A Puyallup teenager says she considered suicide after she was beaten by classmates at school.
The alleged attack took place last Friday in a bathroom stall at Glacier View Junior High School in Puyallup.Both he and his daughter believe the attack was racially motivated.
“I just feel someone pull me up from my hair,” remembered Kailinh Wiley, “and start swinging for my face.” “Parent’s worst nightmare.” That is how Steven Wiley describes his reaction to what happened to his 14-year-old daughter. She faced similar threats last year. He complained to the school in advance and thwarted it. But this year, he advised her to defend herself.“So now, the girl leans over,” he says, narrating the video, “has to actually bend way down to grab her by her hair, yank her up and then pull her up and everything happened. And they all walked out the door. Teacher came.
