Officials at the school attended by North Clare teenager Phoebe Prince have settled a previously undisclosed discrimination case taken by her parents
Newspaper reports today say Anne O’Brien and Jeremy Prince filed a complaint against the local school board, the superintendent, the principal and vice principal, accusing them of discrimination for allegedly failing to deal with the sexual harassment of their child.
6 former students of South Hadley High School in Massachusetts face criminal charges linked to the alleged physical and verbal abuse of the 15 year old from Fanore leading up to her suicide in January this year.
It has also emerged that federal prosecutors are investigating the events leading up to Phoebe’s death and what happened after, including allegations that handwritten notes detailing the harassment and bullying were destroyed.
