Call Child Protective Services today!! Get that child out of that home before her life is totally destroyed. (If it isn't already!!) Tell your daughter that this girl may get mad at her, but for the girls's sake, it is absolutely necessary that you take action.
Call the school counselor, and report the situation, as well.
What kind of parents would allow this to happen to their child? They should be hung!!!
Please don't make the mistake of not getting involved, regardless of you daughter's feelings about it. Your daughter will understand later. Just get this child help now, please!!!!

Contact the authorities (Child Protective Services) - you have no choice. The child is not only sexually abused but physically as well, going by the bruises. She needs help to get out of that situation, and as soon as possible. She obviously can't do it herself, and the fact that she has reached out to your daughter means she's ready to get help. Please think what would you want someone to do if it was your daughter being hurt, would you want them to stand back and say "It's all too hard"?
Take your daughter with you when you tell them, the first hand information is most important. Her family won't thank you, but she will, in time. Save her!

As a mother of a 13 yr old girl. YOU HAVE to call social services for at least an investigation not only on the brothers but also the parents. There is no way this is happening without the parents knowing something, and if they don't it's because of neglect. This child does not deserve to go through what she is going through, and it needs to be stopped immediately...

When you saw the bruises you should have talked with her parents about them. Now that you know about the molestation you have to call the police. It will not be an easy call or a comfortable conversation but, call the police right now for her sake.
If it was your daughter wouldn't you want someone to make that call as soon as they found out?

The police will always do a "well check" if you call them and tell them you are concerned somethings going on, and of course, call the Child Protective Services (CPS) through your City or County welfare department. If you are not sure who to call, call your daughters school Principal - they are bound by law to report ANY abuse to the proper authorities - believe me, someone WILL quickly pay a surprise visit to that house! WHERE ARE THIS GIRLS PARENTS??! AT NO TIME DO YOU HAVE TO IDENTIFY YOURSELF IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO - - PLEASE PLEASE CALL ASAP - - my prayers are with you all.

speaking from experience...
she spoke out finally because she trust your daughter, but deep down, she wants your daughter to tell anyone. You can guarentee that she has been threaten not to say a word to anyone.
you need to take your daughter with you to DSS and have her tell a case worker the same story she told you. You guys have to be her strength and her voice.
If it was your daughter, would you want someone to report it?

Stop the Abuse. she does not deserve it. No one does. if you had given any local info I would do it myself. Do Not let her be abused anymore.

You need to tell the police ASAP. Don't just sit there and let it happen ... even if it's late, call the police station right now and report it.
