All around the country — Outside Cleveland, Ohio’s Ben Franklin Elementary School, a 10-year-old girl was physically abused by a USPS employee who was captured on camera while still in uniform.
The incident happened shortly after the end of the school day in September of last year.
A number of procedural errors caused the matter to remain unresolved for months in spite of unambiguous video footage and a police report that described the confrontation.
The young girl said that while walking to her school bus, she was first attacked by another student carrying a book bag.
According to the report submitted by an officer with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) Police Department.
She went on to say that the student’s mother, a USPS employee, physically intervened to intensify the situation.
According to the officer’s report, the girl’s head struck a nearby tree after the mother pushed her to the ground and called her a disparaging name.
