A thoughtless phone call forced a bereaved father to begin grieving all over again.

Brooklyn teen Jean Fritz Pierre drowned on a class field trip in June, but that didn’t stop school officials who called his devastated dad last week to tell him his son was skipping class.

Jonas Pierre, who this month filed a notice of claim for two $5 million suits against the city over the 16-year-old’s death, said staff from Prospect Heights International High School called him to set up a meeting to discuss his son’s awful attendance record.

The distraught dad said the school’s insensitive phone call broke his heart again just as he began to recover from the greatest loss any parent could ever experience.

Well you gotta have some kind of black market contacts. After all, you are able to give us precise numbers on the cost of a human life.

Why would it? Then I would be a bad person too and I dont like that. No, actually, I think I would like that. Has a nice sound to it.

I'm pretty sure you can buy people in Haiti for like... $80. Might be worth looking into.
