Laredo, Texas - On Friday, Priscilla Villarreal Treviño, also known as La Gordiloca was taken into custody by Laredo Police Department officers after refusing to leave a Harmony Public Schools property. Villarreal Treviño accompanied Emiliano, 11, to his school to bring awareness that he has been a victim of continuous bullying at Harmony School, a charter school located at 4401 San Francisco Ave. in Laredo. His mother has found notes that indicate, Emiliano has been contemplating to commit suicide as a result of bullying. At Harmony, a 17-year-old female student has been encouraging a group of students to continue to bully Emiliano while at school and after school, according to Villarreal Treviño.

In a video posted by Villarreal Treviño in La Gordiloca News on Facebook shows the brother (dark shirt) of the 17-year-old girl fighting with Emiliano in a red shirt, an unidentified woman broke the fight up and the 17-year-old female student began to insult her. This girl (allegedly identified as I. M.) has been known to encourage other students to bully Emiliano and other kids at Harmony.

Villarreal Treviño also says that when she went viral on La Gordiloca News Facebook account about Emiliano's plight of constantly being bullied by other students, at least 14 other parents have contacted her to confirm that their kids have been also victims of being bullied by other students at Harmony and nothing has been done by the school administrators to address and stop the bullying in school or after school.

Villarreal Treviño and Emiliano were also accompanied by other parents to the school to protest.

Villarreal Treviño and other parents wanted the principal to come out and talk to them about her neglect to deal with the known bullying issue at Harmony, but she wouldn't talk to them without an appointment, according to a police officer at the scene.
