PS.before you read this,i wont go into detail!
im LFA/autie not aspie but i have been sexually abused while living in an intellectual disability institution; we were in the lounge and there were a row of staff sat on the opposite sofas quite far away from me, they were looking at me as a guy i dont like came up and sat next to me,he started doing things and i had no idea what he was doing,with my autie super hearing i overheard the staff say 'just let him get away with it,she hasnt got a clue whats going on', that triggered in me that it must be something bad,so i emailed my sister, to ask what had just happened and she explained it was bad and reported it to the social services,i was non verbal and couldnt report it to anyone directly.
lots of us in there were autistic.
the guy who was abusing me wasnt even intellectually disabled,i remember overhearing the staff say 'm doesnt have learning disability to any degree but he has been released from the pysch ward and has no where else to go.
this guy was diagnosed with severe paranoid schizophrenia, he would come up to me and scream in my face 'im gonna f-king kill you' over and over and some times he would be holding a pint glass or something else heavy over my head,i lived in fear there, all because they let a guy who shouldnt have been there go in.
they knew he was a sexual abuser,i found this out it was on his risk assessment,loads of vulnerable non verbal girls,and he picked on me,the most manliest of them all.
my dad said when he was going home from visiting me,he sometimes saw 'm' get on the bus at the same stop and 'm' would sit next to a young girl and sit on top of her almost and start doing things-he had support staff at all times,but they were at the back all chatting on their phones aparently.
disgusting isnt it?
another time i was sexually abused in an intellectual disability secure hospital, a girl who had quite recently been admitted wanted to feel what it was like to be a lesbian [her own words],despite the fact i was on the highest support level there and had to have a support staff stand wherever i was,they were busy chatting to other staff somewhere else.
i complained to my family about the abuse as i am aware of sexual abuse now,the social services safeguarding team from that county got in contact with me after i left,but they only gave me a week to type down what happened and my feelings around it. a week,so the case got closed down.
