'I would ask this: for people to be patient because as we know what sometimes is reported initially is not then what the end result of all the facts are,' Biberaj said to Fox 5. 'We believed based on the facts that he had no history of having done this prior to this offense that was alleged,' said Biberaj. He is now in a juvenile detention center.īiberaj defended the decision to move the student to a different school stressing the choice was made based on the information at the time and the view that it was unlikely the teen would re-offend. The teen was fitted with an ankle monitor and also transferred to another school in where he was later accused of sexual assault against another female student in October. The 15-year-old student was charged in the case with two counts of forcible sodomy and later arrested. Smith was given a suspended sentenced of 10 days in jail, contingent on a year of good behavior. 'The idea that this is a person who we need to put in a cage was astounding to me given the social justice reform she was pushing. 'The idea that they would actually be seeking jail time, I'd guess in my 15 years the number of times I've seen that happen would be zero,' Elizabeth Lancaster said. He said he was trying to contain himself after listening to school board staff say they'd never had a report of a sexual assault in a bathroom, when that is what his daughter reported weeks earlier Smith was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.
