COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A 16-year-old disabled girl was punched and forced to engage in videotaped sexual acts with several boys in a high school auditorium as dozens of students watched, according to witnesses.
Authorities are investigating and no charges have been filed in the alleged attack last month at Mifflin High School. Four boys suspected of involvement were sent home and have not returned to class.
Also, the principal, Regina Crenshaw, was suspended and will be fired for not calling police, school officials said. And three assistant principals were suspended and will be reassigned to other schools.
Crenshaw had no comment Tuesday.
The girl was forced to perform oral sex on at least two boys, according to statements from school officials, obtained by The Columbus Dispatch.
Part of the alleged assault was videotaped by a student who had a camera for a school project.
School officials found the girl bleeding from the mouth. An assistant principal cautioned the girl's father against calling 911 to avoid media attention, the statements said. The girl's father called police.
Her father said the girl is developmentally disabled. A special education teacher said the teen has a severe speech impediment.

As a parent I would bow my head in shame to call one of these animals my son!
Nope - I wager that one of the dads would complain, "What, you didn't get some before they broke it up? What's wrong with you, boy?"
I thought disabled people didn't count anymore because of their low quality of life.

I had the same though myself.
Other that that,it was just another day in the public schools.
They administration also tell the teachers not to call the law when they get the hell beat of them.
But...but...but, but, but...you don't want your kids to miss out on developing their social skills do you?
very interesting
Father God we pray for our nation. Please return a conscience to our people. Save our land from our wicked direction.
In JESUS name we pray.
AMEN
You should say what's on your mind.
Nope - the FR Mind Police would hunt me down.
Just go to the school's link, and judge for yourself.
Like I said, say what you have to say. What do you want me to judge about a school by just looking at their website?
Drop it.
Why? afraid? You said for me to go look at the website. Now why would you say that? If you have something to say say it otherwise you're a coward.
Amen. This country needs a lot of prayers. Our youth are suffering.
No flame-baiting tonight. See you in Baghdad - or maybe I won't.
Just as I thought. Have a nice evening.
Your definition of bigots and that of the moderators must be different.
The victim had already been identified. Those posters did not pick it up.
132 wasn't posted when your post appeared.
You just added to the issue. I honor your opinion even so.
"would any of the bigots in this thread feel better to know that the victim was black?"
You seem to be suggesting that the posters on this thread wouldn't care about what happened to this poor girl if they knew she was black. That sounds like bigotry on YOUR part.
Like it or not, there's a "bitches and hos" mentality amongst a large percentage of young black males in this country, fueled by rap, that leads to just this sort of crime. If simply bringing that fact up leads to instant charges of racism, then the problem will never be dealt with bcse they'll never be an honest and open discussion about it.
They need a little Wyoming justice, don't ya think?
Gosh, am I glad we started having Sex Ed classes in school. It is so good for the kids! They are so much more thoughtful, aren't they?
Life has become so much better since we started them...really dropped the teen pregnancy rates too!
