After a beating, followed by having her humiliation posted to social media and then vanishing for a few days, Massachusetts teen Aliyah Konton has been found.
But anger over what took place at Mashpee High School on Cape Cod has yet to subside. according to the U.K. Daily Mail.
“What are the consequences for the ones who in video dragged her by hair into school bathroom and hit her and made her lick the floor? May us parents get some answers?” local resident Selma Parker commented on the incident, per the U.K. outlet.
“The schools need to do a better job. They are all talk with this stuff and when it comes time to actually protect kids from bullies they turn the other way,” chimed in fellow local resident Matt Bollinder.

Konton, 15, was victimized on May 25 in an incident her parents never knew about until June 2, when she ran away from Mashpee, only to be found days later in nearby Barnstable, according to the New York Post.
Video of the incident shows a 13-year-old attacking Konton as students watch. The video then shows Konton in the school bathroom.
Konton is punched multiple times after being thrown by her hair into a bathroom stall.
They don’t know what to do. Most parents didn’t grow up with that. Mashpee is a town drowning deeply in a fentanyl problem. Many parents are addicts and abandon their kids. It’s a mess. Joe Biden administration is also largely responsible for not securing the border.
