Daily Mail reported on a story of a Virginia man arrested for apparently standing up for his daughter and perhaps getting too worked up for the likes of the school board. Daily Wire reported on this and made it only for subscribers. The man was arrested back on June 22nd, but more details are coming out now based on the Daily Wire report.
Scott Smith was the man arrested, and he is a 48-year-old working-class plumber.
Smith was protesting the idea that kids at school can use the bathroom of their choice based on their gender identity. He says on May 28th, his daughter was sexually assaulted by a boy in the girls’ room. It’s being reported that he was dragged out by law enforcement before being able to talk about what happened to his daughter.
Daily Mail reports that Loudoun County school staff denied the assault on June 22nd, and Smith says they were lying. Smith says he’s not anti-gay and lesbian but he thinks the transgender rules are going too far. Smith says the school went out of its way to protect a sexual predator.
This is possibly because that story may have hurt the narrative the school was wanting to push. He thinks the new trans rules allow for people who aren’t even actually transitioning to get away with what he says happened to his daughter. From Daily Mail in part regarding the school response after the assault:
Once he got there, he says school staff told him they would handle it internally, choosing not to call the police for an as-yet unexplained reason.
He was enraged by the decision and challenged them on it. The school board then did call the police but to report Smith, not the boy, for making a scene.
‘I went nuts. I called the principal a p****. Six cop cars showed up like a f****** SWAT team,’ he said.
The school’s principal sent out an alert that day warning parents of what had happened involving Smith, but it said nothing of the sexual assault allegations in the bathroom.
It’s unclear exactly what happened next but Smith ended up at the hospital with his daughter.
There, they told doctors what happened and a rape kit was performed.
‘Thank God that I drew enough attention to it, without getting arrested, that we got an escort to the hospital and they administered a rape kit that night,’ he said.
The rape kit verified his daughter’s claim so they took it to the police and a case was opened.
The teenager was arrested two months later – after the school board meeting – after an investigation by the sheriff’s office.

It’s good that this story is finally getting exposure. But it shouldn’t be so hard for things like this to see the light of day. We are on a slippery slope in our view. Some may argue people supporting traditional homosexuality is what led to the slippery slope, but that is for the reader to decide.
Loudoun County is a fast-growing suburb of Washington D.C. Some argue the reason Virginia is now a blue state, in part, is because of the D.C. suburbs. Loudoun is near Fairfax County and Prince William County, also very large counties ran by mostly leftists since the population explosion of the last couple of decades.
