TL;DR Summary

A Virginia teacher who was shot by her 6-year-old student has filed a $40 million lawsuit against school officials, accusing them of gross negligence for allegedly ignoring multiple warnings that the boy had a gun and was in a "violent mood." The lawsuit claims that the school failed to act on reports that the boy had a history of random violence and had strangled and choked his kindergarten teacher. The boy used his mother's gun, which police said was purchased legally. No one, including the boy, has been charged in the shooting.
