Boy, 11, kills himself after months of bullying and 'embarrassment' from his own teacher who called him 'stupid': lawsuit
Briefly

The tragic case of 11-year-old Louis Johnson, who died by suicide after enduring severe bullying from his teacher, Donna White, has sparked a lawsuit against the Marion County School Board. The lawsuit alleges that White relentlessly belittled Johnson, calling him "stupid" and encouraging other students to join in the bullying. Despite his parents' complaints to school authorities about the bullying, no action was taken. Johnson's struggle with mental health ultimately led to his tragic decision on April 27, 2023, after which his parents have taken steps to raise awareness about bullying in schools.
Johnson's parents repeatedly reported White's actions to the school and the school board, but they did nothing, according to the lawsuit.
"I don't know why you're talking because you don't even know anything. You don't know nothing in this class. Isn't that right, kids?" White told Johnson, the lawsuit alleged.
