LAWRENCE'S FAMILY NOW SUING SCHOOL: THEY BELIEVE THIS IS THE REASON THEIR CHILD WAS KILLED

Ya.. See I don't know about this kinda stuff. Suing for everything just seems odd. The family of slain 15 yr old Lawrence King are now suing their kid's school because they did not enforce the dress code. They believe this is the reason their son was killed. Hmmmm I dunno if this is a good claim..

The family of a gay Oxnard teenager who was fatally shot in class is suing the school district, claiming its failure to enforce the dress code led to the boy's death.

The parents and brother of 15-year-old Larry King filed a personal injury claim against the Hueneme (weye-NEE'-mee) school district seeking unspecified damages.

King, an eighth-grader at E.O. Green Junior High School, was shot in February. His classmate Brandon McInerney pleaded not guilty to the shooting last week. He is charged as an adult and also faces a charge of a committing a hate crime.

The claim, filed last week in Ventura County Superior Court, says administrators and teachers failed to enforce the school's dress code when King wore feminine clothing and makeup to school. [SOURCE]
