Raped 14-Year-Old Teen in Texas Beaten by Family Members Until She Miscarried

A 14-year-old Texas teen who had gotten pregnant via rape had a forced abortion after she was beaten by family members until she miscarried.

Dallas Police have arrested the people who were involved in the beating of the pregnant teen. The teen's four family members—identified as Sharon Jones, Cedric Jones, Cecilia McDonald, and Lonnell McDonald—including a Robert Cayald, a relative who allegedly molested her, were all placed behind bars.

The girl who is now 16 years old recently came forward with the allegations.

"We want to commend the victim for her bravery in coming forth to report this unbelievable crime," said Dallas Deputy Police Chief Gil Garza, according to CBS News.

The victim was sexually assaulted between January and March of 2013 and when the arrested family members discovered the pregnancy, they made many attempts to force a miscarriage.

The girl was given birth control pills, Plan B pills and cinnamon tablets, but when the pills failed, they all beat the victim until she gave birth to her stillborn child.

"(The) family members decided to take matters into their own hands in order to terminate the pregnancy. The family members physically assaulted the victim to the point where the victim gave birth to a stillborn child," Garza said.

Garza added that all four were charged with "organized criminal activity" and first-degree felony, while Cayald was charged with aggravated sexual assault of a minor.

According to the story of the victim, two hours after she was physically assaulted by her family, she delivered the dead baby in a bathroom.

"She was uncontrollably pushing and delivered what she believed was a stillborn baby... Accomplice Cecila McDonald entered the bathroom and placed the baby in a white plastic mop bucket and removed it from the room," the arrest affidavit read, as per USA Today.

The girl passed out after the stillborn delivery and no medical assistance was given to her. She was only given iron pills when she woke up to supplement the amount of blood she lost.

According to the Daily Mail, they tried to cover up the crime by allegedly burning the baby's body on a charcoal grill.

"At some point after the assault, the baby was placed in a short, pill-shaped, black metal charcoal grill and attempted to burn it," the affidavit revealed.

Two days later, Sharon allegedly bribed Cedric with $25 to hide the rest of the remains. Authorities are still looking for the location of the dumped body. The victim is now under the care of Child Protective Services.
