Summary Of The Owen Labrie Case

The Owen Labrie Case
Police
When the young girl was assaulted on May 30, 2014, she did not come forward right away. She waited a while. This young woman then called her mother sobbing, so the mother went to the school immediately and figured the situation out. Not only were the police investigating the possible assault, but they were also looking at the ritual that these boys had planned for so many years (Shworm, 2015).

He was already considered to be an adult since he was nineteen years old. He wanted to fulfill what all of the other boys were doing, which was having sex with freshman girls before they graduated. Many boys and girls at St. Paul High School had secret keys to secret rooms on campus where they would have sex. I believe that the faculty and staff at the school should have been aware of what was happening if so many students had these keys. The young girl had told a school nurse when she had sex with Owen Labrie that it was consensual, but now she is claiming that she was raped and did not want to have sex (Shworm,
