A 16 year-old Texas girl, who wants to be identified only as Jada, says she realized she was drugged and raped at a party after discovering images of her assault online.
In an interview with KHOU-TV, Jada explained she was served some punch by a teenage boy who hosted the party and Jada believes the drink was spiked. She reports passing out and having no memory of what happened. Other teens who attended the party posted evidence of the assault and began mocking her.
The teens have posted images of themselves lying on the ground in awkward positions with the hashtag “#jadapose.”
“I had no control,” said Jada. “I didn’t tell anyone to take my clothes off and do what they did to me.
“There’s no point in hiding,” she said. “Everybody has already seen my face and my body, but that’s not what I am and who I am.”
Jada is angry and so is her mother. “No one’s daughter deserved this,” said Jada’s mother. “No human being deserved this.”
No arrests have been made and the case is under investigation by Houston police.
