The <br /> incident, which took place during school hours, has raised urgent questions regarding the district's <br /> responsibility to protect its students," a statement from the family's lawyers said. <br /> Dig deeper: <br /> According to the family's lawyers, the Santa Ana Police Officers Union sent a letter to the Santa Ana <br /> Unified School District Board demanding they address certain safety needs on campus. The letter <br /> identified three major incidents involving after-school threats and assaults. <br /> "This school district has been put on notice about these red flags, these safety concerns since August <br /> of 2023, and they did nothing. They didn't have enough staff supervising the kids as they're getting <br /> out for the day," Carrillo said. "They didn't have enough time and attention to pay to these cases, <br /> resulting in the horrendous murder." <br /> https://www.foxla.com/news/family-teen-stabbed-death-santa-ana-high-school-file-lawsuit-against- <br /> district <br /> -Santa Ana California <br />
