Should be noted her actual lawsuit did not mention anything about not being able to read, it's suing her case manager for bullying

I think this is a better explanation of the situation: https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/27/us/connecticut-aleysha-ortiz-...

It seems like she needed special ed assistance with reading that she unfortunately wasn't getting.

> In early education, teachers told her to “stay in a corner and sleep” or “draw pictures for them.” In high school, she relied on speech-to-text programs for every assignment. Teachers knew. Administrators knew. Nobody did anything. Now she’s a freshman at UConn studying public policy — and she still can’t read the textbooks.

Sounds like everyone else failed. Every single other person failed. A:Not(I)~>Fail(A).
