MOM SUES OVER GIRL’S SEX ORDEAL AT SCHOOL

A Brooklyn mother is filing a $1.25 million negligence suit against the Board of Education after her 13 year old daughter said she was sexually assaulted in March in her junior high school, IS 228 in Bensonhurst.  The alleged sex abuse happened on March 6 at about 11:45 a.m. in the schoolyard.  According to the girl, the attacker, a 13 year old special-education student with a violent history, knocked her down, pulled her arm behind her and fondled her buttocks and breasts while an assistant principal and other employees stood nearby.  She said he continued the attack in a stairwell inside the school and claimed another boy held her down as the abuser grabbed her and attempted to squeeze her between the legs.  He said, I'm going to make your butt fatter.  I'm going to f--- you when you least expect it, the victim said.  The girl said she filled out an incident report shortly thereafter.
