Complaint Investigation Report

Resident was sexually abused while in care. - UNSUBSTANTIATED

It was alleged that a client was sexually abused by another client who lives at the facility.

During the course of the investigation, it was learned that the clients who live at the facility are allowed to have consensual relationships and consensual sex, as long as they are cognitively able to give consent, it is their right. Neither client involved in the allegation is conserved.

Interviews were conducted with Client 1 (C1), Client 2 (C2) and staff. Based on information obtained, there is not a preponderance of evidence to show that a sexual assault occurred or that the sexual encounter between C1 and C2 was non consensual. Consensual sexual relationships are permitted in the facility as a personal right.

Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred, and the findings are UNSUBSTANTIATED.

An exit interview was conducted. A copy of the report was provided to administrator Micah Carey.
