Loudoun County:
The mother of the 15-year-old boy who dressed in a skirt and raped a female classmate in the girl’s bathroom and was then charged with sexually assaulting another girl months later says her son doesn’t identify as a female, and it wasn’t just some disguise to slip into the girl’s bathroom.
The mom of the boy also said ‘If I was in a position where I was about to be raped, I would be screaming, kicking, everything,’ she said. ‘You’re 15. You can reasonably defend yourself. You’re not just going to sit there and take it. And so, because there wasn’t a presence of a fight, he felt it was okay to keep going.’
