Alleged Sexual Assaults Shake St. George's Independent School

In the past few weeks, St. George's Independent School in Memphis, Tennessee has been rocked by two separate sexual assault investigations. According to the reports, a male and female student were allegedly involved in an incident back in October, leading to the expulsion of multiple students. However, no charges have been filed so far.

Adding to the turmoil, another student came forward in September with a separate sexual assault complaint against the same student involved in the October incident. Olive Branch Police have arrested two individuals for evidence tampering in connection with the October case.

As the investigations continue, experts are urging the school and parents to provide counseling support for the affected students. Gwendolyn Turner, the community advocate coordinator for YWCA, says many students may be dealing with the "bystander effect," where they knew about the incidents but didn't know how to respond or ask for help.

The school's head, Luke Pruett, has returned to work after an independent review of the institution's policies and protocols. The community is now awaiting further updates from the police as they work to uncover the full details of these troubling allegations.
