Horrific hazing ritual ended his life, Hazing - An Outside the Lines Investigation

A horrific hazing ritual ended his life, and his family's
By Joshua Rhett Miller September 16, 2016
Jordan Preavy had it all as a junior in high school after making the football team. But that dream quickly became a nightmare for the 16-year-old when he was sodomized during a hazing ritual.

Witnesses told police Preavy's head "snapped back and he looked pained," yelling "No!" and "Get off," as he was assaulted through his clothes with a broomstick by at least two older teammates in 2011.

Nearly a year later, just weeks after his 17th birthday, Preavy killed himself....

Preavy's parents are convinced the incident at Milton High School in Vermont contributed to his decision to take his own life. They're now suing the school district, alleging it failed to protect their son.

"It's the only thing that makes sense. Having that sexual abuse in front of his team devastated him. Devastated," Preavy's mother, Tracy Stopford, told the network.

ESPN reports that the school district has denied culpability in a court response to the lawsuit, claiming the broom handle did not break Preavy's clothing.

"It is not likely that Preavy killed himself because on one occasion an object was pressed against his clothing in the buttocks," the district argued....

Five men ranging in age from 18 to 20 were ultimately charged in connection with incidents at homes and at Milton High School in 2011 and 2012. They have pleaded guilty to various charges, the Associated Press reports.

Preavy's story was one of three investigated by ESPN, which identified 40 hazing incidents at US schools involving sodomy since 2011, including seven this year. The network also detailed the hazing of former Oak Hills, Calif., football player Josh Villegas and former McGill University football player D'Arcy McKeown....

Hazing - An Outside the Lines Investigation

A troubling trend is plaguing school athletic programs across the country: hazing incidents involving sodomy. Outside the Lines has found more than 40 such incidents since 2011, including seven so far this year.

The majority of these type of incidents likely never get reported, experts say, and no state or federal agency tracks them. A code of silence often prevents witnesses and victims from speaking out -- though some do.

These are the stories of three victims....

In these three cases, school administrators often minimized the events or were ill-equipped to investigate what happened. The results were long-lasting and traumatic: "I'm always looking over my shoulder," Josh Villegas says. "I'm always on edge."....

"It's become much more violent, sexually, since the internet," says psychologist Susan Lipkins, who focuses her work on hazing. She believes that kids have become desensitized to sexuality and see this form of hazing as a way to humiliate others. "And I think with each year it gets worse and worse." ....

What has to change? Lipkins says there needs to be greater awareness and accountability, so that victims feel more comfortable coming forward and going to the courts. "If we can't break the code of silence, we're not going to change things."....

Victims of sexual abuse find comfort at conference 18th annual sexual and ritual abuse conference was held Sunday  WINDSOR LOCKS, Connecticut (WWLP)

18th Annual Sexual and Ritual abuse conference was held Sunday. Severe sexual abuse and torture victims from all over the world gathered in Windsor Locks, Connecticut, to learn how to deal with their trauma. Survivor and organizer Neil Brick  told 22News, "This is a conference to educate people."

The conference is a safe haven for victims. "It validates their experience and unifies survivors," said Brick. He went on to tell  "A lot of people suffer child abuse, that's unfortunate that people do. So people can talk to others and realize they're not alone. They can learn about resources on the internet and books that can help them." http://wwlp.com/2016/08/14/victims-of-sexual-abuse-find-comfort-at-conference/
