Daenerys
exhibited warning signs of ongoing sexual abuse. Instead of helping her by
determining how she was being abused and by whom; staff employed sexual abuse
in order to coerce her compliance. [1]
Daenerys,
a seven year old girl, took off her clothes in front of a male staff member. A female supervisor came into the room and Daenerys rubbed
her naked bottom on the supervisor's pant leg.
Staff
restrained Daenerys. Staff member Robert Duffy writes in his written report of
the incident, “Resident then started to rub her naked buttocks against R.
Brunier’s pants leg. She was then placed in a two person transport by R Brunier
and J. McDonald and removed to the separation room.” She was locked in the room
for an extended period of time. The Separation Room is in a common area of the
facility, and it has windows.
Supervisor
Reyna Brunier’s written account of the incident adds, “Supervisor and DCS did not
feel comfortable performing a containment on the resident while nude from the
waist down.”
Staff
considered two choices of punishment for Daenarys’ sexual abuse outcry; a
physical restraint during which she would probably would be pinned to the
ground or held by a staff member; or restrain her and drag her through a common
area of the facility in order to lock her in a room with windows in a common
area.
Daenerys
was put on display in a sexually compromised condition as punishment for the
staff’s perceived slight. Exhibiting Daenerys in such a sexually compromising
position is sexual abuse.
