Wood told LifeSite the recipients of the notices “continues to grow in number” and the team is “in the process of sending formal written retraction demands in conformity with statutes in states in which litigation may be filed.”
According to the news source, the Diocese of Covington continues to investigate Sandmann and his classmates.
“We have no idea why the investigation by the Diocese has not been concluded but we are confident that any objective review of the evidence will conclude that Nick did nothing wrong,” Wood said, when asked about it.
“Nick remained calm and well-mannered despite being confronted by an activist beating a drum within inches of his face while chanting loudly,” the attorney continued. “Nick did not utter one word except to quietly urge a classmate to refrain from making any comments that might aggravate the situation created by Phillips and the Black Hebrew Israelites.”
Just as troubling, Wood said that school officials were preventing Sandmann from attending class until they intervened and “made clear to the school that we would not tolerate Nick being isolated and singled out based on specious claims.” |
