Bullied boy kills himself, leaves behind heartbreaking letter describing his battle

At Holy Angels Catholic Academy in Brooklyn, Daniel Fitzpatrick's greatest test had nothing to do with scholastic.The 13-year-old seventh-grader like such a variety of youngsters in schools the nation over — was the objective of tenacious tormenting in view of his evaluations, his weight and his sweet air, relatives told the New York Daily News.This summer, Daniel point by point some of his hardest battles in a letter that blamed colleagues for turning on him and school authorities of overlooking his requests for help. At that point, days before his fourteenth birthday, he chose he'd had enough. On Thursday, he wrapped a belt around his neck and hung himself inside the upper room of his family's Staten Island home. "I surrendered," he wrote in the letter that went before his demise by a few weeks. "The instructors . . . they didn't do anything."Documents acquired by The Washington Post offer a more confused photo of Daniel's life and uncover that some trust the young person's battles reached out past the harassing he confronted at school. The kid's dad, additionally named Daniel Fitzpatrick, told the Daily News that he had been inconsistent with Holy Angels as far back as authorities there prescribed that Daniel rehash the seventh grade at another school. The proposal was hostile, Fitzpatrick told the paper, since he ascribed Daniel's scholastic battles to the hardhearted tormenting he endured, taking note of that the kid's "certainty was totally shattered."In his letter reporting the misuse, Daniel composed that he was harassed by a gathering of five young men at the school. "They did it continually," he composed. "I wound up battling (one kid) and got a broke pinkie." In an announcement, Carolyn Erstad, a representative for the Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn, said that "the key and educators at Holy Angels are crushed over the demise of Daniel Fitzpatrick. I've talked with them finally and can let you know that they really watched over Danny and trust they did their best to help him. "So, we are looking at each occurrence that has happened and assessing each part of school approach." The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention marks tormenting a type of "youth brutality." Taking after a 2013 study, the CDC said that 20 percent of secondary school understudies reported being tormented on school property. An expected 15 percent reported having been tormented electronically in the 12 months before the study. Casualties confront an expanded danger of "gloom, nervousness, rest troubles, and poor school modification," the CDC reported. The previous fall, in a report recorded with New York City's Administration of Children's Services and acquired by The Post, a specialist composed that Daniel was coming up short his classes and participating in irate upheavals in class. "Danny said mother being smashed influences him in everything and makes him irate," the report expressed. "He said father likewise drinks, yet controls himself more than mother. Understudy can't recollect a period when mother was not plastered regularly." The report continued:Danny denies physical misuse by mother and father, yet says Kristen, his more seasoned sister, shrouds him in the storage room or his room when mother is tanked. He says his father and Kristen ensure him." Danny denies self-destructive musings, yet feels furious, pitiful, has contemplations of needing to flee. Mother is rebuking his educators for his disappointments and has composed a few accusatory letters to class. Understudy fears both guardians outrage. Requested that remark on the reports documented with the kids' administrations office, Scott Rynecki, a legal advisor speaking to the Fitzpatrick family, told The Post that they are a piece of a bigger push to dishonor families that present issues for Holy Angels Catholic Academy. To reinforce his case, Rynecki gave The Post a letter from the New York State Office of Children and Family Services, which administers the city organization, tended to Daniel's mom, Maureen Fitzpatrick.The letter expresses that nearby youngster defensive administration found "no tenable confirmation" to trust "that the child(ren) has been mishandled or abused." "Along these lines," the letter proceeds with, "the report has been resolved 'unwarranted.'" "The conviction is that the Catholic school themselves put in some kind of case and addressed the tyke and some way or another wound his cases," Rynecki told The Post. "ACS issued a letter, which completely and totally absolved the family." Calls to ACS looking for input were not promptly returned. Come to by email, a NYPD representative said there had been "no residential related occurrences" at the family's Staten Island habitation "retreating to January of 2015." Erstad, the representative for the Brooklyn see, declined to remark on the reports. In any case, she told The Post that under state rules, a school direction advocate was permitted to get with Daniel together to three times before requiring assent from his folks for more gatherings. An instructor met with Daniel, however his folks declined to give assent for further gatherings, the see representative said. Rynecki, the family lawyer, told The Post that Daniel's passing was a "lamentable circumstance that ought to never have happened." His firm, he said, is thinking about a conceivable wrongful demise claim against the school for neglecting to have "a legitimate harassing aversion program."If there wasn't such a project, he said — or if there was, however it wasn't executed fittingly — "we mean to consider them responsible for the loss of this youthful life." Institute authorities say the school has an avoidance program that trains instructors to perceive indications of harassing and to intercede in a useful way. The foundation's educators have experienced two sessions of the preparation, which endures one to two days as of late, authorities said. The preparation depends on the Olweus harassing counteractive action program. Notwithstanding what may have pushed Daniel to suicide, the staggering response to his demise has been one of sensitivity: As found in messages over the web, he has ended up something of a saint, his cherubic face a grave indication of harassing's grievous toll. "R.I.P. little holy messenger, you're enduring is currently over and you are resting in the arms of adoring holy messengers," Barbara Chandler of Illinois wrote in an online visitor book on the Harmon Funeral Home site. "I am very acquainted with tormenting and what it can do. My child was harassed horribly which prompted drug misuse which prompted an overdose. It will be 3 years 8/19/16." "In 2009, my delightful child Mark likewise passed on by suicide," Nancy Tutz, from New Jersey, included. "Imprint was particularly similar to Danny — a delicate, kind soul with a brilliant heart. I remain with you and guarantee to pay tribute to Danny and Mark, to never remain by and permit anybody to be harassed in my presence."Daniel's memorial service is planned for Wednesday at Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church in Staten Island. A GoFundMe page that planned to raise $10,000 for his remembrance has raised more than $120,000. [Father of claimed Snapchat spooks loses his job] After his child's passing, Fitzpatrick posted a progression of disastrous recordings on Facebook, reprimanding his child's tormentors and empowering different casualties of harassing to stay solid. He alluded to Daniel as a "tender little soul" who "didn't have a mean bone in his body." "To the guardians of the young men that tormented my child, i should simply say that I trust you never need to feel what my family is experiencing at this moment," Fitzpatrick, a 45-year-old worker at the electric organization Con Edison, said in one video. "You get the chance to hold your kids for whatever remains of your lives and their normal lives. I don't get the opportunity to do that any longer. "Your little beasts took that from me and my better half and his sisters." The father included: "I trust the memory of what you did to my child is blazed in your cerebrum for whatever remains of your life and you endure as much as he endured." After two days, a sad Fitzpatrick struck an all the more reassuring tone. Maybe, he said, he may contact youngsters pondering suicide. "The decision that my kid made is an answer, however it's not the right reply," he said. "Try not to give anyone a chance to disparage you in light of the way you look, the way you feel — you matter. You do make a difference. "What's more, I'll let you know truly, you matter to me and you matter to my child." Fitzpatrick said the family had been touched by the overflowing of backing they'd gotten from individuals everywhere throughout the world. There were such a variety of messages that they wouldn't have the capacity to react to every one of them, he said contritely. Each youngster is put on Earth for a reason, and his tyke was the same, he said: While recognizing he was attempting to acknowledge it, Fitzpatrick suggested his child's motivation was to show others about harassing. Still, Fitzpatrick said, there was no encouragement for his family's amazing distress — an injury so profound and excruciating that he said he wouldn't "wish it on his most exceedingly awful adversary." "He was my life," Fitzpatrick said. "He was my adoration. Despite everything he is my adoration. I'm going to convey that on for whatever is left of my life."
