[quote]A gang of teen boys are accused of savagely raping an 11-year-old girl they lured from a California shopping mall and brutalized in the dank men's room of a nearby park, police said.
The oldest of the alleged attackers is Michael Sykes, 19, who was arrested Monday following a two-week manhunt. He is charged with rape, sodomy and assault of a minor.
Sykes is the oldest and last charged member of a group of seven other teens who police say are all members of a local street gang known as the South Side Mafia.
The March 10 rape may have been part of a perverse gang initiation rite, according to police who said the teens would be further prosecuted on gang-enhanced charges and could be charged as adults.
Police say the girl was lured to Victoriano Park in Moreno Valley, Calif., by an older girl, who she may have known and who may have been working for the gang. The older girl has also been charged for abetting the commission of rape.
The seven other gang members, aged 14 to 17, were arrested soon after the 11-year-old girl came forward to report the crime. Police say they did not initially make news of the crime public so as not to endanger the investigation.
On Monday, the Riverside County Sheriff announced they were looking for Sykes, believing he had fled to Los Angeles. He was arrested later that day.
Sykes and the other boys do not yet have attorneys, police said.
The police have not identified the girl or the accused minor assailants.
It is unknown whether the victim knew the young men, said Cpl. Courtney Donowho, spokeswoman for the Riverside County Sheriff.
Donowho said police do not believe the boys photographed the scene as has happened in other recent gang rape cases.
The incident follows several similar high-profile group sexual assaults.
In February, 13-year-old from Banning, Calif., reported being held down and assaulted by two boys also at a park.
Earlier this month the alleged rape of an 11-year-old girl from Cleveland, Texas by 18 men and boys ranging in age from 14 to 26, sparked national outrage.[/quote]
:doh: Zakkshock, staring the cold reality that mankind is filled with complete fucking lunatics, cannot summon a pithy rejoinder.

You do realize that she will be mentally, emotionally, and possibly physically scarred for the incident, and because of that, she might never truly fall in love or enjoy the future as much as she might have before. At that age, all humans are still developing their minds, and traumatic events of this caliber are anything short of life changing.
That being said, capital punishment is a bit much, and honestly I'd rather them get raped in prison for the rest of their lives for it, but initially this is an understandable reaction, albeit overzealous, at least they aren't shrugging it off like nothing happened.[/quote] someone give this guy a fucking medal.
This is fucking disgusting.
ew
too old
Gah, that's disgusting. Such a traumatic experience for the poor girl.
I hope they didn't do this to sound hardcore.
What the fuck is wrong with this world?
Gangs are often so romanticized in pop culture, whereas the reality is so, so far from a Lil Wayne song. Fuck these guys, and fuck their living conditions that proliferates the existence of gangs.

Their buttholes will be pinky rings within the first week.
Okay, in all seriousness...WHAT THE FUCK
Oh, and you can call me a douche for saying this, but do we need this constant influx of shock stories in ITN every day? I can't come here without seeing something about a mom beating up her baby, kids being raped, or pets being abused. It's not really "news", just twisted anecdotes.
Because there is rarely anything hopeful anymore.
[b]Go to jail
Go directly to jail
Do not whine that you didn't know what you were doing
Do not cry that you're too young for any punishment
Do not claim that you were pressured into it
Do not collect $200[/b]
Assholes.
They'll get off on a plea deal, fuck.

That's the mentality that comes from only seeing depressing shit like this. I'm not saying we should avoid the tragic news or we should sugarcoat the real world, just that stuff like this isn't really newsworthy. And this isn't aimed at you, Zakkshock, there are a lot more trivial threads made. At least this one has the potential for discussion about gang violence.

Capital Punishment is stupid and useless.

They'll get the shit gangbanged out of them within days.
the only fit punishment is them getting raped by 8 Thailand dickgirls at once for 8 hours THEN be put in to prison
I can understand them going to jail for the rape of a minor but why is sodomy illegal?
