A Bermudian couple living in Ohio has started a Facebook campaign to help draw attention, and seek justice, for their autistic son, whom they say was abused by a teacher.
The couple say their four year old son suffered abuse including being held upside down by his feet, and having the teacher force
his jaw open while forcing him to the ground, and is now suffering
from the emotional effects of the alleged abuse.
His mother, Ashlie O’Connor, asked for people to “Please show your support, show Adam your support, please comment on Justice for Adam’s wall.” The page has attracted over 1,100 fans as of this writing, and you can join it here.
The Facebook page tells the full story, which is reprinted below:
Hello and thank you for taking the time to read our story, Adam’s story. As many of you were asking us what has happened to Adam, I decided to start this facebook page as a way to inform you and others of the serious wrong my son endured while attending pre-school. I am trying to achieve justice for Adam, but no matter where I turn no-one seems to be listening, no-one wants to hear me or Adam.
To help other’s understand I have decided to write his story, for him and us.
