A lady on the team was remaining pretty disrespectful and explained to me I am a Gentleman with a PENIS and that [guys] must not be on the staff," the cheerleader, Averie Chanel Medlock, wrote on Fb last 7 days. "I stood up for myself and she termed her mother and father simply because she was fearful for the reason that I [stood] up for myself. Her father mentioned ‘she however has testosterone and a penis and I will get rid of any person who comes immediately after my daughter.’"

The incident took location at Ranger School, the place police responded to a dispute between the members of the team, in accordance to Facebook posts from group customers. Medlock alleges that a teammate manufactured transphobic and racist remarks ahead of the altercation, with mobile cellular phone online video demonstrating other cheerleaders hiding in a room from an agitated Medlock.

The father of the girl whom Medlock allegedly choked was also referred to as to the scene by his daughter and he has started pushing for law enforcement to release physique digicam and CCTV footage of the incident.
