I stumbled across this article a few minutes ago:
A 15-year-old Paradis girl has been arrested after allegedly having inappropriate sexual contact with five boys under the age of 11, according to the St. Charles Parish Sheriff’s Office.
The girl was arrested Monday after she allegedly showed up at a party at the home of one of the victims, where the assault occurred on Nov. 14.
The girl, whose identity is being withheld because of her age, was booked with three counts of aggravated rape and five counts of indecent behavior with a juvenile.
A spokesman for the Sheriff’s Office said the aggravated rape counts stemmed from the ages of three of the victims and that there was no indication that there was violence involved.
The girl was later released into the custody of her parents.
The mother of one of the victims contacted the Sheriff’s Office after hearing about the incident.
There is a bit of similarity with this case and the recent case of an 11-year-old girl accusing three boys of rape. It is possible that the sex was consensual and that the issue here is more of one of legality rather than threat. However, given the girl’s age in this case, 15-years-old, it is highly improbable that her actions stem from simple childish interest. At 15 she would very well know that having sex with a boy under 11 is wrong, illegal and rape. At 15, her actions could be considered the beginning of a pedophilic interest in prepubescent boys.
Interestingly, despite being charged with the rape of three boys under 11, the girl was released to her parents. The three boys in Georgia remain locked in “detention,” which is just a politically correct word for juvenile jail, despite being 9 and 8-years-old and despite that two of the boys never actually touched the accuser. They are in jail, but a 15-year-old girl who decided to have sex with boys 10-years-old and under is free.
Not only that, but girl was not arrested until this past Monday, November 26th. Based on the phrasing in the article, it sounds as if the police were aware of the incident directly following it on November 14th. So this girl was left to do whatever she wanted for almost two weeks, including going to a party at the house of one of the boys she is accused of raping.
That said, the Louisiana aggravated rape law is one of the most insane I have ever seen. The charge carries a default mandatory life sentence with no parole. The girl’s identity is being protected because of her age, but that does not mean she is not necessarily charged as an adult. But even if charged as a juvenile, the mandatory sentence would still stand and she would be sentenced to remain incarcerated until 21. Even if the boys involved are quite young, that is still a ridiculous sentence given that there is no means of lessening it while maintaining the serious charge. So unless the prosecutors accept a plea deal for a lesser charge, this girl could be sentenced to 7 years or life without parole, if charged as an adult, mandatory.
Part of the thing is the phrase “no violence involved.” That phrase seems to pop up whenever looking at female offender sex assaults. Without regard to harm done or force used it seems to be no-violence.
As you say, the boys are under arrest and she is released. Which is typical. An eight year old boy is more of a threat in our society that a 15 year old girl. That is pretty sick!
Well, it is entirely possible that there was no violence involved. But I too read that line as an implication that because the accused is female she could not possibly have used violence or the threat of violence to force the boys into sex.
Come on, we all know the boys wanted it.
Brian: Rite… 3 boys all under 10. so like 9 and under.
Did you want to have sex with girls when you were 8 or 9? I didn’t fcking think so.
But thats beside the point anyway, she’s not going to do any jail time, i know it, yet if i did this i’d be getting 5-10 years, even if the girls “wanted it”.
So dont give me that crap brian. Maybe no violence was involved, maybe it was, it still doesn’t justify why the 8-9 year olds are in jail while the 15 year old girl is free at home, as if she never comitted a crime.
Brian was being sarcastic, not serious.
This just goes to show how bad things in this contry are getting. especialy the courts. This is’nt about the facts in the cases, it’s about the prosecuters and what they think or feel about the peaple and the case. What they need to be doing is following the law as it is writen in the law books.
I also feel I need to comment on The children in these trials. Thats just it they are CHILDREN!!!
Again, its the prosecuters who make the decision whether or not they get charged as a CHILD or an adult. It seems as if they feel they work with God and can decide when it’s apropriate to take a childs life(putting a 15 year old in jail with life without porole I feel is taking their life) or punish them like they’re a child.
Assuming these kids are found guilty, then of coarse they should be punished, as a child. They should also get lots of counceling. the parents should also be looked at carefully as well. As they say, the fruit don’t fall far from the tree. make sure the chid dos’nt go back to an unfit home,as it seems to be. She has been to at least one party since her release. Sounds parental to me.
I bet those boys will be beat up after school by their classmates for crying rape.
Wow, i didnt know this kind of thing hapenes. Men raping men is like more “normal”. But wow… This is pretty wierd and scary.
LUCKY KIDS
You realize of course that by saying that you technically imply that you enjoy the rape of children.
I find it sick and shocked.. the 8-9 year old boys get in jail while the ”rapist” is jerking off at her home… I find it very ridiculas, -.-” really sickens me..
Its somewhat very sexist.. on this type of opinion
I cant believe the kids had sex that early!!! Thats just insane! Why would a 15 year old girl want to get horny with 8 and 9 year olds??? That creeps me out!
What these boys have suffered is terrible and the police need to fully understand this, treat this 15-year-old girl’s actions as criminal, and protect the victims from her. This case is very sad to me because they are all still children, even though she is older and bigger than the boys she abused and caused them great harm. I hope the boys get what they need, and that she gets what she needs. She also needs to be treated by the police/law like a boy would be treated by them in her position.
I think it is highly possible that this girl has been sexually abused herself as a child. If she has been, I wonder if her abuse was ever reported to the police and resulted in a conviction?
If the girl was abused, chances are that the police would not inquire about it. Many boys in sex offender treatment eventually admit that they were abused, but I have never heard of any instances of officials reporting the abuse and the child’s abuser being prosecuted. It may occur, but I would suspect that given the situation few prosecutors would want to handle such cases. The child’s claim of abuse could easily be dismissed as a sex offender trying to pin responsibility on an adult. Another reason is that even an incompetent attorney for the child would argue that the child be released from custody in exchange for the child’s testimony.
However, in cases with older children, it is also possible that they are simply acting out their fantasies on younger kids.
Any word on her sentence TS?
None that I am aware of. If the case was handled in juvenile court, the information might not have been made available. It would depend on the laws in that state.
If you thought being a girl and being over taken by a man and raped was horrible and tramatizing trying being a boy and being over powered by a girl and raped.
And people just tell you to TOUGHEN UP be a man it wasn’t violent.
The laws on violence and sexual crimes are so heavily double-standard if you are a man that has been a victim you know its just best if you shut your mouth, its part of why psychologist see such a larger number of woman instead of men, there is support for woman who are victims, for men the only support they can hope to get is suicide, meth, or alcohal. its very tramatizing to the mind and they’ve been taught not to show weakness.
That is very true. I have spoken to many male survivors over the years and most of them are old enough to be my father. Some my grandfather. The major reason why they never came forward was because they believed they were supposed to be able to handle it on their own. Ironically, when sex abuse began to get more attention in the 80s, these same men were further turned away because the professionals handling the issues did not extend that outreach to men and boys. They remained silent because the very people who are supposed to help them made it seem like those male survivors were not supposed to ask for help.
We can want society to change, but when the support groups and professionals refuse to change it presents a much greater issue. There needs to be more outreach and more support tailored for male victims. The more that happens, the more those people challenge social views, the easier it will be to fight the stigmas that keep male victims silent.
Call me what you will. Those boys got “lucky”. I think they should all be given thorough lessons on pregnancy and STD’s and be released. The girl – too.
Several words describing those who think sex with a child is a learning lesson come to mind, however, I doubt that you would want anyone to call you those names.
I hate the double standard females get for them. Women get it off so much easier because they’re “weaker and more vulnerable”. Say what you want, but a 15 year old girl will almost always be stronger than a 8 or 9 year old boy. People always assume that a boy is always stronger even if it’s a competition between a boy and a grown woman. As for those who think that the boys were lucky, they weren’t. They can’t even feel sexual urges at that age. Abuse is abuse, and it shouldn’t be considered a good thing to have done to you just because you’re a boy.
