Mother Sues Starbucks, School District Over Alleged Sexual Assault of Disabled Daughter

Lawsuit alleges negligence in supervision and failure to provide security, leading to assault of intellectually disabled girl.

A lawsuit has been filed against Starbucks, Pittsburgh Public Schools and property management company 101 Kappa Drive Associates #1 by the mother of an intellectually disabled girl who was allegedly sexually assaulted after being led from school grounds by three male students.
The lawsuit alleges that school personnel at Taylor Allderdice High School failed to provide adequate supervision and care of the girl during school hours and during transportation to and from school.
The lawsuit also alleges that both the property management company and Starbucks managers were aware of the increasing crime issues near their businesses and failed to provide security or training for employees on how to respond to and report criminal activities.
The girl was allegedly led off campus by three male students, taken to a Starbucks bathroom where the students took turns entering the bathroom with her, and then taken to an empty building managed by Kappa, where the third boy sexually assaulted her.
The mother took the girl for a medical exam that she said showed positive signs of sexual assault. She reported the assault to police, but more than a year later police have not filed charges.
