The reinstatement of a male student accused of sexually assaulting a female classmate in May of 2022 at Mason Middle School has led to a federal lawsuit against the district, administrators, and the boy’s parents.
The boy was expelled following a Title IX investigation.
The lawsuit claims the boy’s parents, who are Ingham County Officials, petitioned and conspired with the Mason School Board to reinstate their son.
