‘Justice will be served’: Georgia teen left in intensive care after being tortured and humiliated in a brutal hazing incident speaks out for the first time – and cops have STILL to make any arrests
- Trent Lehrkamp, 19, broke his silence after he was brutally attacked by his ‘friends’ at a party off Georgia’s coast last month
- Lehrkamp was allegedly seen in a Snapchat photo with his ‘friends’ on March 21 unconsciously slumped over in a recliner while covered in spray paint
- He was taken to a hospital by his supposed attackers and was ‘unresponsive after drinking vodka and antidepressants’
A teenager left in the ICU covered in vomit and soaked in urine after he was humiliated in a brutal hazing incident spoke out for the first time to warn ‘justice will be served’ – as police still haven’t announced any arrests.
Trent Lehrkamp, 19, was allegedly attacked at a house party at Saint Simon’s Island off the coast of Georgia on March 21 by a group of his ‘wealthy friends’, according to a police report obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com.
A gruesome Snapchat photo of Lehrkamp and his four alleged torturers showed the victim sitting unconsciously slumped over in a recliner while covered in red spray paint and other unidentified items.
Lehrkamp broke his silence weeks after the attack that left him on a ventilator after his breathing dropped to a rate of just six breaths a minute from ‘drinking vodka and antidepressants.’ He was also allegedly forced to take mushrooms.
I’m alive and doing well and I’m recovering,’ Lehrkamp told WSAV. ‘Just know, it’s going to be a long time for me to get over this – through the trauma. But one day, hopefully within the next few months or so, I might be back. But justice will be served.’

Authorities were notified by staff at Southeast Georgia Health Center after Lehrkamp was dropped off at the ER by three of his alleged attackers, whom DailyMail.com is not naming as they are minors.
According to the police incident report, Trent’s father Mark, 44, told the responding officer that he had seen his son around 4:52pm on March 21 and that he was ‘perfectly fine’ when he went to his friend’s house on wealthy St Simon’s Island, Georgia.
The dad later received a phone call informing him that his son ‘might be at the hospital.’ He called the hospital straight away and was told that he needed to get there ‘immediately.’
The report reveals Trent’s younger sister also received a Snapchat at 8:39pm stating, ‘N**** Omg I know you’re sick of hearing it but like I wasn’t there but like Trent is f***ing dying apparently.’
When she asked where her brother was the messenger responded, ‘Take a guess [redacted’s] Motherf***ing [redacted]basement.’
At six breaths a minute, Trent’s breathing was so shallow he could not breathe independently. By the time his father saw him he had already been placed on a ventilator.
According to the report, Trent was soaked in urine. He had spray paint all over his body and hair and a small bruise on his left shoulder.
Horrifying pictures posted to, and now removed from, one of the alleged assailant’s Snapchats appear to show Trent slumped unconscious, covered in detritus, and tied to a chair.
Shockingly, Trent’s father went on to tell police, this was not an isolated incident but a repeated pattern of behavior.
He told the responding officer it was not the first time that his son had gone to this particular house, where he thought he was attending a Spring Break party and returned home hurt. He told officers, ‘He never returns home normal.’
Trent has since been taken off the ventilator and is receiving additional treatment out of state.
Lehrkamp said it might be a few months until he can get back on his feet but reassured justice would be served

The police report, exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com says that on March 17, Trent came home ‘covered in ‘WD-40, vomit, paint, glue, egg yolk and spray paint’
On Friday March 17, he revealed: ‘Trenton came home [from this address] covered in WD-40, vomit, paint, glue, egg yolk, and spray paint.’
In addition, the report reads, ‘Mark stated that Trenton seemed high or drunk and two weeks prior Mark had to take Trenton to the emergency room because he came home with a severe laceration above his left eye that required stitches.’
According to his father, Trent, who is not on the autism spectrum as has been reported, believes his alleged attackers to be his friends and that he goes over there because ‘he has no other friends.’
The police report states, ‘When Trenton is at [that] house, he is accepted and with people he thinks care for him. Mark also believes that since they are younger than Trenton, he might think they look up to him [and] would not fight or defend himself [because] they are minors and if he hurts them, he will get in serious trouble.’
Meanwhile in an email obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com, Glynn Academy High School, from which Trent is a recent graduate and where the alleged perpetrators are students, informed parents, ‘We are aware of the allegations of an off-campus incident that involved several of our former and current students.’
According to Georgia Department of Education law, the email states, students can be disciplined for conduct off-campus, ‘which could result in the student being criminally charged and which makes the student’s continued presence at the school a potential danger…or disrupts the educational process.’
