October-14: Rape victim was attacked at her High School
A teenage student at Union Grove High School was dragged into a locker room and raped on Thursday afternoon. Union Grove High School is located in McDonough, Georgia, an outer suburb of Atlanta.
The school security camera caught the interactions between the attacker and the victim in the hallway before the attack. The video showed her being dragged and carried into the locker room, where the attacker then raped her.
Due to the minor status of both the victim and the attacker, neither names have been released to the press. The attacker has been charged with sexual battery, false imprisonment, and enticing a child for indecent purposes. The sheriff also indicated that more charges may be coming as the investigation continues. He has been expelled from Union Grove High School indefinitely due to the incident.
The mother of the victim is now concerned with the safety of the students at Union Grove High School. The video coverage indicates the victim screaming and fighting off the attacker, with no one coming to her aid for the length of the struggle and following attack. The mother also indicated that it was not the first sexual assault that has occurred on Union Grove High School campus.
