A 10-year-old boy in the US state of Indiana killed himself after being subjected to “horrific bullying” at school, according to his family, who said they raised the alarm at least 20 times in the last year.

Sammy’s parents said they complained to the school nearly 20 times about the bullying that started last year when he was in elementary school. “They were making fun of him for his glasses in the beginning, then on to make fun of his teeth. It went on for a long time,” his dad said. “He was beat up on the school bus, and the kids broke his glasses and everything,” he said. “I called the school, and I’m like, ‘What are you doing about this? It keeps getting worse, and worse, and worse,’” the dad claimed.
Despite claims of relentless bullying, the school district’s superintendent denied any such reports had ever been submitted. However, the district authorities did acknowledge that the school’s administrators and counselor had regular talks with the family throughout the year. Sammy’s family asserted that their fears had been made clear. “They knew this was going on. They knew this was going on,” the dad said.
Sammy’s grandma was livid at the district claiming it has a zero-tolerance policy on bullying. ”That they can’t just say they have zero tolerance because that doesn’t mean there is zero tolerance about bullies, their zero tolerance means that they don’t have responsibility for it,” Cynthia Teusch told a local state outlet.
“People trust their kids to the school, but now that trust is breaking down.” The boy’s mom claimed her son took her life because of the constant bullying. According to the mom, the boy mentioned an unspecified incident in a bathroom last week which left him too afraid to go to school. “He was my little boy. He was my baby. He was the youngest one,” she was quoted as saying by The Post.

Bellarmine Transfer Langdon Hatton Commits to Indiana
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana added another piece to the frontcourt on Wednesday by landing transfer Langdon Hatton.
Hatton is a 6-foot-10, 240-pound forward who spent the last two seasons at Bellarmine after beginning his career with one season at William and Mary. Hatton is an Indiana native, having grown up in Georgetown, Ind. and graduating from North Harrison High School in Ramsey, Ind., near Louisville, Ky.
As a junior in 2023-24 at Bellarmine, Hatton averaged 10.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.8 blocks per game. He shot 48% from the field, 33.3% from 3-point range (15 for 45) and 67.5% from the free throw line. He started 31 games and played 27.8 minutes per game for a Bellarmine team that went 8-23 and finished last in the Atlantic Sun Conference.
Now Hatton joins the Hoosiers with one year of eligibility. He’s Indiana’s fifth transfer portal addition of the offseason and sixth overall newcomer on coach Mike Woodson’s 2024-25 roster, joining Washington State guard Myles Rice, Arizona center Oumar Ballo, Stanford guard Kanaan Carlyle, Illinois wing Luke Goode and five-star freshman wing Bryson Tucker.
Those players replace graduating Hoosiers Xavier Johnson and Anthony Walker, Kel’el Ware, who entered the NBA draft, and transfers CJ Gunn (DePaul), Kaleb Banks (Tulane) and Payton Sparks (Ball State).
Most of Hatton’s scoring came around the rim last season, with 7.2 2-point attempts per game. But he also proved to be a capable 3-point shooter, attempting 1.5 per game. He ranked 10th in the Atlantic Sun in defensive rebounding percentage, 12th in block percentage and 15th in offensive rebounding percentage.
Hatton had five double-doubles in 2023-24. He scored a career-high 27 points at Kennesaw State, making 11-of-17 shots from the field and a perfect 3-for-3 from 3-point range. His career-high 17 rebounds came in a win over Boyce College.
As a sophomore in 2022-23, Hatton started six games and came off the bench in 27. Across 12.8 minutes per game, he averaged 3.5 points and 2.3 rebounds per game while shooting 58% from the field.
Hatton began his career at William and Mary, where he averaged 4.4 points and 2.7 rebounds per game in 14.8 minutes per game. He started six games and came off the bench in 24.
Malik Reneau returns to Indiana for his junior year in 2024-25 after averaging 15.4 points and 6.0 rebounds per game as the starting power forward. Ballo figures to start alongside Reneau in the front court, following two seasons as a first-team All-Pac-12 center at Arizona. Hatton provides depth behind them, and Indiana could also play Mackenzie Mgbako and Luke Goode at power forward in smaller lineups.
Here’s a look at Indiana’s roster after the addition of Hatton.

Indiana Wesleyan names dean of business school – Inside INdiana Business
Loading audio file, please wait.
A senior executive with the AAA Hoosier Motor Club and an alum of Indiana Wesleyan University has been named dean of the university’s DeVoe School of Business, Technology, and Leadership. Andy Hughes began his new role April 29.
As chief innovation officer of the 450,000-member central Indiana automobile association, Hughes helped spearhead strategy and innovations, including the launch of a mobile tire replacement program, a text-alert partnership that warns drivers of upcoming roadside repairs underway, and employee training and professional development.
”Dr. Hughes is the right person to lead the DeVoe School because of his real-world experience as a strategic and innovative business executive and his ability to translate industry needs into academic programs,” university President Dr. Jon Kulaga said in a news release. “We are looking forward to his positive impact on the business school.”
Hughes worked for 30 years at AAA, where during his tenure he helped lead a 100% increase in business line revenue and improved customer-service rankings, the university said.
“I am deeply appreciative of this opportunity to serve as the Dean of the DeVoe School of Business, Technology and Leadership and to work with my colleagues as we continue to re-imagine business education and its applications to today’s environment,” Hughes said in the release.
Hughes earned a doctorate in business administration and management from IWU in 2022. Earlier in his career, Hughes was a pastor at Zion Community Church of the Nazarene outside Bloomington.
The hire reflects the latest step by the university to refocus its approach toward business education through IWU-National & Global, the arm of the university that administers its online platform and 11 regional centers in Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky. Over the next few months, the university said it will continue to recruit experts in business, marketing, technology and organizational leadership, develop new degree programs and forge key workforce partnerships.
“Dr. Hughes’s arrival coincides with our efforts to build on our deep history of online education success by re-calibrating the DeVoe experience for students seeking skills for today’s workplace and for employers who demand an innovative workforce,” Dr. Eileen Hulme, chancellor of IWU-National & Global, said.
