A nine-year-old girl was gang-raped at school. The district thought the proper punishment was to suspend the alleged rapists for one whole day - without the involvement of law enforcement. Subsequently, the school not only failed to protect the child but decided not to fulfill its fiduciary duty in reporting child sex abuse to authorities.

Subsequently, the family filed a $9 million lawsuit against Portland Public Schools.

According to the Daily Mail:

Last month, the family of the unidentified nine-year-old girl filed the suit in Multnomah County Circuit Court and alleged both the district and a non-profit after-school program failed to protect the youngster.

According to the lawsuit, in April 2022, two male students in the program, Schools Uniting Neighborhoods, at Scott Elementary School in Northeast Portland, told the girl they would 'find out where she lives' if she didn't tell the staff she needed to use the bathroom.

She complied and went to the bathroom, as the other students followed her, locked her in a stall, took off her pants and each 'forcibly penetrated' her, the lawsuit, reviewed by Oregon Live, stated.

As she tried to ward them off, the boys made it impossible for her to escape as they took turns blocking the doors, documents said.

The father of one of the boys reported the incident and his son and the other boy were suspended for just one day, the lawsuit said.

Prior to their suspension, instead of getting the police involved in the alleged sexual assault, 'PPS staff undertook their own internal investigation,' the lawsuit said.

Staff also interviewed the girl without telling her parents, family or any legal representatives, according to the suit.

How can kids that young be responsible for such horrible crimes? I did not even know what the word “rape” meant when I was that age.

This is not a behavioral offense where a simple suspension would suffice. This is a very serious crime where sexual abuse was committed to a child. How can the school be so incompetent that they don’t understand the consequences of what has happened? It’s almost as if they could not even pretend to care.

That’s so awful.

You might also be wondering how two boys can just walk into the girls’ restroom like that. Remember, this is Portland. They likely have a trans bathroom policy and school officials probably thought it was physically impossible that anyone would abuse such an asinine policy.

The lawsuit also noted other alleged instances where the girl was put in similar situations by male classmates at the school.

Prior to the bathroom assault, one of her classmates allegedly touched her genitals over her clothing without her consent during a class, with an educator in the room, the lawsuit said.

During another incident, the girl slapped a student after he attempted to kiss the young girl without her consent, the lawsuit said.

So it seems as if the school has either been naive to the environment they allow at their school, or they have turned a blind eye. Either way, that is totally abhorrent and many people need to be held accountable for it.

This is Portland. Where people think silence is violence. Yet, the “adults” kept silent and that led to more violence. Ironic how that works out.

This is also the same place where not using the “preferred pronoun” would likely result in expulsion. I think we all know how much more they would have cared about this situation had someone been “misgendered.”

It does not matter the age of the boys responsible. They committed an evil act and it’s baffling they did something like that so young. They need to be held accountable for these actions.

They did this in public. Who knows what else these kids are capable of?

It is incomprehensible how the school did not pick up the phone and call law enforcement that very second.

It is very safe to assume these school officials belong to the side that claims to “believe all women.” But it appears that does not include the most vulnerable members of our society. This is incredibly sick.
