4 Teens Committed Sexual Assault At Hoboken High School: Report

Four teens have been charged this week with committing sexual assault at Hoboken High School after they were caught on video, according to authorities.

Amir Goodwin, 18, (pictured) was charged with aggravated sexual assault after a 17-year-old female student reported being sexually assaulted at the high school on Nov. 30, according to authorities.

The incident was captured on the school’s surveillance video, showing the victim being pushed into the room, and was also recorded on Goodwin’s cell phone, according to authorities.

In addition to Goodwin, two 16-year-old students and one 17-year-old student were arrested and charged on November 30 in connection with the sexual assault.

All three juveniles were released with conditions. The juveniles’ cases are pending in Family Court. Due to confidentiality in juvenile delinquency matters, no additional information can be released.

“There will be a thorough investigation of this case which is deeply disturbing on so many levels; the ages of all the alleged individuals involved, the acts alleged, and the brazenness of where they took place. Children in school need to feel safe and parents need to feel confident of their safety,” said Hudson County Esther Prosecutor Suarez. “We will continue to investigate and will certainly prosecute this case to the fullest extent of the law.”
