High school girls beat lesbian classmate, record video on cellphone [video]
”I guess some say she’s pretty outspoken, and the other two girls didn’t like that. We were told by the two suspects it was over the sex-orientation issue that they don’t believe in…. We don’t know if there was any contact between them other than verbal. Something like this doesn’t come up all of a sudden. It was brewing.”
Chief Dan Miller of the Wayland Police describing the case of a planned attack by Wayland Union High Schooll freshman girls who allegedly beat a fellow classmate for her supportive views on gay rights. It is reported that one attacker has been expelled, another moved away, and no action has been taken yet against the student who recorded the incident. Criminal charges of aggravated assault are pending. (Wood 8 TV) (MLive.com)
