BOSTON (AP) — A former dean at a Boston high school known affectionately by students as “Rev” has been ordered by a federal judge to pay more than US$10 million in damages to a former student he was convicted of trying to kill in a dispute over drug sales.
The default judgment Friday against former English High School Dean Shaun Harrison includes US$7.5 million in damages for pain, suffering and emotional distress; US$2.5 million in punitive damages; and more than US$80,000 for the victim’s medical bills.
......
The victim, who had been recruited by Harrison to sell marijuana, was 17 when he was shot in the back of the head at point-blank range on a snowy Boston street in March 2015.
......
It’s unclear whether the victim will ever get any money from Harrison.
