Police probe 'happy slap' rape claims

10.42AM, Sat Jun 18 2005

Police are investigating claims that an 11-year-old girl was raped by two schoolboys while a third filmed the attack on a mobile phone.

Three 14-year-olds were arrested and questioned about the alleged attack which officers fear is an horrific new twist on the "happy slapping" craze.

Detectives are investigating claims that sickening video clips of the sex assault were then sent to the handsets of other youngsters.

The "happy slapping" phenomenon, in which thugs use mobiles to film random attacks, has been reported across the country in recent weeks but the latest incident marks a new low.

The girl is a pupil at a comprehensive secondary school in London, which is not being named to protect her identity.

She told police that she was attacked at a house, where she was socialising with a group of boys, after school on April 25.

Police believe one of the group filmed what was happening and sent it to at least one other phone a short time later.

Teachers at the school discovered that the footage was being passed round after it had already been seen by dozens of pupils.

Four days after the alleged attack the three boys were arrested.

Two are suspected of having intercourse with the girl and the third is suspected of having done the filming. They have all been bailed until July 12.

A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said: "Detectives are investigating an allegation of rape against an 11-year-old girl by two boys, both aged 14.

"The incident was alleged to have happened at an address in north London on April 25.

"Three boys, all aged 14, were arrested on April 29 in connection with the incident."

The case is being investigated by Scotland Yard's Operation Sapphire team which deals with sex attacks.

I saw this in the paper waliing home from my girlfriends earlier and I am completly disgusted.

Happy Slapping is bad enough but then they decide to rape her, film it and distrubute the footage!?

What the hell is this country coming to when 14 year olds rape and film it? And a girl who is only 11 years old.

This country is going to be screwed in 10-20 years time when this generation is the main population. Think how many scumbag kids they are going to have.

The government and police need to wake up to the fact that this countries youth population are no more then criminals.

It disgusts me too. All I know is that my kid will be put through the wall if I found him doing that.

EDIT: Actually, I would bring my kid up properly in the first place.

Exactly, unfortunatly the current generation of parents all think that mindless violence/mugging/rape/drugs are fine for their kids.

Yeah. If it wasn't for the video capabilities of mobile phones we'd be living in utopia :| Damn you Nokia/samsung/Motorola :| Damn you kids too :|

When i was young all kids ever did was help old people cross the road whilst carrying their shopping home and in the process try to figure out an end to the worlds ills (although their were none at the time.)

it makes me sick to read that, i cant believe the country i live in, tony blair needs to get his thumb out his ass and do something, the country is going down hill fast :crazy:

Look, I'm all for defending my country, but that has nothing to do with a much more serious matter. This young girl's life was just really thrown out of whack and I only hope these pricks don't get off easy because they aren't "adults".

Chavs anyone?

Agreed... f**king scum :no:

The problem with the CJS is that these kids will get 6 years in detention and then be released. The girl will be effected for far longer than that.

And too record it, SICK :x but STUPID as well :blink:

Oh, knowing the state of the UK - they'll just be sent to bed with no cookies or milk.

Whats worse is due to their age they will get slapped wrists and told not to do it again and that will be it.

In the mean time that girls life is destroyed.

Out of curiosity, can you actually show any examples of where someone has just been "slapped on the wrist" for raping someone? (english footballers excluded.)

Put it like this.

If a 25 year old man was found guilty of rape, he would do time ( And probably get out after half the time he was suppose to do)

These kids, 11 arnt they? They will get nothing... not even comminity service, probably an Asbo/Curfew to be inside by 9pm or something like that.

    • So, recently, I saw on the news that Samsung is introducing features where it can provide education using AI-powered sets, and because of this, I got concerned about whether the AI gives out wrong info during education sessions, causing controversies in the process. What are your thoughts on this? 
    • TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The TCL Design Series A65K is currently $299.99, down from $499.99. That's 40% off and $200 saved on a soundbar tuned by Bang & Olufsen, which is not a combination you'd normally expect at this price point (purchase link below). Bang & Olufsen doesn't typically show up in the sub-$500 category. The Danish audio brand is known for speakers that cost several times more, so having their acoustic tuning on a $300 soundbar is very appealing. TCL handles the hardware, B&O handles the sound engineering, and the result is what the company calls "accessible luxury." Still, accessible luxury isn’t full-fledged luxury, so don’t expect wonders. But this is a decent soundbar, nevertheless. The A65K is a true 3.1.2 channel system with nine physical drivers, including genuine up-firing height speakers for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Many soundbars at this price simulate overhead effects through virtual processing, rather than actual hardware. So, you’re getting the real deal. The design is unusually slim for a system with Atmos compatibility. The bar is just under 2 inches deep and should fit beneath most TV screens. The wireless subwoofer is also compact at roughly 14 x 14 x 5 inches. Total output is 460W, and you can connect to the soundbar via HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, or USB. There are also eight sound modes through the TCL Home app and an AI calibration capability. Although it’s worth mentioning that AI capabilities in most of these devices are inconsistent, to say the least, and that shouldn’t be the biggest selling point. Still, at $299.99, the A65K is a strong buy for anyone who wants a soundbar that sounds and looks noticeably better than what this price range usually offers. And the Bang & Olufsen branding surely sounds nice - pun intended.

    • And he paid Joe Rogan $30M for podcasts. Terrible company.
    • I sure hope the AI does not give out wrong info during education
