Sharon identified the culprits whom she claimed raped her daughter as W. K. F., B. J., A. R., D.C. and C. G. Sharon said two of the five suspects raped her daughter while the other three held her down so their friends could perform the sadistic act. The distraught mother said she only became aware of the situation when someone noticed that her daughter had a message on her Blackberry Messenger saying she wanted to go to sleep and never to wake up again. "When this person saw the message on my daughter's Blackberry they called me on Monday and told me they are concerned about my daughter and that I should make contact with her immediately." Sharon said she had a hard time getting the information from her daughter because she is not only devastated but now suicidal. She said when she found out what exactly happened she convinced her daughter to file an official complaint with the Gendarmerie even though a few days had passed since the incident took place.
Sharon a mother of five children said the suspects allegedly took some dance tickets from her 15 year old daughter and the older sister decided that she would go to them to either get back the tickets or collect the monies for the tickets her younger sister sold them. "When my oldest daughter S.S. reached the garage, the boys pushed her in the old house and violently raped her. My daughter was so ashamed and worried at the same time for me since I was traveling on a medical emergency the next morning that she hid the rape from me. The gendarmes took my daughter who was not sexually active to the Louis Constant Fleming Hospital on Monday and the doctors there found extreme damages. I now have to try and get back to St. Martin, I am expecting to get out of Guadeloupe sometime Wednesday so that I can offer my daughter support and further medical care."
Sharon has already contacted a lawyer who will be representing her daughter in the current investigation. The mother vowed to seek justice since the alleged suspects are friends of her daughters, one of whom she said is a constant visitor to her home. "One of the attackers would come to my house and sit and eat and he of all people violated my daughter whom he said he is his friend. I believe that these boys were after my younger daughter who sold them the dance tickets but when my oldest daughter showed up they raped her instead. I want to sound the alarm very early that I will get justice for my daughter one way or another, so while I know the Gendarmes are working on the case I want them to know that I will get justice for my child," Sharon said.
Sharon who is currently in Guadeloupe seeking urgent medical attention said the incident took place the night before she departed for Guadeloupe and her daughter who was violently invaded hid the incident from her knowing her medical condition.
Commandant of the Gendarmerie Stephen Brunet confirmed that the five suspects were arrested early Wednesday morning. Brunet said due to the nature of the investigation he was not in a position to divulge any information on the ongoing investigation. It is not yet known if all five of the suspects were placed in preliminary detention. However, relatives of the victim informed SMN News that the alleged suspects were taken to the Palais de Justice late Wednesday afternoon.
