Dannielle Brown, the mother of a Duquesne University student who plummeted to his death from a dorm room window, has settled her claims against the university, according to a statement from her attorneys and the university.
Marquis Jaylen ‘JB’ Brown had just turned 21 when, after an evening at a friend’s off-campus apartment in October 2018, he began acting erratically back at his dorm, Brottier Hall, officials said.
