A woman is suing the Aaron Family Jewish Community Center of Dallas, alleging that her 14-year-old daughter was molested and raped repeatedly by a fitness center employee.

The mother, who is not named in the lawsuit, says she only knew that the man was harassing her daughter when she complained several times to the center’s staff.

She alleges that when she confronted CEO Artie Allen about the employee’s behavior and rumors that her daughter was dating the 24-year-old, Allen told her, “It takes two to tango.”

Allen, who is also being sued, along with the Jewish Community Center Association of North America, declined to comment.
