The daughter had two prior consensual encounters with the girl and the boy was indeed wearing a skirt but that did not entitle him with access to the girls bathroom. This had nothing to do with the schools bathroom policy in any event as it was approved in August well after the assault.
Those protestors owe the school board members an apology.

But this week, during a juvenile court hearing, a fuller picture of Smith’s daughter’s ordeal emerged. She suffered something atrocious. It had nothing at all to do, however, with trans bathroom policies. Instead, like many women and girls, she was a victim of relationship violence.
Smith’s daughter testified that she’d previously had two consensual sexual encounters with her attacker in the school bathroom. On the day of her assault, they’d agreed to meet up again. “The evidence was that the girl chose that bathroom, but her intent was to talk to him, not to engage in sexual relations,” Biberaj, whose office prosecuted the case, told me. The boy, however, expected sex and refused to accept the girl’s refusal. As the The Washington Post reported, she testified, “He flipped me over. I was on the ground and couldn’t move and he sexually assaulted me.”
The boy was indeed wearing a skirt, but that skirt didn’t authorize him to use the girls’ bathroom. As Amanda Terkel reported in HuffPost, the school district’s trans-inclusive bathroom policies were approved only in August, more than two months after the assault. This was not, said Biberaj, someone “identifying as transgender and going into the girls’ bathroom under the guise of that.”

Michelle Goldberg, the New York Times's hypocritical rape apologist
Are we just going to ignore that the school board, which admits now there have been additional sexual assault cases it covered up, lied about the girl’s assault during a hearing on a proposed transgender policy? Are we going to pretend the rape and the subsequent misconduct by school officials isn’t relevant to the policy they debated at the time?
Goldberg’s article, loosely paraphrased, argues: "Yes, the boy raped one girl in a bathroom and reportedly sexually assaulted another girl, and school administrators covered it up and lied about it during a hearing on transgender policies, but the first case, the one with the forcible sodomy, isn't as bad as conservatives say it is. You see, the victim said yes previously…”
By this standard, there is no such thing as marital rape. And most of those campus rape cases? Turns out they are automatically not so bad. Many of those accusers consented at some point in the past. Surely, they don't teach us any broader lessons!
Okay, these rapes didn't happen due to the school districts bathroom policy, rape still took place and the school district tried to cover it up.
And then Michelle Goldberg NYT journalist tried to down play it because the victim has said yes previously ? Wow. It seems like women's rights are actually regressing.
