A New Haven attorney is asking permission to sue the state for $100 million on behalf of a student who survived the mass shooting at a Newtown school.
Pinsky said the 6-year-old student, identified as “Jill Doe,” was in her classroom at Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14 when “the horrific confrontation” with Adam Lanza came over the loudspeaker. Lanza killed 20 first grade students and six adult staffers at the school before killing himself. Pinsky said the student has been traumatized by the killings, and accused the state of failing to protect students from “foreseeable harm.”
