Illinois school faces criminal DOJ referral after allegations of forcing girls to change with trans student

The Illinois school district that faced national scrutiny for allegations of forcing middle school girls to change in the same locker room as a transgender student has been referred to the Department of Justice.

The law firm America First Legal (AFL) made the criminal referral of the district Deerfield Public Schools 109 to the DOJ on Tuesday, urging the department to investigate the district and middle school where the allegations occurred for potential violations of federal and state law.

AFL alleged the district violated Code § 241, also known as the "Conspiracy against rights" statute, which makes it a federal crime for two or more people to conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured by the Constitution or laws.

"We ask that your office promptly open a directed criminal investigation into the allegations in the complaint for violations of § 241, take all actions necessary," the complaint reads.

AFL senior counselor Ian Prior advocated for a criminal investigation in a statement.

""The situation at Deerfield Public Schools has gone beyond a Title IX violation and has escalated to a situation that requires the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division to launch a criminal investigation. Students should not have their First, Fourth, and Fourteenth Amendment Rights sacrificed at the altar of radical transgender madness and the woke government bureaucrats that view the Constitution as nothing more than toilet paper should face the long arm of our Justice Department," Prior said."

The teachers involved should be charged individually as well.

Super! About time!

Let’s give them a dose of their medicine.

What I don’t understand is how is this any different than if an adult forced a 10 year old boy and girl to get naked together in their home. Surely that is a crime. And surely their are adults monitoring the locker room who see it all.

No difference at all. But lay fines on the principal, supt., and whomever made them change together. Not the taxpayers.

You can’t have a conspiracy without conspirators.

The world is getting too evil and perverted for me.

I ask you --- what authority figures should have the right to force a minor child to strip in front of them?

Notice I didn't even mention gender --- because it's too fluid. Even people of the same biological sex can't be trusted now.

Just got Hameet Dhillon installed as head of DOJ Division of Civil Rights last week. Let the legal counter attacks begin!

The named perverts should be arrested tonight, and locked up until trial.
This is a sex crime, plain & simple.

“ AFL alleged the district violated Code § 241”

The school administrators should carefully read the statute, especially the last line

18 USC 241

If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; or

If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured—

They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both,

or may be sentenced to death.

[MissNomer]

These school employees are sex offenders. They should be prosecuted as such and put on a sex offender registry, with all that that entails.

You remind me of my beloved father who passed away 14 months ago. He was a steadfast Christian who loved the Lord with all his heart and talked about his faith often. I took him for granted but would love more than anything to be able to talk to him again. There were things left unsaid.

“The teachers involved should be charged individually as well.”

They should be nursing broken bones.

Thank you very much, I appreciate that.

I try to fight and fight but that Old Serpent keeps using a couple of people (not necessarily at FR though that happens) but in my life who seem bound and determined to be a problem.

You can discuss something with them 100X and they go right back to it. There is nothing I can do about it to fix it. I’ve tried everything. Even called for prayer to 4 different ministries this past evening. Eventually got through to 3.

I miss my parents on a daily basis. They were absolutely my best friends. I wish I had said more, done even better and fought harder. I did pretty well but I could have done more.

I can only pray that we’re reaching some. I’ve already seen some astounding numbers so maybe it is doing some good. That Old Serpent has certainly gotten far, especially of late.

I cannot believe that there are actually people that defend biological males in women’s sports. You could have told me that 30 years ago and I would never have believed it possible. We’ll keep fighting, Lord willing.

God bless.

[Revel]

Amen
