Boy, 11, Charged With Rape of Woman, 76

[DarkAce]

MILWAUKEE - An 11-year-old boy was charged Wednesday with raping a 76-year-old neighborhood woman in her home as three of his friends stood watch.



Police said that for a week before the attack, the boys had been "terrorizing" the woman in her house, repeatedly breaking in and taking cash and other items.


The woman, who lived alone, told police she was taking a sponge bath in the kitchen Friday when the 11-year-old walked in, demanded money and then ordered her to take off her clothes and go into the bedroom, according to court papers.


The boy's brother, a 13-year-old who was among the three other boys also charged, said he heard the woman say: "I'm just an old, half-crippled lady, I'm not going."


The woman said the 11-year-old put on a condom and tried to rape her, followed by a second boy.


The 11-year-old was charged in juvenile court with sexual assault and being a party to burglary and criminal trespassing. The other boys — ages 11, 12 and 13 — were charged with being a party to burglary and criminal trespassing.


In court Wednesday, the 11-year-old facing the less serious charges called out, "Hi, Mom" after spotting his adoptive mother.


"I'm very hurt because my son was raised as a good boy," she said outside court. She complained that police abused the boys to obtain confessions.

Haha has anyone else noticed how the screwed up kids are the ones with parents who think they raised their kids well?

Is it just me or does it seem kind of odd that 11,12 and 13 year olds would have the urge to have sex, let alone try rape a 76 yo woman??? Yeah hormones kick in and the drive to get some hits, but wtf?

The fact that these children among others are performing criminal acts coupled with blatant lack of regard/respect for their elders speaks volumes about the lack of values imparted upon them by their parents. Yes...the parents are as much to blame for this bullshit as the perpetrators.

I agree with Joe. Yech.....

It's probably a good thing that the decendants of said victim (if she has them) didn't get to the kids first, as I'm sure they would have imparted in about five minutes the many years of teaching these kids were not given--or failed to learn. But that brings up another point--why weren't the decendants or community more involved if there were prior incidents, as alleged?

hhhmmmm......damn kids today!

There's no excuse possible for this horrific act. But... what should be done with these kids?!? Jail? Therapy? Both? My mind has gone blank this time...

Disgusting.
