Mom Says Coach Ignored Son's Stroke-Causing Brain Injuries During Football Game

With the district's backing, the lawsuit claims, Sunkett taunted his players for not playing "or complaining of symptoms consistent with concussion, including yelling at a student with a head injury to `quit playing like a little (expletive) and get out there."'

John Q. Kelly, New York brain injury lawyer, claims that Sunkett also ridiculed injured players, creating an atmosphere in which injuries were not reported or were underreported, and wouldn't inform parents that their children were injured, including with concussions.
