The boy told his local TV station that he feels ‘assaulted and depressed’ after the alleged attack.
‘I was telling her to move, move. I feel like she shouldn’t do that to no child. I feel like she shouldn’t do that to me or others,’ the victim said.
She unzipped my pants.’ The victim has been checked out by doctors and told he has not contracted the HIV virus, but he said he is still fearful he might yet develop the illness.
Haggerty, who has a grown up daughter, was charged with aggravated assault with a child.
She is being held on jail on a bond of $30,000 and faces up to ten years behind bars if convicted.
