The Hinsdalean has filed a Freedom of Information Act request with Hinsdale High School District 86 to obtain more information about a complaint reportedly filed last month regarding a special education driver who had inappropriate interactions with a student.
Attempts to obtain the complaint from attorney Roy McCampbell, who is reportedly representing the family, were unsuccessful. McCampbell, in an email, suggested that the recent loss of his family member was a complicating factor.
“I would appreciate not mentioning the attorney’s name at the law firm; it will put me in a bad standing position on a move forward basis,” he wrote.
McCampbell did not deny that the complaint had been filed.
A reporter who posted a story about the complaint Oct. 24 online did not identify the party from whom he received a copy of the complaint.
There is no request for the document on the district’s FOIA log.
