Deaf High School Student Severely Beaten At Sleepover

Millsap ISD and the Parker County Sheriff’s Office are investigating an alleged bullying case that left a student with multiple injuries.

Trent Irwin, who is a senior at Milsap High school says he was severely beaten while attending a sleepover on September 25.
Irwin believes he was beaten because he was deaf.

The teens parents have spent nearly two weeks demanding justice.
Trent’s father, Jeremy Irwin, says that while Trent was asleep, other teens decided to mess with him.

Videos of the attack were seen circulating on social media and were very disturbing.
Jeremy says one video showed his son lying down asleep when other teens begin slapping in his face and head.

He tried to defend himself but became defenseless when one of the teens began punching him.
Jeremey was beat to the point where his eye is swollen, his nose has been lodged to the side and his lip was busted.

On October 7, Parker County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of a 17 year old boy.

Now, the family’s attorneys are doing their own investigation and may take action in civil court. They’re questioning whether the adults involved, ranging from parents to the homeowner to school district leaders, should be held accountable.
