Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Journalist shared clearer picture of Olivia Grace Bennett, a 6th grade Social Studies teacher who called a black student, Kelaia Turner, a roach in bully attack.
Kelaia Turner was allegedly physically and verbally assaulted by peers who branded her ‘roach’ and ‘moustache face’ at the Dr. Phinnize J Fisher Middle School in Greenville County, her parents claim in a 24-page federal lawsuit against school district officials for ignorance.
Her mother, Ty Turner, has said she believes the bullying began when Kelaia started wearing her natural hair to school and escalated over the years.
She claimed that instead of providing support and helping reduce incidents, teachers joined in on the torture.
The bullying eventually became so bad that Kelaia was found hanging from a belt in her bedroom at home, and was dead for a complete eight minutes before paramedics could revive her. READ MORE HERE
She was in a coma for weeks, and wound up staying in the hospital for 101 days. It was during this period when the alleged bullies snuck in and took photos of her.
Kelaia then suffered severe brain damage, and has been left with no control over her body – instead relying on a tracheostomy tube to breathe and a feeding tube.
