The mother of a child who died as a result of getting hit by a car just outside his Washington, D.C., school is suing the school for $50 million.
Kaidyn Green, 9, had been summoned by the office at Kipp DC Honor Academy on Dec. 10 for an early release by his mother, who claimed through her lawyer in a press conference Friday that she had previously picked him up this way several times. Instead of accompanying the child to the front office, where his mother Tiffani Green was waiting, he was left unaccompanied and walked out of the school by himself. He then tried to cross the road but was hit by a car.
Green wore sunglasses while her attorney spoke and was seated in between her two sisters at the conference. She was first to the scene of the accident, having heard the collision from the front office. Kaidyn was her only son.
