Together with Madison Clements this Trio harassed taylor for over a year, keeping other students from befriending her,{{#if:Red1|<ref name="Red1">{{#if:{{#if:||{{#ifeq:{{#sub:|0|1}}|#|{{#sub:|1}}|}}}}|{{#if:| - }}{{#ifeq:{{#if:||{{#ifeq:{{#sub:|0|1}}|#|yes|no}}}}|yes|{{#dpl:debug=0|allowcachedresults=true|uses=Template:Infobox chapter|title={{#if:||{{#ifeq:{{#sub:|0|1}}|#|{{#sub:|1}}|}}}}|skipthispage=no|include={Infobox chapter}:link|includetrim=|format=,[, Excerpt] ,}}from }}[[{{#if:||{{#ifeq:{{#sub:|0|1}}|#|{{#sub:|1}}|}}}}]]|{{#if:{{#if:|}}|{{#if:| - }}[{{#if:|}} ]}}}}</ref>|<ref>{{#if:{{#if:||{{#ifeq:{{#sub:|0|1}}|#|{{#sub:|1}}|}}}}|{{#if:| - }}{{#ifeq:{{#if:||{{#ifeq:{{#sub:|0|1}}|#|yes|no}}}}|yes|{{#dpl:debug=0|allowcachedresults=true|uses=Template:Infobox chapter|title={{#if:||{{#ifeq:{{#sub:|0|1}}|#|{{#sub:|1}}|}}}}|skipthispage=no|include={Infobox chapter}:link|includetrim=|format=,[, Excerpt] ,}}from }}[[{{#if:||{{#ifeq:{{#sub:|0|1}}|#|{{#sub:|1}}|}}}}]]|{{#if:{{#if:|}}|{{#if:| - }}[{{#if:|}} ]}}}}</ref>}} until finally they decided to escalate further.
