The grieving family of 12-year-old Khimberly Zavaleta Chuquipa has filed a lawsuit against the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), alleging the district failed to protect the young girl from ongoing bullying that ultimately led to her tragic death.

The lawsuit, filed Wednesday, claims school officials ignored repeated warnings about bullying on campus and allowed a dangerous environment to persist, an alleged failure the family says cost their daughter her life.
