Mom takes legal action against bullies

POJOAQUE, N.M. (KRQE) - It's not uncommon for middle school kids to come home with magic marker and ink on them, but an angry mother says the way they got on her son has her outraged and now she's demanding action.

Roberta Lujan says her 12-year-old son Margarito was at school at the Pojoaque Valley Sixth Grade Academy, when two of his fellow classmates went to town.

She says they took magic markers and wrote all over her son's face, arms and neck.? She says the boys also poured orange juice in his back-pack, destroying his cell-phone and books.?

Lujan says the school district waited four hours to notify her about the incident all the while her son? was left to walk around school with ink on him.

She says the bullying happened back in October, but says nothing was done so Lujan filed a police report with the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Department.?

The department confirmed deputies are investigating, but so far no one has been charged in the case.

"It's very cruel because he's having trouble sleeping.? He's having trouble functioning.? He doesn't want to go to school and he's one of the best kids in class," Lujan said.

Pojoaque Schools Superintendent Adan Delgado says district employees spent hours investigating the case.? He could not say if the kids involved have been disciplined, but says the district is doing everything possible to eliminate bullying.?
