Teacher’s aide due in court Brownsburg vomit case
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Attorneys for a child who was forced to eat his own vomit at a Brownsburg school say they expect a former teacher’s aide to change her plea in the case at a hearing Tuesday.
Online court records show a pre-trial conference for Debra Kanipe set for 1 p.m. before Judge Rhett Stuart. Kanipe is charged with neglect of a dependent and failure to report.
Prosecutors say Kanipe handed the child a spoon after his teacher, Sara Seymour, told him to eat his own vomit in 2023.
Last month, a judge sentenced Seymour to less than a year of probation.
Attorneys for the student’s family released a statement from his mother saying her son has since developed a fear of food and no longer trusts adults.
