Last April, 15-year-old Alycia Reynaga was murdered at Stockton's Amos Alonzo Stagg High School when an intruder armed with a knife slipped through an unlocked gate onto campus and attacked her. Reynaga's family has secured as counsel Attorney Allen Sawyer of The Law Offices of Allen Sawyer in filing a civil lawsuit against the Stockton Unified School District.
STOCKTON, Calif., April 21, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Law Offices of Allen Sawyer announce that Attorney Allen Sawyer will act as counsel for the parents of slain Stockton high school student Alycia Reynaga in their negligence and wrongful death lawsuit filed against the Stockton Unified School District, former Superintendent John Ramirez, Jr., and Amos Alonzo Stagg High School Principal Brett Toliver (Case# STK-CV-UPI-2023-2710). Sawyer will provide legal representation for Reynaga's family alongside Joseph Goethals of Goethals Legal, PC.
According to the March 3, 2023 complaint filed with the San Joaquin County Superior Court, the Reynaga family alleges that the stabbing death of Alycia Reynaga on school grounds could have been avoided if the school district had consistently implemented safety measures that would have prevented the alleged suspect, Anthony Gray, from driving into the school's front parking lot, approaching, and fatally stabbing Reynaga. Specifically, the complaint alleges that Reynaga's death "was directly and proximately caused by the negligent, reckless, and/or willful acts and/or omissions" of employees and agents of the Stockton Unified School District, all of which are imposed duties under state and federal law.
"Alonzo Stagg High School in particular had very strong security measures that they had already decided were necessary; this is a very unfortunate event for Ms. Reynaga." Sawyer told ABC10.
