on 11/15/2024, when she witnessed R2 patting R1 above her right breast on the outside of her clothing.
V10 stated R2 then slipped his hand down the neckline of and underneath R1's shirt to her left breast. V10
stated she knew R2 could feel her presence because he stopped and left. V10 stated at first she thought
R2 was just checking on her, then she saw him slip his hand down her shirt. V10 stated R1 is nonverbal
