A few months ago a ten year old girl was in class and began to complain about a horrible stomach ache. The pain was so severe that teachers and school officials evacuated her to a nearby hospital, where doctors discovered that she was actually in the late stages of labor.
Upon being admitted to the emergency room, they discovered that she was seven months pregnant .According to the family, neither they nor the little girl had any idea that she was pregnant.
After the delivery the girl confided to her mother that her forty year old stepfather had sexually assaulted her. The girl’s mother then notified authorities who interviewed the child. She told police that her stepfather had threatened to kill the family if she told anyone about his abuse.The stepfather had not living with them at the time of the birth. He was arrested and soon confessed to raping the ten year old. They have charged him with rape of a child and possession of an illegal firearm.
“Horrible for a ten year old to go trough such abuse and to give a birth , since she should be playing with dolls , not suffering abuse of her body and mind by a stepfather . This guy should never leave jail.”
It is difficult to ascertain good statistics concerning child sexual abuse, because it is so frequently not reported, but according to research done by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services puts the number at about one in five girls and one in twenty boys.
What do you think should be done in this case !!
