A Colorado paraprofessional has been hit with felony assault charges for allegedly abusing multiple non-verbal children with special needs on several occasions, with at least two of the disturbing incidents being caught on camera.
According to Vestal, her son’s foot had a large bruise that looked like a “bowling ball” had been dropped on it. That was already bad enough, but further investigation by the authorities found that this was not the first time Jones had allegedly abused him. Blake McBride is speaking out against Littleton Public Schools — located in the Denver metropolitan area — after police told him that Jones victimized his son just a day after district superintendent Todd Lambert “ensured” him that his “son was not present or a victim in this case.”
“I had assumed that when his teachers had a rough time getting off the bus there wasn’t a grown woman who was verbally and physically torturing my son and his friends. My son doesn’t have the ability to tell me when school is hurting him,” the heartbroken father said. One day, the boy reportedly even “came home without one of his back baby teeth, even though it hadn’t been loose that morning.”
Ed Hopkins Jr., who is representing the Vestal, Yarbrough, and McBride families, is fighting to ensure school officials are held accountable.
