New developments have emerged in a disturbing sex trafficking case involving Kedria Grigsby, a former cosmetology teacher at Klein Cain High School, and her son, Roger Magee.
Attorneys representing an alleged victim, identified as “Jane Doe,” have filed a federal lawsuit against the Klein Independent School District (Klein ISD), accusing the district of failing to protect its students from exploitation.
The lawsuit alleges that Jane Doe, a former student, was recruited and trafficked by Grigsby and Magee, who allegedly lured her and other victims—aged 15 to 17—to local motels under false pretenses of providing shelter.
According to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, the victims were reported as runaways at the time of their exploitation.
Civil rights attorney Bakari Sellers, who is representing Jane Doe, revealed harrowing details of the case during a press conference outside Klein ISD headquarters. He stated that Jane Doe was forced to engage with multiple men each night, generating up to $1,000 daily for Grigsby and Magee.
Investigators have reportedly uncovered text messages and financial transactions on Jane Doe’s confiscated phone, linking her to over 100 men. Shockingly, none of these men have been charged in connection with the case.
Sellers criticized Klein ISD for allegedly ignoring warning signs of Grigsby’s predatory behavior. He cited instances where Jane Doe sought help from school staff but received inadequate support. In one particularly troubling incident, a teacher reported Jane Doe’s bruises to administrators, but instead of receiving assistance, the student was withdrawn from school.
“This is a systemic failure,” Sellers said. “The school district had a duty to protect its students, and they failed miserably.”
The lawsuit seeks to hold Klein ISD accountable for its alleged negligence and to secure justice for Jane Doe and other potential victims. Sellers believes there may be additional victims and is urging them to come forward. “We’re looking for all of these young ladies that were suffering in silence,” he stated.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office’s investigation into the case remains ongoing. Meanwhile, the lawsuit has sparked broader conversations about the responsibility of school districts to safeguard students from exploitation and abuse.
As the legal battle unfolds, advocates hope the case will lead to stronger protections for vulnerable students and accountability for those who fail to act in the face of wrongdoing.
