Ahmed Mohamed seeking $15 million in damages

IRVING, Texas -- Attorneys for the family of Ahmed Mohamed, the Irving high school student who made headlines after being arrested for bringing a homemade clock to school, have sent letters to the city of Irving and the Irving School District demanding apologies and $15 million in damages.

Both letters claim that Mohamed's civil rights were violated, and he and his family have suffered physical and mental anguish because of the ordeal.

The letters claim Ahmed was singled out "because of his race, national origin, and religion."

"Ahmed never threatened anyone, never caused harm to anyone, and never intended to," read the letter to the city. "The only one who was hurt that day was Ahmed, and the damages he suffered were not because of oversight or incompetence. The school and city officials involved knew what they needed to do to protect Ahmed's rights. They just decided not to do it."

I hope they tell him to drop dead.

Fame and recognition should be his reward.

Seriously? How pathetic. How exactly was this child harmed? Lawyers....get rid of them all.

this kid and his family should have to pay a huge fine for disrupting the school and for the investigation.

Can he say "set up".

15 years.

This was their plan all along. I hope a judge laughs them out of the court room. Of course he will probably still get a chunk of change in a settlement from some liberal idiot. He should have listened to his teacher and LEFT the clock in his locker.

Needs the money since he's moving to dubai

They didn't sue until after they met with Obama.

What a joke

Obama told him how and what to do. What a POS. I hope where ever this family goes to live karma bites them in the @ss.

Screw him and his lawyer. Then sue Obama for supporting him.

We are told to be aware of our surroundings and to report anything suspicious. There is a billboard on route 301 near Waldorf that says the same thing and it was put up by DHS. I guess it is best to ignore all packages and just exit from area, let somebody else worry about it.

Needs money so they can move and he can brush up on his bomb making skills since his first attempt was a complete fail... You can't make a "clock" from pieces you took from a store bought clock.

POS - worthless POS and his family - Obama should be proud freaking country is full of idiots if this kid wins anything.

If this kid is lucky, the Freddie Gray family will raise him. They got their $6M to train new drug mules.

I wonder how many terroeist bombs you can build for 15million dollars?

Steve said...

He brought a suspected bomb into a school, causing how much panic and community expense???? And he wants to get money for doing that?

Hope the judge makes him pay restitution!

Anonymous said...

The family intentionally tried to scare the school and looking to get paid. What Muslim would send a kid to school with a homemade clock! They were set up! America is no dummie!

The judge should make him do community service. Bringing a clock to school that looks like a bomb is wrong.

Rather than being ignorant and racist, you should lookup the father. You might learn that he came to this country years ago, worked hard, started and sold a few companies. Not poor and not a terrorist.

Which race are you claiming they are being racist against? If I came to this country and got everything tax free I wouldn't be poor either! Instead I am made to pay taxes so that jerks like you can this Ahmed can collect benefits.

Bingo! Only a POS Douche Bag would drop the race card. How stupid can they be. This has been proven over and over again that this was the makings of a time bomb not a clock. The only clock was already made and it was part of that time bomb. This person has their head so far up their butt it's a wonder they can breathe.

Unless it's in the hands of a Muslim whose father is known Muslim "activist" and whose sister was expelled for calling in a bomb threat to the school.

Cause might hurt feewings.

Anonymous said...

Probably, and that is why he and his family should be ordered to pay back the cost of the emergency response and investigation.

Anonymous said...

This could be true, but he us also a Muslim activist, and showed his true colors when this happened. He should have been apologizing for the kid's actions.

So much for "cultural sensitivity"....unless you're a perpetually offended black or Muslim.

He deserves none off the above.

I'm sure some idiot will award him. What about the fear he instilled which prompted the action that took place. I'd counter sue!

The family of Freddie Gray were not drug smugglers.

They're parasites, freeloaders and drug addicts. And by now, probably close to broke

My civil rights have been violated too because I am an American and don't get free money to start a business.

No one makes a bomb that complicated. You are clueless. Simple circuit wired to a burner phone is the most common design. Having grown up in Wicomico county, we built bombs over the course of few years as teenagers just for fun and blowing up stumps. Lucky for us, that was when you could do that stuff and nobody called the cops. Y'all just mad because your kids aren't that smart.

Anyone with the name of a muslim prophet should be watched very carefully . Mohamed was a prophet with very bad intentions.

Mohamed just happens to be the most popular name on the planet, but don't let facts get in the way of ignorance.
