Phoebe’s school settles case with parents

OFFICIALS at the school attended by Phoebe Prince have settled a previously undisclosed discrimination case taken by the young Irish girl’s parents.

Anne O’Brien and Jeremy Prince filed a complaint against the local school board, the superintendent, the principal and vice principal, accusing them of discrimination for allegedly failing to deal with the sexual harassment of their child.

Six now former students of South Hadley High School in Massachusetts face criminal charges linked to the alleged physical and verbal abuse of Phoebe in the weeks and days leading up to her suicide in January this year.
