The mother of an autistic boy who froze to death when his NYPD father made him sleep on a garage floor has been given the go-ahead to sue child protective services and school officials for $200million, a judge has ruled.
Justyna Zubko-Valva claims she had warned child protective services and administrators at her son's school that the eight-year-old Thomas was being abused by his father.
Her fears came true on January 17, 2020, when Thomas froze to death after his father, Michael Valva, locked him in a freezing garage as a form of punishment. Valva's girlfriend, Angela Pollina, allegedly participated in the abuse.
Last week, an Eastern District of New York court advanced Zubko-Valva's lawsuit against numerous CPS officials for deliberate indifference, school officials from the East Moriches Union Free School District for wrongful death claims, and several attorneys for malpractice.
Valva and Pollina were charged with second degree murder in the death, and are currently awaiting trial. The case saw extensive delays due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Back the Blue.

They can sue... doesn’t mean they will win.
Taxpayers will pay thr price, not officials.
And because officials never pay a price, kids will keep dying.
If I were the mother I’d make the government an offer: Fire the people in charge and directly involved, with the loss of pensions and bennies, and I will never sue.
196 million for the lawyers, 2.8 million for costs, and 1.2 million for the mother. Putin’s inflation has impacted the legal profession apparently in a very big way.
If I was on the jury she would get more....
Now that we can begin to hold petty government officals responsible for their actions, it is time to after the large class...
The Judges.
Everytime they let a killer or a kiddie diddler walk, they should be held personally responsible for any damage that individual causes.
Those people are all protected
Damages will come from taxpayer money
True story; about 6 years ago, I got my portion of a class actions suit against ATT. I was a customer for about 10 years. The final total class award was $88,000,000. I got a check for $.08. No joke!!
