URGENT URGENT
11 yr old Zakh charged with a felony!! Crime: AUTISM
Zakh had a meltdown at school because his FBA and PBA were not done. The two things the district agreed to do at the IEP they didn't do. He had a meltdown and when they tried to restrain him, he kicked the principal (once) and pushed the teacher (and her words she says 'I fell into the bookcase'...not that he pushed her into it.
He destroyed the room as they escalated his meltdown by nothing following the IEP.
The principal claim injuries...but no one went to a doctor or missed a day of work.
This is the good ol boy network in play. They want to get him out of the schools so they don't have to pay for his services..and yet the judge refused to let me homeschool him.
It is much more complicated...but he has his felony hearing 12 Jan...but when the district and judge found out this is all over the internet and international, they cancled the hearing. They are furious with me and the public defender has said this won't be good for Zakh. They want him to do a competency test with Dr. Dahoe in Little Rock. Zakh knows right from wrong, but not in a meltdown! The goal is to put him in the state hospital for the rest of his life!
PLEASE HELP SAVE MY GRANDSON!
I'd send you a link but I doubt it will go through.
I have documented EVERYTHING, every law they have broken etc. The DRC is helping with his IEP meeting (11 Jan) but not legal case. The state is doing an investigation. These people would not be doing this if what I'm saying wasn't true as I sent them all the documents I have.
PLEASE HELP, I'M BEGGING YOU. The public defender screamed at me "I DON'T HAVE TO TALK TO YOU OR THE MOTHER...JUST ZAKH! I asked you mean an 11 yr old autistic boy with MR?
And she yelled YES!
If you can't help, do you know anyone not afraid of Ft. Smith Schools?
Thanks

PS: Google Zakh- autistic and you will see the info about him.

The mother of an 8 year old autistic boy who has severe peanut allergies has sued a special ed teacher who allegedly gave her son a peanut-filled candy bar in hopes of making him sick so that he wouldn't go on a field trip. The teacher allegedly told a classroom aide that the boy would likely misbehave on the trip and "maybe he could get sick enough not to attend and we won't have to deal with it." The mother said that her son, who is mostly non-verbal, gets hives and experiences swelling if he merely touches peanuts.

A classroom aide told school officials that the teacher treated the boy like a "caged animal" by keeping him for hours at a time in a cubicle that should have been used for short times alone. She was also accused of pinching the boy, standing on his foot so he could not move his leg, and grabbing him by the arm to drag him around the classroom. The school fied a report with Child Protective Services immediately upon hearing of the complaint and put the teacher on administrative leave.

Classroom aides also claimed the teacher hit a nine-year old girl with Down Syndrome on the lips in an attempt to make her pull her tongue back in. The teacher claimed it was a therapeutic technique.

In 2007, the same teacher was placed on administrative leave in another school district after a nurse told a child's mother that she saw the teacher force-feed her daughter, slap her and improperly restrain her. The teacher has denied all of the allegations.
