Cheerleaders Pummel Girl For 30 Minutes In 'Animalistic' Ambush Attack, Police Say
Sheriff: 'Shocking, I've Never Seen Anything Like It'

POLK COUNTY, Fla. -- Six teen girls lured a former friend to a home and ambushed her, taking turns pounding on her face and body for 30 minutes until she was unconscious as someone videotaped the violence, according to the Polk County Sheriff's Office.

"Shocking, I've never seen anything like it," Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said. "They seem to have absolutely no remorse at all. I don't understand the sheer violence."

Investigators said the victim apparently posted something against the six girls on MySpace before she was lured to the home by a phone call from teen Mercedes Nichols.

Police said the girl traveled to the house and walked into the trap.

One girl met her at the door and five others were hiding in a back room, detectives said. The girls were then seen on video pummeling the girl in the face and body and slamming her head into a wall.

1. For heckery, I searched YouTube

...What's amazing is how many fights from Polk County, Fla. there were.

I think the community has a problem bigger than the interwebs it needs to consider.

[Binka]

2. Disgusting. Where The Fuck Are These Animal's Parents?

MySpace is a menace BTW.

[Xenotime]

21. I'll bet she said something about them and they couldn't wait to take her out.

[devilgrrl]

3. I told that the cheerleaders were fucked up assholes!

Why won't anyone listen?

[msongs]

4. perhaps the same thing will happen to them after get put in prison - karma is a bitch nt

[The Gunslinger]

24. I just hope they get there.

I don't care how old they are. If they were mature enough to premeditate an attack like that, (which I consider attempted murder), they need to be removed from society for a long, long time. It's too bad daddy's lawyers will probably get the girls off with a little probation.

6. I'm surprised their pictures were published. I guess they are 18 or older?

The look on their faces is stone cold. What monsters raised these women to be so violent?

[Echo In Light]

14. Remember that Powder Puff hazing in a wealthy Illinois suburb a few yrs back?

Senior women, all eighteen, who were the top students, academically and athletically, beat the younger girls, covered them with all sorts of waste and such, made them eat feces, paint thinner, fish guts, etc, in front of a cheering mob for ninety minutes. Plenty of video cameras rolling, yet apparently no cell phones were used to call for help, yet you know that nearly every one of them likely had one. And why would any of these TOP students, and their throngs of slavish admirers, call for help anyhow when this is {was} an annual event that everyone was aware of for many yrs?!

Diseased culture.

[Echo In Light]

7. Next, on...

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

10. I never took her for a violent one

I guess you never know,

[madrchsod]

8. it`s a shame they will not receive prison time

they`ll get the max on the charges which, unless the charges are raised, will be max time in county jail, probation,and restitution.

now in prison they would get what they deserve

[Bucky]

9. Give me a second; I'm trying to figure out how to blame this on Dick Cheney.

[The Straight Story]

12. Well, those kids' most formative years were under bush/cheney

and they are in florida, where another bush was in power.

It all makes sense now...

[depakid]

16. And chances are they've seen a lot of local "news"

and cable shows where pimping this sort of violence and sensationalism is a daily norm.

[NashVegas]

23. Funny, I Had the Same Thought

When it got to the "no remorse" part. He sets quite the example, doesn't he?

[Quantess]

25. I love blaming Bush & Cheney.

You could add Jeb Bush, since he's the governor of Florida.

Actually there's really no one to blame except the little bitches themselves. Excuse me for using that word, but I think it's deserved in this case.

[Fumesucker]

11. There's an old saying..

If you are captured, bite your tongue off and drown in your own blood before you let them give you to the women.

I wonder where these girls got such an idea?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

13. Yeeeeeah, Team!

[Clear Blue Sky]

17. Wasn't there a movie called "Mean Girls" along these lines?

[Quantess]

27. Only worse!

Nobody got beat up in "Mean Girls".

[HawkerHurricane]

18. Some kind of stupid.

I mean, you plan a crime, you commit the crime, and you FILM YOURSELF committing the crime. What, are they going for a 'mentally incompetent' defense?

[flvegan]

19. They've released video of the precious little slags doing the beating.

32. That was really disturbing.

Surprizing that the sheriff released that; I'm afraid that might be grounds for a mistrial.

[ljm2002]

33. Might be grounds for a chane of venue...

...but not a mistrial, considering that the girls themselves posted the entire video to YouTube where anyone in the entire world is/was free to view it.

That was very disturbing. I hope the book gets thrown at these sorry excuses for human beings.

[ConcernedCanuk]

20. So much for the "fairer" sex image - I used to think of girls as sweet and cuddly

Sad how times change . . .

22. Teen Cheerleaders Behind Bars!

Maybe they'll feel differently when they find themselves living in a 1970s exploitation movie.


Some parents are utter failures at providing for their children's emotional upbringing.

28. Teen Cheerleaders Behind Bars.

I think I saw that at the drive-in when I was in high school.

[AnnieBW]

26. I'm just glad that this wasn't in vogue

when I was in high school. I would have been one of the victims.

[ozu]

29. good

They'll be tried as adults. Animals.

30. Total premeditation / in no way was this youthful indiscretion

There will be some people who will bemoan that some of these teenagers will be tried as adults and have their lives "ruined" by the criminal justice system.

In which case, BFD. These thugs practically attempted to kill this other girl and totally planned the event up to luring the victim to the house and then preventing her from leaving.
