The California school settles with the student Ameduri, who is accused of wearing “Blackface” in football game

A student of the California middle school, who allegedly carried “Blackface” to a football game in October 2023, had his record deleted in a settlement with the school after he said that he simply wore an eye black in many sports.

Daniel Ameduri sued the Muirlands Middle School in La Jolla, California, on behalf of his son about October 13, 2023, which led to a two-day suspension and was prohibited from participating in district sports events.

“The false allegations of Blackface on JAS constant school records could have followed him for decades and have had both his training and future career opportunities,” said Karin Sweigart, a lawyer of YES and DHILLON LAW Group Counsel, in a statement on Fox News Digital.

The court approved the agreement on February 24, which had triggered the two -day suspension of yes.

As part of the agreement, no district officer or employee refers to the suspension in a message with others.

“It is a relief that the school district has finally corrected this injustice,” added Sweigart. “No student should have to fight to clarify his name for unfounded accusations, which is why organizations such as the Center for American freedom exist – to ensure fairness and protect fundamental rights.”

Yes, now a newcomer to the high school, was in the 8th grade when the incident took place.

On January 17, 2024, he joined his father with “Fox & Friends” and said that nothing was the ordinary about what happened.

“I went a lot of football games when I lived in Texas and I played football, and sometimes we put it on when one of the children brought it with me,” he said.

Ja's father said he was “shocked” days later when his son was called to the headmaster's office and then suspended.

In an explanation of Fox News Digital, Mark Trammell, Executive Director of Center for American Liberty: “We are so proud of YES and his family. When students and parents wake up this nonsense in schools, they win. Let JaS victory be a lesson for students and parents everywhere. “

Fox News Digital turned to the Muirlands Middle School to get a comment, but did not immediately receive an answer.
