that my daughter was trained to handle it and I told her thenext time just handle it and I would deal with any blowback.
