A white Massachusetts teen has pleaded guilty to attempted murder and assault with a dangerous weapon one year after he was accused of trying to drown a Black boy.
John P. Sheeran, now 15, is accused of pushing another boy underwater multiple times while using racial slurs, laughing, and calling him "George Floyd" when the victim repeatedly said he could not breathe. The assault ended when a bystander intervened, bringing the victim -- who could not swim -- back to shore.
