In La Puerta, California three teenage soccer players have accused their opponent teammates of sexual assault. This has frightened many parents living in the area and their coach is facing charges and put on administrative leave because of suspicion of something to do with this accusation. Parents, in frustration, made signs and banners calling the school officials to be accountable. Four people were cited and could face charges. Three are minors and the fourth an 18 year old. The officials have not found any physical injuries that could be evidence to their trial.
This is relevant because sexual assault is quite a big issue in this world today. The trial is still in progress, so we do not who the attacker is, even though we assume it is the other team players.

This is very scary. Hopefully the attacker will be convicted.
ReplyDeleteIt is a really frightening world we live in today. Why should things like this even happen? I believe people need to learn how to control themselves. I hope that the perpetrator is found.
ReplyDeleteIt is so sad to hear story's like this one. It really makes you stop and think about the world we live in now. I hope everything turns out alright with them.
ReplyDeleteThe school bored should be held accountable. Especially if one of them knew or thought something was going on! I feel bad for those poor children, and why are they just speaking up?
