Horrific cell phone footage shows teen girls 'beating their 16-year-old friend before holding her down to be raped'

A 16-year-old girl was allegedly beaten by other girls before being held down to be raped in a horrifying attack that was filmed on a cellphone, it was revealed today.

Patricia Montes, 15, and 16-year-old Erica Avery are accused of punching, kicking and pepper-spraying the girl before holding her down to be raped by Jayvon Woolfork, 19, police said.

The barbaric attack was filmed on a cell phone by Lanel Singleton, 18, and shows the girl writhing half naked and weeping in the yard of a home in Hollywood, Florida while her attackers leer over her.

Is in why the condition formed. Psycopathy is, in layman's terms, being born incapable of empathy or moral conscience. Sociopathy, on the other hand, is disregard for others and anti-social behavior learned through environmental factors.

This article differentiates between sociopath and psychopath: http://voices.yahoo.com/sociopath-vs-psychopath-there-difference-1906224.html?cat=72

David Lykken a behavioral geneticist for the University of Minnesota has come to an interesting conclusion regarding the differences between sociopaths and psychopaths. Lykken studies revealed that psychopaths are born with temperamental differences that lead them to being risk seekers, impulsive, fearless as well as not being able to socialize normally. Sociopaths have normal temperaments, and their personality disorder tends to effect their lives regarding parenting, peers, and their intelligence.

For practical purposes, they're synonymous.

Granted that the "men" will (upon conviction), by the looks of them and their actions, I don't think any of them will be bothered by such a tag. Badge of honor for their type, I'm sure.

I admit that I had to laugh at one of the mugshots. Dwight Henry, you waste of fucking oxygen, you look like someone told you one time that you're a fucking miscreant.

Bond at $100,000/female idiot and it seems that each of these delightful princesses are out. How precious.

Dear parents of the alleged crims involved,
Please spay/neuter yourselves. You are doing it wrong. Bringing more of your obvious genetic defects (or your inability to raise your unfortunate results of breeding) into this world hurts us all. Please stop.

If the 16 year old victim has a father/brother/whatever anything like me, I pity you all.

will probably fare better than the actual rapist. juries are often stupid about harshly judging who look attractive to them, and that sucks for the victims.

They called the mothers of both girls to the stand, and each woman said their daughters had had only minor run-ins with police, and no history of violence.


They are 15 and 16 and they've already had "minor run-ins" with law enforcement? WTF?
