Prince George's Student Bullied, Sexually Exploited At School, Parent Says: Report

UPPER MARLBORO, MD — A father says his middle school son was bullied in class and after they reported the bullying incident, the son was sexually exploited in retaliation.

The incident involves students at James Madison Middle School who currently are being taught at Forestville High School while their school undergoes renovations. The family told FOX5DC that after the bullying was reported, three students attacked the victim while he was using the bathroom. The father said his son was using the bathroom when one student kicked down the stall door, another poured water on his head and a third student recorded the incident then air dropped it to students and staff. According to FOX5DC, the student was so humiliated he has not returned to school.

The family also was frustrated that they were never notified by school officials about the incident. In an email sent to FOX 5, a Prince George's County Public Schools spokesperson said what took place was an isolated incident and due to privacy a letter was not sent home to parents.

"I would like for there to be much better communication with the school to us as concerning parents," the student's father told FOX5DC. "My son was sexually exploited. He was victimized. He was physically assaulted and unfortunately with this major event that took place, I absolutely received no notice from the school whatsoever. I actually had to reach out to the school and when I called the school about this event, and mind you this was a week later, the sixth grade administrator says he was shocked no one had called me."
