"Esteban East"

Esteban, who had never been in trouble before, was falsely placed into District Alternate Education Placement ("School Jail") for 60 school days without early release. District administration refused to tell Esteban's parent what he had done to deserve school jail, withheld innocence-proving video evidence and witness statements, and kept changing the story about what he had done.

The district actors avoided justice and facts throughout the rigged grievance process, denied Esteban due process and failed to protect him, including the school board who refused to intervene, even after viewing the exonerating video.

Appeals to the TEA proved pointless as state statute allows school districts to be judge and jury of their own actions. Stories like this happen daily in Texas.
