Fox News reports:
A day after a federal judge ordered a New York middle school to reinstate Hosier, a seventh-grade who was suspended for wearing the religious symbol, the 13-year-old Schenectady boy is proudly displaying the symbol in memory of his younger brother who died while clutching it following an accident in 2005. . .
Chantell Hosier confirmed that Raymond wore the beads to Oneida Middle School on Wednesday after Judge Lawrence Klein ordered the boy to be reinstated pending a hearing on June 11 into whether the suspension violated his civil rights.
District officials did not return requests for comment, but they contend Hosier violated a policy banning gang-related clothing such as rosary beads, which are sometimes worn as gang symbols. That led the American Center for Law and Justice to file a lawsuit on Tuesday in U.S. District Court contending Raymond’s suspension last month violated his rights to free speech and religion.
