A Texas mother tells The North Carolina Beat that her son was sexually assaulted at a Webster church daycare, and police are not doing anything about it.
Ciera Lowery said that two weeks before she discovered that her 3-year-old son Noah was allegedly sexually assaulted at his daycare, Little Peoples Greater Life in Webster, she observed a change in his behavior. She said her son started losing his appetite and didn’t want to eat, which was abnormal for him.
On Sunday, October 9, 2022, Lowery said Noah told her he didn’t want to go to school the following day. She said that was abnormal because her son has been attending daycare since he was one year old. Lowery said Noah, at the time, had been attending Little Peoples Greater Life for nearly a month.
Lowery said it was odd that her son didn’t want to go to daycare because he loved it. She said Noah started fake coughing and told her he was sick and didn’t want to go to daycare. Lowery said something wasn’t right about her son not wanting to attend daycare.
Lowery said she asked her son who take him to the bathroom. She said he was trying to tell her a name, but then he said “a man” repeatedly. Lowery said she called his teacher and asked her who takes her son to the restroom, and she said the teacher told her all three and four-year-olds to go to the bathroom alone.
During the conversation, Lowery said she told the teacher Noah had told her that a man had touched him. The teacher told Lowery that “no one touched” her son and that no men work at the daycare. Lowery said she repeated to the teacher what her son told her.
After Lowery hung up with the teacher, she called the League City Police and filed a report. Lowery said when the officers arrived, she told them what had happened and showed them the pictures she had taken. They told her she needed to take her son to the hospital asap because he appeared to have been sexually assaulted.
When Lowery arrives at the hospital with Noah, doctors check him out. She said Noah told her that the man was on his back. Lowery said her son had to undergo a series of tests.
Just shy of about a week after League City Police decided to close the case citing that he was constipated even though forensics, doctors, and his pediatrician all have agreed that he was sexually assaulted.
