The mother of an 11-year-old girl arrested for a vicious, caught-on-camera beating in a Florida middle school claims her daughter is the victim — saying she snapped because she was “tired of being harassed and bullied. ” The mom, not publicly named to protect her daughter’s identity, said she was furious that the shocking attack in the cafeteria at Nautilus Middle School in Miami Beach late last month has left her daughter facing felony assault charges. “My daughter at 11 years old has to go through this and see herself in the news,” the mother told WPLG through tears of the now-viral footage of the attack.
