From the BBC: An 8 year old Liberian girl got raped. Her family in the US disowned her for this. Because "OMG guys, she was totally asking for it! You should have seen how she was dressed: her ankles were showing!"

cruelty to children, children, words cannot speak my dismay, crimes, rape, blaming the victim

What bothers me is that people in other communities are saying that the boys should be punished and all the hate is directed towards them. Maybe the older boys, but the nine and ten year olds? They need help as well as the poor girl.

Yeah there's totally something puggled in that community if that's how kids are behaving. Apparently the authorities have been deluged with offers of help. I think the parents also need re-educating that in a Western, liberal country they can not behave like that and get away with it.

They all need counselling and stuff to unlearn those behaviors.

Oh, good freaking CHRIST.

Whoever is her guardian after this, I hope they treat her a HELL of a lot better than her own family did.
