Several news outlets have reported in recent days that the Dallas Police Department is investigating the possible sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl at the Occupy Dallas camp near City Hall. The original report, from KTVT-Channel 11, cited an anonymous source within the police department who said that a 14-year-old girl had been staying at the camp. She initially told officers that she had sex with a man in his early 20s and, per the CBS11 report, "engaged in sexual activity with several other people." According to the report, she is now refusing to cooperate with investigators. The news has since been picked up by both the Occupy Wall Street homepage and a host of conservative news blogs, including Glenn Beck outfit The Blaze and Breitbart TV. As of this morning, city spokesperson Frank Librio would only say: "Police are investigating." But the City Attorney's Office, which has an agreement with Occupy Dallas allowing them to set up camp behind Dallas City Hall, is watching to make sure they don't violate that deal.
