Bahamas Press is reporting that police are questioning the 15 year-old son of Senator Anthony ‘Tinny’ Musgrove concering an alleged sexual assault committed at the St. John’s College.
The website reports that the Senator’s son, along with another student, allegedly kidnapped a 12-year-old female student and took her against her will into the school’s auditorium and sexually assaulted the young girl.
Sources allegedly said the young girl was completely traumatized by the incident and was taken to the hospital immediately following the alleged assault for treatment.
Both suspects were taken to the Central Detective Unit of the Royal Bahamas Police Force and quizzed on the matter. A formal charge has yet to be announced. The Attorney General’s office will review the matter following investigations by the police and a decision will be made as to whether the boys will be arraigned.
This is the second son of a politician to have allegedly assaulted a young girl on a school campus recently. Son of former Minister of Education, Carl Bethel, allegedly sexually assaulted a 13-year old girl at Queen College on Village Road. School administrators quickly swept the matter under the carpet and the government did not prosecute the case.
