11-Year-Old Girl Found Delinquent in Attack on 5-Year-Old
Original: 11-Year-Old Girl Found Delinquent on Charges of Attempted Murder and Rape of 5-Year-Old Girl
An 11-year-old girl has been found delinquent on charges of attempted murder and rape involving a 5-year-old girl, according to a People.com report. The juvenile court finding means the child was adjudicated for the acts rather than convicted in a criminal trial, which is standard for defendants under a minimum age of criminal responsibility. Details of the case, including where it occurred and the younger girl's condition, were not provided.
Why now: The extreme youth of both the perpetrator and the victim, combined with the gravity of the charges, makes the case shocking and widely shared.
