13. you seem to have decided that my comments

preclude any measure of sympathy or concern for the victim in this case. That wasn't ever the intent, and I'm sorry you came away with that impression.

I will allow that I have rarely encountered an educator (of any stripe) that wouldn't be absolutely heart-stricken should anything even remotely like this take place on their watch. And so - stand by that part of my previous posts. In my experience, beating up on the schools (or the teachers) is generally neither very productive - nor, in most cases, really even effectively targeting the true problems.
(and I suspect - while admittedly not having a great deal of detail to work with - that this might also be such a case)
