Had a conversation about this yesterday with a friend of mine (whos wife is an attorney). I do not remember the exact words and Im on my phone so, cant look it up, but she had said any lawyer who tried to sue the family better be very careful. As they can lose their license for this type of thing (bringing up completely friviolous lawsuits without having the facts and whatnot is very frowned apon). As the kid cannot be liable for commiting an illegal act, its the same with proving that he was coerced by his family. There was a good bit more legaleese, but I had gotten the point. She did say the school would almost certainly lose if it was determined that it had affected the female child, since it had happened before and they were responsible to make sure it didnt happen again (if it was unwanted, which the article said wasnt the case) |
Yeah tha definately sounds about right, definately can't bring ludicrous accusations in court. But if a lawyer can somehow prove that the parents showing constant affection(sex/kissing/etc, not very likely) towards each other infront of little jimmy which led him to do this they Definitely would have a case. But as you stated that information would be very difficult to get a hold of and is most likely not even the case.
I'm just spouting out hypotheticals though I guess my first statement would be off then. I gotta admit I find Amercian law intriguing.
But, I swear something similar happened like this and a parent sued the school and a kids parents and won. Though I may be off a bit.
