Teen's Leg Amputated After Behavioral Specialist Allegedly Body-Slams Him

1 Share


A 13-year-old boy in Columbus, Georgia, had his right leg amputated on Tuesday, five weeks after he said he was body-slammed numerous times by a behavioral specialist working at his junior high school.

The student suffered permanent nerve damage in the leg as a result, leading doctors at the Egleston Children’s Hospital in Atlanta to remove part of his limb.

The teen and his family were informed about the need for surgery this past weekend, attorney Renee Tucker told the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer.

“As anyone can anticipate there was certainly an emotional response,” Tucker told the paper, adding the child will probably need counseling as well as physical therapy. “I mean, the fact that now it’s led to an amputation just signifies the degree of force that was used with regard to our client, particularly [the teacher] body-slamming him three different times.”

The alleged incident happened Sept. 12 at Edgewood Student Services Center, where the teen was enrolled in an alternative school program for students who’ve been temporarily removed from their assigned school because they violated behavior rules.

Tucker told the Ledger-Enquirer the boy was body-slammed in the classroom while trying to go to the main office so he could call his mother to pick him up.

At that point, he was stopped for unknown reasons by behavioral specialist Bryant Mosley, who slammed him to the floor to prevent him from leaving, Tucker said.

The student said he continued to attempt to leave and was thrown to the floor again. 

Tucker said the school’s assistant principal reportedly saw part of the incident and another employee saw the boy limping, but didn’t assist or file a report.

Although school officials reportedly told the boy they would call an ambulance, they decided to have Mosley carry him to the school bus and send him home without mentioning it to the parents.

“They placed an injured student on the school bus,” Tucker told the paper. “We don’t know the extent that the injuries were worsened by the failure to render aid and certainly by picking him up and seating him on the school bus. Then they had him ride in that same school bus home without any support or stabilization of that leg.”

Tucker said the family plans to file a lawsuit, but haven’t set the amount they will be seeking.

“We initially set a figure of $5 million based on the issues we saw at the time, mainly a fractured tibia,” she told The Huffington Post. “Now that he’s been amputated below the knee, there will be a need for prosthetics so that number will certainly increase.”

Mosley, the man accused of damaging the boy’s leg, was never actually employed by the school or the Muscogee County School District.

At the time of the incident, he was employed by Mentoring and Behavioral Services, a company that “specializes in individualizing holistic behavior approaches to produce a healthy and productive environment that fosters positive growth,” according to the company’s website.

The district is no longer using Mosley’s services, according to the Ledger-Enquirer.

“We extend our thoughts and prayers to our student who is undergoing medical treatment and to his family,” Valerie Fuller, the district’s communications director, said in a statement. “We are committed to conducting a thorough review of the alleged incident at the AIM/Edgewood Student Services Center to determine all of the facts.”

HuffPost reached out to MBS to see if Mosley is still employed there, but have not heard back.

The Columbus Police Department said they are looking into possible criminal charges, but can’t comment as the investigation is ongoing.

Clinton swats away Trump

1 Share
Hillary Clinton took control of the Las Vegas debate stage on Wednesday night, springing traps for Donald Trump on immigration and Vladimir Putin as she deftly sidestepped revelations from the WikiLeaks trove of her aides’ emails.
Clinton attacked Trump’s signature policy proposals—a border wall and mass deportations of undocumented immigrants—as ideas that are “not in keeping with who we are as a nation” and one, she said, that “would rip our country apart.”
And then, seeking to provoke a more animated response from the fiery GOP nominee, she pointed to Trump’s failure to discuss his wall and his promise that Mexico would pay for it when he met two months ago with the country’s president.
“He didn’t even raise it,” Clinton said. “He choked. And then he got into a Twitter war.”
Trump responded calmly, stating that his meeting with the Mexican president was “very nice” and pivoted deftly to trade, blasting Clinton for her husband’s signing of NAFTA with the United States’ continental neighbors. He even asserted that Clinton, by supporting comprehensive immigration reform plans that included stronger border security measures, actually “fought for the wall in 2006 or thereabouts,” Trump said. “Now, she never gets anything done, so naturally the wall wasn't built. But Hillary Clinton wanted the wall.”
But as Clinton chipped away, accusing Trump of using “undocumented immigrants to build Trump Tower,” her opponent’s calm demeanor gave way to the characteristic bombast and outburst that have characterized Trump’s first two debate performances and his entire campaign.
After moderator Chris Wallace asked Clinton about “open border” comments she made in a private speech revealed by WikiLeaks this month, she blasted Russia for attempting to influence the election and asked Trump to “admit and condemn the Russians are doing this.”
Trump labeled Clinton’s answer “a pivot” and asserted that Putin would respect him more than he currently does President Obama or a possible President Clinton.
“That’s because he’d rather have a puppet as president,” Clinton answered.
“You’re the puppet,” Trump shot back. “You’re the puppet.”
Trump limped into the third and final presidential debate battered, bruised and enduring a public shellacking like nothing he’s experienced before.
It would have taken an almost unfathomable hot streak on the debate stage—or a major meltdown by Clinton, a notoriously over-prepared, risk-averse politician—for Trump to reverse the odds of him winning the White House given how sharply the race has swung toward the Democratic nominee over the last three weeks.
Clinton now has a 90 percent chance of winning the Nov. 8 election and becoming the country’s first woman president, according to political odds-makers.
Polls continue to show Trump now losing nearly every demographic group save for white men and the electoral map tipping toward a Clinton landslide, with new surveys showing that even reliably red states like Georgia and Arizona may be about to turn blue. Even a much improved performance in the second debate, when Trump put Clinton on the defensive, did little to slow Trump’s free-fall.

There was no indication ahead of the debate that Trump had recommitted himself to preparing for this showdown more diligently than he has the first two matchups, which he treated more like live reality TV episodes without commercials.
As his own efforts to psyche out his opponents have fallen flat, Trump himself has shown that he can be easily baited. On Tuesday, President Obama twice told reporters that Trump should “stop whining” about his unfounded claims of a rigged election, a comment that seemed intent on provoking a reaction from the thin-skinned candidate whose first real foray into politics was to question Obama’s U.S. citizenship.
After defying expectations and political gravity for 15 months, Trump’s collapse has happened fast—and it has been both shocking and predictable. Heading into the first debate last month, the race for the White House looked to be close to a toss-up. But Trump delivered an unfocused and at times incoherent performance, exacerbated in the days that followed as he walked into Clinton's trap and continued to fat-shame a Latina former Miss Universe for gaining weight during her reign.
Things got worse heading into the second debate 10 days ago after a video emerged revealing Trump boasting about how his celebrity allowed him to get away with sexual assault on beautiful women—and his on-stage denial of such behavior during the last debate brought forth a steady stream of women with striking similar allegations that he in fact had groped them.
Trump has only been able to drag attention away from the scandal by relentlessly pursuing another narrative – that the election is rigged against him.

Clinton: Putin wants Trump as 'puppet'

1 Share
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump turned into Punch and Judy as they debated which one of them is the puppet.
Clinton pressed Trump on whether he would “admit and condemn that the Russians” are trying to influence U.S. elections by hacking “and make it clear that he will not have the help of Putin in this election.”
“I don't know Putin,” Trump said. “He said nice things about me. If we got along well, that would be good. If Russia and the United States got along well and went after ISIS, that would be good. He has no respect for her. He has no respect for our president.”
“Well, that's because he'd rather have a puppet as president,” Clinton cut in.
“You’re the puppet,” Trump retorted.
As Clinton proceeded to cite the 17 U.S. intelligence agencies that have pointed the finger at Russia for trying to influence the American election through hacks, Trump responded, “She has no idea whether it's Russia, China or anybody else.”
“I am not quoting myself,” she said, as Trump continued to insist she has “No idea.”

Clinton said, “He'd rather believe Vladimir Putin than the military and civilian intelligence professionals who are sworn to protect us.”
Finally, Wallace cut in, pressing Trump on whether he condemns interference in American elections, even if he’s not sure it’s by the Russians.
“Of course I condemn. Of course,” Trump conceded. “I don't know Putin. This is not my best friend."

Trump: Mosul campaign designed to help Clinton

1 Share
Donald Trump on Wednesday suggested that efforts to take back the city of Mosul, Iraq, from the Islamic State were driven by a desire to support Hillary Clinton's presidential bid.
"The only reason they did it is because she's running for office of president and they want to look tough," Trump said at the third presidential debate, appearing to refer to the Obama administration, which is supporting Iraqi efforts to capture the city. "They want to look good. He violated the red line in the sand, and he made so many mistakes. He made all mistakes. That's why we have the great migration, but she wanted to look good for the election."
The remarks came as an aside, as Trump argued more broadly that U.S. and allied efforts in Iraq were only benefiting Iran, a swipe meant for Obama and for Clinton, his former secretary of state.
"I'm just amazed that he seems to think the Iraqi government and our allies and everybody else launched the attack on Mosul" for the election, Clinton said.
