"Landmark $27M Settlement Reached in Tragic Bullying Case: Justice for Family of Slain Boy"

The Moreno Valley Unified School District has agreed to pay $27 million to the family of Diego Stolz, an eighth-grader who died in a bullying incident at Landmark Middle School four years ago. The settlement comes after a graphic video of the attack showed two teenage boys assaulting Stolz, resulting in a traumatic brain injury that led to his death. The family sued the school district, alleging ongoing harassment and the school's failure to address the bullying. The settlement, the largest bullying settlement in the nation's history, aims to bring about change in school districts across the country and promote anti-bullying measures.
