Summary
A former Mead High School student is speaking out about a horrific hazing attack at a football camp in June 2023, where he was allegedly pinned down and assaulted with a massage gun by teammates—something he believes was racially motivated. Now a junior in college, he’s part of a lawsuit seeking $20–50 million against the school district, which a judge has already found liable. His attorney says the district failed to act, and the jury now decides on damages. The victim, once a smiling kid, now struggles with trust and has moved to Texas, where he’s excelling—but still carries the emotional scars. Another sophomore, white and defending his Black teammates, was also assaulted. The former principal called the football program’s culture “unhealthy,” and the video of the attack circulated in the community for months before any action was taken.
