Teacher's Aide Accused Of Beating Special Needs Student

"An attack such as this is terribly horrifying within itself, but what makes this more sickening … and more unexcusable is the fact that this attack happened to a 14-year-old child … that has a mental handicap and mental capacity of a 6-year-old child," Blitz Associates CEO Natalie Williams said.

I believe that this is an accusation at this point, not a fact. Let's give it time to breathe, OK?
