I'm glad they are looking into it further....sad and disgusting it took so long for them to take it seriously

This is outrageous. If everything in the article is true, people/person should lose their job over not investigating the incident and if someone did carve this into this boy's back, that person/people should be held criminally responsible.

He's nonverbal, so he can't tell anyone who did this to him. That's even more disgusting.

It's not actually a swastika, but the symbol, or the letters it spells out, is no less disturbing: "SA", the Sturmabteilung (Storm Division) of the NSDAP. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturmabteilung

This makes it even crazier and more violent IMO - this is someone with specific knowledge and hatred. The image of the wound on his skin in the article is heartbreaking ):

This is so tragic. Imagine his feelings of helplessness and parents' heartbreak.
Was he supposed to have an aide with him? Maybe he independently navigates the school, though.
