they ve been forced to move out of their small town because the community attacked them. here s their story. reporter: it was supposed to be the beginning of a new life. melinda coleman and her kids moved to a small town in missouri after a tragic car accident killed melinda s husband and the children s father. but the nightmare began early on january 8, 2012. 14 year old daisy coleman was hosting a sleep over. she had been texting with a football player, a senior who was 17. soon after, the teen girls snuck out of daisy s home to meet up with the football player and his friends. it happened in his parents basement. according to investigators documents, daisy had a lot more to drink that night, thanks to the football player. according to the documents, daisy had a big glass of clear stuff. that s the last daisy coleman remembers about that night.
you say you start to believe it yourself. that football player is currently enrolled in college, as far as we know and continuing with his life. and i know that your life has obviously had a lot of hurdles since then. what would you say to him if you saw him? i would say that i never wanted to see him again. that he can go live his life. and i never wanted to see him again. melinda. my concern was that some other girls came forward and told me that the same thing had happened to them with this same group of boys. when i had talked to the sheriff initially he said that there had been girls that had come forward and that there had been maybe even ten other girls that were also assaulted. so later on, he said that they were all liars. i digitally recorded him saying
