Gang Rape Defendants Trial Begins

Many of you might remember the young lady that was raped outside of the high school in Richmond , California (RAPE). On October 27, 2009 as much  as many as 20 people were involved in or stood and watched the gang rape of a 15-year-old girl outside a California high school homecoming dance. 

Now this young girl has to relive that pain because the 7 defendants are standing trial and hopefully justice will prevail.

The first man arrested in last year's Richmond gang rape was the essence of belligerence, telling police that the 16-year-old victim wanted to have sex and threatening to kill the officers involved in his capture, a police officer testified Tuesday. This according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

Richmond high school officer, Gary Lewis testified,

"He said he was going to stab us all, going to kill us all," Lewis said. "He was resisting arrest from the moment I contacted him.

Police who arrived at the rape scene in a courtyard on the north side of the school found the victim, bleeding and vomiting, draped over a bench with her purple dress pulled up above her waist, two officers testified Monday.

One, Officer Gunnar Googins, testified that Ortega said of the victim, "'I just wanted to pimp her out." 

This is a sad testimony of the world today. It is a sign of the times. We have youth who don't have any value for themselves, much less for any other life. You often wonder where did these young men go wrong in their life?  Did they stop once to think suppose this was happening to their sister, mother? Just sad

20 gang raped this girl near my location, no one helped

I know by now many of you have read the story of the 15 year old that was gang raped outside the high school in Richmond California. I don't know if any of my readers have any religious affliations, but I do. If this is not a sign of the last days, I don't know what is. 

How have our children evolved so much that they can callously (not to mention even participate) in a rape of a young girl who just turned 15. Did these young boys not have sisters? mothers? aunts? grandmothers?

There were as many as 10 people who participated in the Oct. 24 attack on the girl in a dimly lit courtyard on campus. The school dance was going on in the high school. The victim was found naked and semi-conscious after the nearly two-hour assault.

Investigators believe as many as 20 people may have watched the rape without calling police. I have a friend who knows the family. Immediately there were members of that family who wanted swift justice, thankfully calmer heads prevailed. You can't fight violence with violence.

Today a 6th suspect was picked up and charged. Contra Costa County prosecutors According to a  1999 California law. it is illegal not to report a witnessed crime against a child, but the law applies only to children 14 and under.filed rape charges against five others, ranging in age from 15 to 21. Time for this and MANY other laws to be revised.
