A teenager from Loudoun County was sentenced Wednesday after he was found guilty in two sexual assaults at high schools.

LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA — The 15-year-old boy convicted of two sexual assaults at Loudoun County high schools in 2021 received his sentence Wednesday.

The Loudoun County teen was sentenced to complete a "locked residential program" according to a report from ABC7. He will also be under supervised probation until he turns 18, and he will have to enter Virginia's sex offender registry.

In November, the teen entered a no contest plea regarding an October assault in a classroom at Broad Run High School. The teen's no contest plea in the Broad Run assault case means he did not admit guilt, but he also did not dispute the facts presented in the case.

In a statement through their attorney, the victim's mother said they will file suit "so that no child, and no parent, will ever have to suffer what we have as a result of the misguided policies of our local government officials."

Attorneys claim administrators and officials within Loudoun County Public Schools failed to protect students by allowing the boy to transfer schools after the initial sexual assault was reported in May.
