Harris County -- A Houston-area family is suing T.G.I. Friday’s after their 17-year-old daughter was raped by an employee at a restaurant in Webster.
It happened on May 20, 2011 at the T.G.I. Friday’s located in the 19400 block of the Gulf, according to court documents.
The lawsuit claims a then 17-year-old high school senior was raped at the T.G.I. Friday’s at an after-hours work party held by the general manager and other employees. The suit alleges the staffers had previously been partying at a topless bar and had gone to the restaurant to continue drinking after 2 a.m.
Attorneys representing the teen said she went to the restaurant to use a phone so she could call her mom or a friend for a ride.

Not making excuses here, except for common sense.
I get your point. My 17 yo young people were always, ALWAYS home well before 2.
Likely:
Nothing more than an attempt to get to TGI Friday’s corporate assets.
If this happened at Joes Tavern, there would be no charges, because there’s no money.
the employee was a sexual offender already, hired by TGIF...I hope she makes a million....
Article says she went there to use the phone to get a ride, nothing more. So perhaps her only mistake was being out late at night. She didn’t drink or party.
I'm sorry, but you don't just lure a girl into a men's restroom, with what? Candy? Girls know what a men's restroom is, and they don't go there, not with a man anyway. And why is it these overly concerned parents didn't know where their minor daughter was at 2 a.m.? This is total BS. Like the other poster said, if this was Joe's Burgers, it wouldn't even be news.
Lots of questions remain unanswered on this one.
so he lured her in with pot, coke or booze. Doesn’t excuse a rape.
Exactly! Nothing good happens after midnight out on the streets. Parents, your kids should all be home no later than that, no matter what.
Why is perp still breathing?
Houston absorbed a lot of Katrina ex-patriates. Lots of Holders People from New Orleans decided to stay and wreck havoc on Houston rather than go back to their home of chocolate people, as their former Mayor called them.
> Why is perp still breathing?
So that he can receive sympathy from libs.
