A young girl in Atlantic Canada is speaking out along with her parents about cyberbullying and an alleged sexual assault, urging others in similar situations to do the same.

CTV News is not identifying the 15-year-old girl because she says she is a victim of sexual assault at the hands of a woman 10 years older than her.

“I didn't know what she was doing to me ‘cause I was like in shock, I was like frozed,” the girl said.

“She asked me out, and I said, ‘I don't want to date you ‘cause I'm not a lesbian,’ and she didn't take that for an answer,” the girl said.

“So like then she grabbed my waist and then she was kissing me and like sticking her tongue down my throat and then she was choking me. And then she grabbed my butt.”

It took a couple of weeks before the girl told her parents, who immediately reported the alleged assault to police.

The family says that’s when things got worse.

“I was getting text messages from girls at school saying ‘when you come to school on Tuesday I'm going to beat you up’,” the girl said.

Several fake Instagram accounts appeared using the girl’s name and picture, which was photoshopped onto an adult woman’s body

The fake user posted hardcore pornography pretending to be the young girl.

“These guys were texting me and saying, 'Will you send me some nudes?'” she said.

“I kind of feel sick. I just don't want it to happen to me,” she said.

RCMP confirm they are investigating, but won’t comment further on the case.

So far, no charges have been laid, though both the young girl and her family say they’d like to see some.

None of the allegations have been proven in court.

The girl’s father says the situation has been difficult for the family.

“It's hard to even talk about,” he said.

“They're ruining her image. What's on the computer, stays on the computer,” he said.

He says the family would like to see more resources for fighting cyber crime.

“The cyberbullying line that we called, we started calling last Friday afternoon, we never got a return call until Tuesday because they're only open 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday,” he said.

“That should be a 24-hour hotline.”

He said his family also has a message for other kids who may be going through similar situations: Come forward and get help.

His daughter, however, has a simpler wish.

“I just want people to know it's not me doing this. I'm not that type of person,” she said.
