Hope Hicks was a 19-year-old cadet aboard a U.S.-flagged car carrier vessel in the Red Sea when she says a group of senior officers pressured her to take repeated shots of liquor and one of them followed her back to her cabin and raped her.
Hicks, who was training to be an engineer at the time of the 2019 incident, says she woke up to find blood on her sheets and bruises on her body.
The Coast Guard later charged a senior engineer with sexual assault. But all charges against him were dropped after he voluntarily surrendered his merchant mariner license last year.
