There, he sexually assaulted both minors and issued death threats against them and their families to ensure silence.[1]
The lawsuit details how Brass checked out afterward, returning the key while the girls trailed behind in plain view. They displayed obvious distress, crying openly and showing signs of upset. Yet no intervention occurred from staff during this process.[1]
