A medical report from the John F. Kennedy (JFK) Memorial Medical Center has found ‘no evidence of anal trauma’ in a 16-year-old boy, who alleged that three adult men sexually assaulted him over a two-day period.
The report, dated March 4, stated that an examination under anesthesia conducted on the teenager revealed an ‘intact rectal mucosa, normal anal sphincter tone, and no visible tears or evidence of anal trauma.’
According to the medical document, the teenager was taken to JFK Medical Center’s Emergency Trauma Unit after alleging that he had been forcibly sexually assaulted by three men at a location to which he was reportedly taken by a man he knows, and referred to as his ‘uncle.’
The boy told medical personnel that he had been asked to accompany the man to town to purchase goods in a black Jeep. However, he alleged that he was instead taken to a room where three other men were present.
He further claimed that the man abandoned him at the location, after which the three men allegedly kissed him, and forcibly had sex with him.
He claimed to have remained in the room for two days before the men dropped him along a sidewalk at approximately 10 p.m.
The teenager reportedly experienced weakness, an inability to walk, and watery stool following the alleged incident, prompting his admission to the hospital.
During the initial physical examination, doctors observed scattered skin lesions on both buttocks, and a small abrasion at the six o’clock position of the anus.
However, no visible anal lacerations, or bleeding were documented.
The report also listed scabies of the buttocks, and chronic constipation among the patient’s diagnoses.
Doctors subsequently conducted an examination under anesthesia after the teenager complained of passing bloody stool, and at times, watery stool through the rectum during his hospitalization.
Findings from the procedure indicated that the perianal region was “clean, and dry, the anal sphincter tone was normal, and the rectal mucosa was intact. No tears were observed, and no blood, or stool was found on the examining finger.”
The report, however, documents medical findings rather than a determination of whether the alleged sexual assault occurred. The absence of visible anal trauma does not, on its own, rule out sexual assault.
The teenager was treated with analgesics, antibiotics, stool softeners and vitamins. According to the report, he passed gas following the examination under anesthesia, and later passed formed stool after receiving stool softeners.
Doctors discharged him from the Department of Surgery on February 10, 2026, after determining that continued hospitalization was no longer medically necessary, according to the document.
Doctor Collins Bøwah, a specialist/general surgeon signed the report, and approved by Doctor Jan Wachekwa, Deputy Chief Medical Officer.
