Teen boys sexually abused at drug treatment center in Wright County, state says

Three adolescent boys at a Wright County residential treatment center were sexually abused in multiple incidents by a female staff member, state investigators have concluded.

In early March, a new staff member at the Maple Lake Recovery Center engaged in a range of criminal sexual offenses involving three boys, ages 14 through 17. The offenses included pinching one child’s nipples, sitting on another boy’s lap, and asking the children to engage in inappropriate touching. The employee also boasted of past sexual encounters and exchanged personal contact information with the boys on Snapchat, a social messaging app, according to a recently released investigation by the state Department of Human Services (DHS).
