Three Students Died Following Hynosis By Their School Principal/Families Awarded $200,000

The families of three students who died within two months of each other after being hypnotized by a high school principal in Florida will each be paid $200,000 in a lawsuit settlement.

Two of the deceased students hanged themselves and one drove off a freeway with his girlfriend, who survived the crash. The parents of Marcus Freeman, the student who died in the car crash, believe that he was trying to use self-hypnosis techniques that Kenney taught him to deal with the pain of a root canal before he died.

Kenney resigned in 2012; he was convicted of two misdemeanors for practicing therapeutic hypnosis without a license, for which he was sentenced to probation and community service
