Maya Hayes, a former staff member at Brookwood Youth Facility, faces serious allegations of sexual abuse, having allegedly exploited her position to manipulate and sexually assault at least five male residents, some as young as 15. Victims reported instances of grooming, where Hayes would offer privileges like phone time and hair products in exchange for sexual acts. One victim testified that she openly expressed her sexual desires and used intimidation tactics, threatening consequences to ensure compliance. Despite the severity of her actions, the culture among staff appeared dismissive, with some referring to her as 'Big Foot' while fully aware of the abuse.
One victim noted that Hayes confessed her reasons for going after young boys, stating that her sexual frustration at home led her to offer sexual acts.
Another victim accused Hayes of coercion, claiming she ordered him to fight other residents on her behalf, threatening repercussions for his Parole Board reviews.
Staff at the facility were aware of the abuse, yet they mocked victims, referring to Hayes as 'Big Foot,' highlighting a disturbing culture of complicity.
The claims detail a pattern of manipulation, with Hayes grooming her victims through privileges like food and phone access while sexually abusing them.
