your daughter and the three girls she was with should be able to identify the boys and where they live. If I were in your shoes I wouldn't hesitate contacting the kids' parents about your complaint, and pressing criminal charges. If that doesn't work, sue the parents of the bullies on behalf of your daughter for negligent supervision of their brats and for personal injury (the "messed up knee" and emotional distress).

It's the parents' fault and responsibility. These things perpetuate themselves in our society when victims and parents of victims don't stand up for their rights and teach the freeptards a lesson.
