School Board Upholds Expulsion Of Middle School Student After Attorney Argues Punishment Does Not Fit The Crime

A 13-year-old Lutcher High Middle School student accused of bullying in the football locker room was recently expelled by the St. James Parish School District’s administration and Tuesday evening the student and his attorney appealed the administration’s decision to the full School Board. The accused student, Legend Guerra, and his attorney Wilbur Reynaud, chose to conduct the expulsion appeal in public rather than the traditional method of going behind closed doors in Executive Session, and during the lengthy hearing Reynaud argued his client was not only unfairly and harshly punished, but also argued the way the Administration’s handled the case and came to a decision to expel was severely flawed and unfair.
