Why my client, 'clock boy' Ahmed Mohamed, deserves $15m
Texan attorney Kelly Hollingsworth explained why his client, Ahmed Mohamed, is suing the city of Irving and its school district.
Ahmed, 14, made global headlines in September when the homemade clock he brought to school, was mistaken for a bomb by his teacher. His arrest and suspension from school sparked outrage and sympathy from several high-profile figures, including the US President.
Mr Hollingsworth said that the damage to Ahmed was "irreparable" and that no redress would "make him whole".
