Sorry, no repost from me, for it's no use since I'm in Russia(((
You know, I thought our, Russian, society tends to blame the victims, to always make it look like it's the girl who's asking for trouble ("she was born a girl so she obviously asks for a rape", or so it seems, urgh), I couldn't imagine it would be the same in the States (with all the fuss about sexual harassment I've heard of).
I hope all of those bastards are sent to jail (actually, I hope it's an around-the-world tradition among the prisoners to do smth dirty to children rapists, I'm bad, I know, but!).
(frankly speaking, the mother IS to blame, but the girl? a child is not responsible for having stupid careless parents)
Sorry, too emotional.
