Boy Raped in Juvenile CenterDescription: TAVARES — The 13-year-old boy never recovered emotionally after he repeatedly was sexually molested for more than a year.
Instead, he lashed out. First he stole a bike; another time, he took his parents’ car for a joyride, then fled from police when they tried to stop him.
The state took the troubled teen from his Eustis home in February and gave him a chance to get his life back together at a Brevard County youth detention center.
But on Thursday, state officials were forced to acknowledge in an emergency hearing that the boy had been raped twice at the center in mid-April.
Officials of the state Department of Juvenile Justice left the boy living with one of his accused attackers, who has continued to taunt him and threaten him during the past two weeks, an attorney for his parents said. The boy’s furious parents hired the lawyer to try to force the state to get their son away from the teen he says sodomized him.
