How Could You? Hall of Shame- Julie McCormick

This will be an archive of heinous actions by those involved in child welfare, foster care and adoption. We forewarn you that these are deeply disturbing stories that may involve sex abuse, murder, kidnapping and other horrendous actions.

From Nampa, Idaho, juvenile justice 29-year-old head of security, Julie McCormick had groomed a 15-year-old boy and “had been sexually abused by a female security chief twice his age in a juvenile correctional center.”

“McCormick told a court in 2013 that she had sex with the minor three times, adding that she was ‘in love with him’. She was jailed for up to 20 years in 2014.

“In a victim impact statement at the time, [the mother] raged at McCormick: ‘I thought I was making the right decision to help my son, but I was wrong.”

“You brainwashed my son into thinking he would have a life with you.

‘You gave us trust, and then you demoralized him.’

Since the conviction, eight other teenage boys and girls have filed allegations of sexual victimization.

The mother’s words come as a survey reveals 10 per cent of juveniles in US correctional facilities claimed they were abused in 2013, Press TV reported.

More than 80 per cent of incidents involved members of staff, the nationa survey of juvenile inmates states.

And around 90 per cent of the respondents were males alleging abuse by female staff.”
