Autism is not criminal

Sep 26, 2007 | Autism

I am happy to report that the charges against the six year old autistic boy have been dropped.

Charges Dropped

The school is, of course, refusing to comment in order to “protect the child’s privacy”. A bit too little.

The parents are thinking of civil action, and in this case I think I agree with them. As the public defender, Amanda Mullins said, “It’s not an issue of assault. It’s an issue of a school being unprepared to deal adequately with a child like that.”

Ain’t that the truth.
