Fetus found in GW bathroom

  • PDF

THE Guam Police Department has confirmed the discovery of a fetus at a girls’ bathroom at George Washington High School.

School officials reported the discovery to GPD officers, who removed the fetus from the campus.

GPD spokesman Officer A.J. Balajadia said Criminal Investigations Division detectives are actively looking for the mother who reportedly had a miscarriage in the restroom.

According to officials, the fetus appears to be within the first trimester of life.

Balajadia further stated the incident is not a reportable crime. However, detectives are concerned about the health and well-being of the minor.

“The case is classified as an ‘Injured Person’ report,” he said.

The Variety spoke to Guam Department of Education Deputy Superintendent Robert Malay who said they are also looking into the matter and that school officials are continuing their due diligence, trying to find out who was involved and how they may be able to assist.

“Anybody who has any sort of information can go forward to the school administration officials who will give assistance as best as they can,” Malay said.

“We really want to be able to give whatever support we can provide,” he added.

My heartfelt condolences to this young mother. My hope is that she reaches out to friends and family she can trust to support her. She needs immediate medical and psychological attention. She might try the school nurse, if GW has one. Otherwise, GPD may be the best people to help.

I hoped to post a hotline phone number here but after calling them myself, they did not seem like people I would want to talk to if I were a teenager who just had a miscarriage and left the fetus in the high school bathroom because I was so afraid or ashamed or just didn't know what to do.

Maybe a service provider can post a better suggestion for this girl.
