Legal fees

My name is Kasey Brooks and I am creating this gofund because on 9/1/21 I watched video surveillance of my two year old, non verbal son being physically abused and mishandled by his preschool teacher. For 3 hours I watched his teacher spank him, hit him in the head, slap him with a book, shove him to the ground, snatch him up by one arm and carry him across the room multiple times, slam him in his seat to make him eat lunch alone in time-out, pick him up by his ankles and hold him on his neck/head, grab his face so hard his cheeks were touching in his mouth as she was nose to nose with him, amongst other things. The daycare director dismissed her employee's actions and ensured me she would be keeping her job. She claimed to see nothing wrong with the teacher's abusive behavior until she could no longer deny what we both had watched and asked me what I wanted to do about it……. I was only allowed to watch the footage from ONE day and only ONE of the two cameras in the room. I had several employees try to stop me from watching it after I had seen “certain events”. Because I had already been told I could watch the entire day, I didn’t waiver with the intimidation tactic. I’m thankful for going with our gut and modern technology that recorded all of this, but now I’m hoping for justice for my son. We have a long battle ahead of us, unfortunately I wasn’t aware until I contacted Bright from the Start that it is not a licensed program, which means Bright from the start (they handle all daycare and preschool investigations in the state EXCEPT for programs that file for exemptions) does not have jurisdiction to investigate. The outpouring love and support is so overwhelming and words truly can’t express how thankful we are. I have had people reaching out wanting to help and asking us to create this page. We cannot go into anymore detail than what we have right now, but know that updates will be made as we proceed when we are able to do so. Again, THANK YALL
