KILLEEN, Texas (KWTX) - The father of Serenity Baker, the Killeen teenager who was stabbed and killed at school, has filed a lawsuit against Killeen ISD and Evolv Technologies Inc., the company that produces and provides the district’s weapons detection system.
The lawsuit states that Serenity Baker’s death was a result of the Defendants’ negligence and wrongful conduct.
Serenity Baker was 14 years old when she was stabbed and killed by a fellow classmate in the hallway of Roy J. Smith Middle School on March 20.
The lawsuit states that Serenity would have been entitled to bring this action against them had she survived.
It argues the Texas Constitution guarantees students the right to life, liberty, equal protection and due course of law and that KISD violated Serenity’s rights.
