Fox 26 TV Houston: DRTx education advocacy attorney Shiloh Carter is representing a student with autism and epilepsy who says he was abused by teachers and students. “No one, whether you have disabilities or not, should be treated the way he was treated…It was appalling and horrific to watch,” said Carter. There is overwhelming surveillance video evidence from November 17, 2017, backing her client’s claim.
