Jackson's son waited two years to tell her that he had been assaulted at a basketball camp in 2010 by several teammates, as a freshman at Capital High School in Olympia, Wash. “I felt like if I told someone,” he testified, “then I would have been, you know, excluded from the team and not able to play varsity basketball.” He finally spoke up after more boys were jumped at a similar camp, leading the district to investigate the school.
