9-Year-Old Boy Allegedly Sexually Assaulted A Toddler In Kids Quest Daycare Center

Police were summoned to the Kids Quest Daycare facility at the Mille Lacs Grand Casino in Minnesota. A 3-year-old boy was found battered & bruised in a play area within the center. The suspect in question is a 9-year-old boy. Sexual assault also occurred.

The Kids Quest Daycare facility is reacting with horror to the report that a 3-year-old little boy left in their care was somehow attacked and sexually assaulted - right under the noses of the persons left in charge. The child was discovered in a play area and showed visible signs of a physical attack.

"He had bruises on his arm that showed that he was either pulled or held down. He had finger marks on his neck and by his face, like fingernail marks and bruising," said the victim's attorney Richard Ruhonen.

The victims attorney went on to indicate

"It's unconscionable that this could happen. If anybody is standing within a few feet of the playground, within 30 feet, they should be able to hear a kid being assaulted,"

The 3 year old was taken to a doctor following the incident, and upon examination it was revealed that not only had he been physically assaulted, he had also been sexually assaulted. The suspect is a 9 year old boy, also left at the Kids Quest facility. Surveillance video is being reviewed, and it has been reported that the tape contains visual evidence of the attack.

"A 9-year-old child was the perpetrator," said Mille Lacs Band Of Ojibwe Solicitor General Rjay Brunkow.

New Horizon, which apparently runs the daycare center issued a statement that indicated they were "aggressively and proactively investigating it right now". This story just makes me sick to my stomach. First of all, what kind of a day care center, as the attorney stated, would not hear a 3 year old's cries for help as he was being physically and sexually attacked by another child? And what is even more horrifying: What 9-year-old would do such a thing? This is one very sick child that obviously has either been abused himself or is seriously mentally deranged. How would a 9 year old even have knowledge of sexual activity or know how to sexually abuse another child? Horrid, just horrid.
