A judge in Virginia has ruled that a teacher who was shot by her 6-year-old student in class can press forward with a $40 million lawsuit.

    They did commit criminal acts. Criminal negligence and child endangerment. Multiple people reported the existence of a gun on the premises and a person stating intent to use it. Doesnt matter if that person was a child. The administrators knew a gun was in the posession of a child and failed to call the police or secure the weapon.

    I’d throw a charge of child endangerment on those administrators for each child in the school.

    if a gun is reported and you fail to act, you deserve prison.

      Do you have any examples of this? I can’t think of any cases where somebody was found guilty in a criminal court for failing to act on a report of a firearm being present.
