Teenage daughter's tormentors allegedly placed disfigured sex doll in family's driveway, claims the girl's mother.
In Phelps, New York, a mother named Tanya Larsen is seeking action against the bullies who have tormented her 16-year-old daughter for years, most recently leaving sex toys and a grotesque, dismembered sex doll on the family's driveway.
The incident, which occurred recently, has been reported to the Ontario County Sheriff's office, with Sheriff David Cirencione leading the investigation. However, due to the juvenile nature of the alleged bullies, holding them responsible has proven challenging.
The bullying has been a persistent issue at Midlakes schools, causing severe mental health challenges for Tanya Larsen's daughter, leading to her homeschooling. The school district's superintendent has denounced the behavior, stating that there's not much the district can do for actions that occur away from the school campus.
The sex doll, adorned with cut-off breasts and a head, was accompanied by a giant sex toy. Verbal assaults, including racial slurs, were hurled from the roadway for hours.
The bullying resumed last week following an argument on social media. Tanya Larsen immediately filed a police report after the incident, hoping to put a stop to the harassment.
Sheriff Cirencione's office is actively trying to locate the alleged bullies for engagement with them and their families. Tanya Larsen believes that the bullies need to reflect on the damage they've caused to her family.
In New York State, juvenile bullying incidents are primarily handled through school disciplinary measures, which increasingly emphasize restorative justice approaches. However, the effectiveness of these methods has been debated, and traditional punitive actions remain limited, particularly in New York City public schools.
If the incident is part of sustained harassment or abuse, child welfare authorities may investigate for neglect or abuse concerns, which can significantly affect families. If the act violates harassment laws, victims may file complaints with state agencies, possibly resulting in legal remedies, penalties, or corrective measures.
If an 18-year-old is driving the juveniles, the consequences for them may be different, according to Cirencione. In this case, the 18-year-old could potentially face charges, although the specifics of the incident are still under investigation.
Tanya Larsen hopes that this incident will serve as a wake-up call for the school district and law enforcement to take a stronger stance against bullying, particularly in cases where the harassment extends beyond the school campus. She fears what the bullies might do in the future and hopes they will take responsibility for their actions.
