Schoolgirl goes missing after bully makes her lick bathroom floor
2024-06-09
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Cape Cod girl, 15, vanished after cruel school bully was filmed slapping her, dragging her by hair and making her lick bathroom floor

  • Aliyah Konton, 15, disappeared days after the attack at Mashpee High School

A Massachusetts high school is in turmoil after a student went missing days after receiving a savage beating from another girl who made her lick the bathroom floor.

A gloating friend of the bully filmed the attack on Aliyah Konton at Mashpee High School before ensuring that the humiliating footage went viral on Snapchat.

The 15-year-old had only recently moved to the school in Cape Cod and was trying to 'fit in' according to a classmate.

A school resource officer alerted police after discovering the video on May 25, but parents were kept in the dark about the attack until Aliyah disappeared eight days later.

'The lack of communication and the complete lack of accountability and consequences of perpetrators in the school system are beyond disgraceful,' wrote a mother of three children at the school.

Eight days later an 'intense search using multiple local, state and federal resources' was underway after Aliyah disappeared from her Mashpee home, news of the attack was released, and parents reacted with fury to what they had just discovered.

A day later two boys visiting Planet Fitness in nearby Barnstable saw a girl they thought they recognized from police missing posters and told the manager. He rang police and the missing girl was finally rescued.

Mashpee police announced that a 13-year-old girl, who they did not identify, is now facing seven counts of assault and battery in Falmouth District Court's juvenile division.

Mashpee schools superintendent Patricia DeBoer refused to speak to reporters at a school committee meeting that evening.

#6  Been this way since 60s/70s. I defended myself against a smaller black kid and was immediately scooded by teacher to pick on someone my own size. Rules are rules - know your place.

So the school hid the assault from the parents to likely conceal the crime and protect it image.

Does anyone else see a stampeed of lawyers coming?

#2  I notice that the bully is younger and half the size of the bullied - is that a black/white thing?

#1  This is very sad. It is so tough being a teen. Now how much worse is it when socials give you instant unwanted fame.

The beating heals
It is the digital granite that is forever

I reckon all school kids should just be banned from all social media end of story

It really is the devil

Exhibit a: facebook

Post a pic of your happy birthday party. Everyone you didnt in ite is angry snd jealous
Post a pic of your successes. Everyone hates you. Post a pic of something unflattering. Everyone can use it against you forever even if you delete
AI scrapes it for facial recognition and cognitive profiling, files kept by security state

Nothing good about it!
