A little stomping and kicking going on
This woman took a job as a paraprofessional. That means she agreed to work with the special ed students who have intellectual disabilities (we used to use the word “retarded”).
Sometimes these “retarded” students hurt the paraprofessionals.
Other intellectually disabled students in this same school system have hurt paraprofessionals, and they were not sentenced to prison.
Here’s an article about two of those students. Note that both students are white:

One got 18 months on probation. The other was released.
But, Depa is facing 30 years. Because his attack was caught on a video that went viral.
I looked up the article written by Brendan Depa’s adoptive mother:

And now, I’m even more certain he shouldn’t be sentenced to prison.
He is intellectually disabled. He should be living in an institution - not in prison.
