Councilman Sues Schoolboard for Hazing Incident

The Advocate reports that Ascension Parish Councilman Jerry Savoy has filed suit against the Ascension Parish School Board, a high school football coach, and the parents of three students that allegedly hazed Savoy's son. The suit, which was filed on Tuesday, would have prescribed today. Savoy, who was recently re-elected to his spot on the council, claims that he wants to stop future incidents. The school board, however, has already adopted an anti-hazing policy and criminal charges are being pursued against the students responsible for the incident.
