Can the district be sued, by these poor parents, who’ve suffered the unthinkable over this absurd policy??

Of course they can. But who will pay? The district’s insurance carrier and the district’s taxpayers.

The district doesn’t care; the people that failed to report this nut don’t pay the settlements - the taxpayers (including the parents of the dead victims) will pay the bill.

Once owners or shareholders are out of the equation, common-sense legal concepts disappear as well. Whether they are police brutality cases, child rapes by those in charge of children, FBI ignoring warning flags - in the end, there are no “owners” paying the legal bills/settlements - just us.

This is a real obstacle to these “prisoner re-entry” programs, by which the government wants employers to hire convicts upon their release. There is a liability issue for the employers if these convicts attack someone on the job; why would the owner(s) assume that responsibility?
