Gang Rape Victim's Friend Blasts Officials

She had come alone to the Richmond High School homecoming dance, gorgeous in a sparkling purple dress and faux diamond baubles. The DJ played salsa, meringue, rap. When the teenager disappeared, her friends thought she had gone home early.

Kami Baker, a student at Richmond High School in Richmond, Calif., says she feels unsafe at school. At homecoming, which her friend attended before she was attacked, no officers checked on a dozen men outside the gym, Baker says



"We were going to go look for her," said Kami Baker, 16, a junior at the school.

"I busted up crying," Baker said.
