High school football players suspended after vile locker room bullying incident was leaked

A Northern California high school football team has been rocked by a shocking locker-room hazing incident that was reportedly recorded on a cell phone.

At least three unidentified varsity football players at Elk Grove High School are accused of humiliating a freshman student by pulling his pants down and simulating sexual acts on him, two sources with knowledge of the situation told The Sacramento Bee.

The players involved in the incident were reportedly suspended from the team, according to The Bee, which reports they already missed Elk Grove's home opener on Friday.

Elk Grove Unified School District spokesperson Lisa Levasseur has addressed the allegations, telling The Bee that 'appropriate disciplinary action has been taken with the students involved.'

What's more, Levasseur's office 'has been working closely with law enforcement to investigate the incident,' she told The Bee.

A September 4 email from Elk Grove principal Rudy Ortega to the parents of Thundering Herd players referenced 'a matter that requires our collective attention and actions.'

'It has come to our attention that a group of student-athletes have engaged in behaviors that do not align with the standards of conduct and character we uphold at Elk Grove High School,' Ortega wrote, as reported by The Bee.

Ortega explained that an investigation will 'address the issue with transparency and accountability.' What's more, she said increased supervision around the locker room will be implemented while the school's 'locker room culture' and student-athlete conduct will also be evaluated.

As explained by The Bee, The California Interscholastic Federation is not responsible for issuing suspensions for players engaged in hazing, instead leaving those decisions to schools.

Hopefully the suspension was not just in school suspension.

If something like this happened in the workplace the perps would be sent to jail. When this happens in a school the perps might get suspended.

Why do we protect adults more than we protect our children?

Only if the victim was female.

I have been around sports my whole life, and there are ways to do “rites of passage” for the newbies on a team without this perverted stuff.

This is not just politically incorrect language, or an attempt at being an “alpha male” that went a little too far.

The perpetrators need to be punished.

With this becoming national news it is a good chance that
this will become a national issue with some national groups
getting involved. Age may also play a determinging factor

ALL schools should quit acting like a separate society separate from whatever community they are in, and state laws should require, by law, that school discipline cannot substitute for legal action when any behavior committed is a behavior punishable by the law. When something could be punishable by law, the school must turn the matter over to the legal authorities.

“’It has come to our attention that a group of student-athletes have engaged in behaviors that do not align with the standards of conduct and character we uphold at Elk Grove High School,’ Ortega wrote, as reported by The Bee.”

The punishment needs to be stronger than the public relations statement.

Does “simulate” mean they didn’t do anything?

Why the mods leave your comments up is a real mystery to me.

I wonder why sports hazing is so often homoerotic.

Since sports, even at the HS level, has become a means of dispensing state aid in the grand trough that the government has become, then, they need to clean up the corruption here, there, everywhere.

Maybe, just maybe, a kid just wants to participate without being hazed. He/she ought to be able to do so.

Oh yeah, in school too. Not just in the athletic department.

It’s not a Northern California phenomenon or even a homosexual phenomenon. Reports of locker-room hazing including sexual assault have appeared all over the country for years. It’s a power thing.

Maryland, Chicago, LA, New Jersey, Vermont, Oklahoma, Indiana...Google “locker room hazing broom stick.”
