(Michigan City, IN) - A 21-year-old Michigan City woman is accused of allegedly having given a girl she knew from a school basketball team alcohol and marijuana following police investigation. The suspect in question, Denaya Hall, is also accused of trying to seduce the girl, found to be thirteen-years-old. 

 

According to court documents, police were contacted after Hall dropped the girl off outside her home during the early morning hours of March 22nd. The girl stumbled her way across the front yard and into the front door then fell backwards onto a sidewalk. A relative found her incoherent in her bedroom, leading her to be taken by ambulance to a hospital where marijuana was found in her system.

 

Text messages exchanged between Hall and the girl revealed she had given the teenager alcohol and marijuana on more than one occasion. Further texts also indicated there were attempts by Hall to seduce the girl.

 

Hall was an assistant manager for the boys’ basketball team at Krueger Middle School while the girl held a similar position on the squad, police said.

 

Hall has since been relieved of her duties.
