"Police also spoke to the victim’s teacher from 2019 to 2020, who allegedly said she remembered the victim being “friendly and talkative” and could not recall anything about her being autistic or enrolled in any special education programs. Rather, the teacher said the victim had been “a healthy normal third-grade student, who interacted appropriately with her peers and staff.”
