Jessica Konen, one of about 30 people who spoke during an extended public comment period, told the board that school staff indoctrinated her child and usurped her parental authority.

Konen blasted the board and accused teachers and staff of coaching her gender dysphoric daughter through the Equality Club, an LGBTQ+ support group now called the You Be You (UBU) Club at Buena Vista Middle School.

"I stand here today in front of all of you because I am outraged. Is this really barely coming to light? Are you guys serious?" she said.

"How could you even allow this? How could you even have this meeting to question it? How dare you let these teachers come in and act as if they have done nothing wrong? A mistake? How long of a mistake?"

Konen went public with her story after controversy erupted over an audio recording leaked to "Irreversible Damage" author Abigail Shrier and The Epoch Times that revealed two teachers at a California Teachers Association (CTA) conference dismissing parents' concerns about homosexual and transgender indoctrination at school.
