Now sit in the chair as if I asked you" Like the boy's arms were handcuffed, manacled hands in which would be 15 minutes of moderation, he shouted: 'My arm Oh God Oh, it hurts. " As this incident and another incident involving a nine years in the same school district, is the subject of a federal lawsuit released Monday by the American Civil Liberties Union and Children Law Center.
