Orchard Lake school responds to lawsuit outlining series of sexual assault allegations
WEST BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich. โ A lawsuit filed by a father and son alleges that students at one Metro Detroit high school attacked and forced the son to participate in sexualized games during a retreat in 2019. The father, a longtime teacher at St. Maryโs Preparatory High School in Orchard Lake, and his son, a student, filed a lawsuit outlining a series of sexualized games allegedly played by the schoolโs student athletes. The lawsuit claims that when the son chose not participate in the games, the other students attacked him. And theyโre left alone to do that,โ said Bob Palmer, attorney for the father and son in the case against St. Maryโs officials. โItโs kind of ironic that the individual who was assaulted is the son of the teacher -- theyโre both there,โ Palmer said.
