Student With Down Syndrome Sues College Over Disability Discrimination and Retaliation

Caden Cox, a student with Down syndrome, is suing Hocking College for disability discrimination and retaliation related to his treatment as a student and employee.
Cox was the first person with Down syndrome to score in a college football game but faced harassment and threats from his supervisor at the campus recreation center.
When Cox and his parents complained to the college president, Cox's awards and recognitions were taken away in retaliation.
The lawsuit alleges Cox faced persistent verbal abuse, discrimination, and threats from his supervisor, including an incident where the supervisor threatened Cox with a knife.
Cox is suing the college, the college president, and several staff members over the harassment and retaliation.
