Former school security guard John Darjean testified Wednesday in the ongoing bankruptcy trial of Shilo Sanders. Darjean detailed a 2015 incident at a Dallas school, alleging that Sanders struck him in the neck, causing injuries that resulted in long-term health issues including incontinence. Sanders is currently seeking to discharge an $11.89 million default judgment awarded to Darjean in 2022 following a lawsuit over the altercation. During the third day of the trial, Sanders maintained his position that he did not assault Darjean and claimed he was the target of aggression during the encounter. The bankruptcy proceedings aim to determine if the judgment debt qualifies as a result of willful and malicious injury, which would prevent it from being discharged. The trial continues as a judge considers evidence to decide whether the financial liability remains binding.
