A group of female school bullies brutally attacked a girl in the common room while a male staff member walked by and did nothing.
The victim, who only goes by LS in a $1 million lawsuit filed by her mom, was charging an electronic device in the common room of Grant High School in Portland when a red-headed girl in a white hoodie came over to her and started talking to her.
The two reportedly had a heated conversation for several moments before the assaulter jumped on LS and began to repeatedly hit her, the Oregonian reported.
During the January 4 fight, a male staff member, who was sitting at the far end of the common room, can be seen walking hurriedly along the wall, not once looking at the altercation.
Portland Public Schools stopped employing officers in schools in June 2020 after the death of George Floyd because some activists were concerned the officers were targeting students of color.
Grant High School, where the incident took place, does employ security personnel. But Portland Public Schools axed school cops - also known as school resource officers - in the wake of George Floyd's murder at the hands of Minneapolis cop Derek Chauvin in May 2020.
