A seventh-grade boy was allegedly raped by another male student during gym class at Barack Obama Global Preparation Academy in Los Angeles two weeks ago.
The 13-year-old boy, identified only as Julian, is a special-needs student at the middle school, reports KTLA. He has the mental capacity of a six-to-eight year old.
The boy’s parents, who are also only identified by their first names, announced plans to to sue the Los Angeles Unified School District on Monday.
At a press conference, Brian Claypool, an attorney retained by the family, said that Julian’s physical education teacher left Julian unsupervised during class. The alleged assailant, an unidentified eighth-grade boy, then lured Julian behind a set of bleachers and sexually assaulted him.
Julian’s mother said she filed a complaint some two months ago because she feared that other students were bullying Julian during gym class. She says school officials did nothing in response.
Both parents now argue that school officials should face criminal charges for criminal child endangerment charges, according to KTLA.
Claypool characterized the alleged incident as part of a broad failure on the part of the embattled school district to train staff and safeguard students. He argued that someone should have been monitoring the unknown assailant.
“How was he wandering throughout the school, running around, recruiting another boy to have sex with him behind a bleacher?” Claypool demanded indignantly in front of a bevy of reporters. “Does anybody at LAUSD care where the kids are during a class?”
Julian’s parents also spoke at the press conference.
“Somebody, that particular day, dropped the ball,” said the 13-year-old boy’s mother Toyian.
“You can tell he’s ashamed,” she also said. “I mean, if I was raped or assaulted, I would be ashamed.”
“I am not happy,” Julian’s outraged father Mark added. “This should never take place — not just to my son, any kid.”
The school district has released a statement concerning the alleged incident: “Allegations of student-on-student misconduct are taken seriously. Upon learning of the allegations, the school site acted to appropriately document and notify authorities of the suspected abuse. Although we cannot comment on the specific allegations or any potential lawsuit in this case, we are committed to ensuring student safety at all times.”
The Los Angeles Police Department has opened a criminal investigation into the incident.
Who are we to judge. /s
Glee!
He's the one who is in the wrong.
Its a metaphor for America - the entire country is “Barack Obama Prep”
Anything associated with zro’s name carries the moniker; “enabler”
Before the linguistic activism that helped clear the way for increases in such atrocious abominations, that was called forcible sodomy and was known to be worse than rape.
Something about this “unknown” assailant and how “he should have been monitored” crap just does not ring true.
Given what I know now, I’d say the “assailant” is not unknown, but is a minority who must be protected.
I hope that kid sues the school and the rapist gets time and has to register as a sexual offender along with the lookouts if they had them.
This kid is going to be screwed up at the very least until he graduates high school, kids are vicious and he'll hear about it forever.
Now, if he says he's gay, then he'll get all kinds of accolades; what a screwed up society.
When I saw the title, I though of this Julian:
I missed the part of this being the LA School district and that the LAPD will do the investigating.
They should just combine both institutions into one.
>> boy ... raped by another male student... at Barack Obama Global Preparation Academy
Just living up to its name.
>> ... He has the mental capacity of a six-to-eight year old.
So — the rapist could be one of Obama’s queer sons... and the victim could be one of his advisors! It’s a twofer!
Somebody, that particular day, dropped the ball,” said the >>>13-year-old boy’s mother Toyian.
“You can tell he’s ashamed,” she also said. “I mean, if I was raped or assaulted, I would be ashamed.”
“I am not happy,” Julian’s outraged father Mark added. “This should never take place — not just to my son, any kid.” <<<
How long before the MSM labels the parents “homophobes” for objecting the the homosexual rape of their child, as was done to the parents of that 14 year old girl, raped by the 18 year old woman?
WTF is a “global preparation academy” anyway? Prepping for global government? Lame.
In nobamaworld isn’t this accepted behavior. Why...something is wrong with you if you don’t think this is beautiful in nobamaworld. It would be even better if one or the other kids was a tranny, wouldn’t it?
Perhaps this is off topic, but the article says that there was a history of bullying the mentally disabled boy. I question the wisdom of “mainstreaming” a child with the mental capacity of a six-year-old into a school with high school students and the freedom of movement between classrooms that is implied in a High School setting.
Special Needs students require some special skills, training, and a little more sheltered environment than what this school provides.
(Of Course, I am NOT excusing the Sodomite! He should be prosecuted as an adult for committing an adult crime against a mentally disabled kid. HEINOUS!!!!!)
Just my opinion, but I DO teach “Special Needs” kids and adults.
Seventh Grade.
I should have said “Middle School” instead of “High School”, but that age group can be even MORE brutal to disabled kids.
Why, yes! It does!
What the heck???
