Adaleia Cross prompts viral conversations with new claims in SCOTUS trans athlete sexual harassment scandal
Fox News • • nation
Key Points:
- West Virginia teen Adaleia Cross gained attention as a figure in the "Save Women's Sports" movement after alleging that a trans athlete sexually harassed her in the girls' locker room during middle school.
- Cross reported mistreatment from peers and teachers at her school due to her activism, including a homeroom teacher telling her she was "less of a person," and losing long-term friendships.
- The ACLU denied the harassment allegations and stated the school district's investigation found them unsubstantiated, while Cross's attorneys at Alliance Defending Freedom maintain she has sworn under oath to the events and suffered significant personal impact.
- The Cross family says the school did not take disciplinary action or communicate investigation results after the report, and requests for documentation and clarification from the school and ACLU have gone unanswered.
- Despite support from most of her high school community, Cross faces vocal opposition and threats from a minority; she will not return to sports after a two-year hiatus, even though the trans athlete will no longer compete in girls' sports following a Supreme Court ruling affirming eligibility based on biological sex.
