8 teenagers against 1 in Polk County, FL?

Question

I'm sure everyone has heard about this story. About the 8 teenagers (6 girls/ 2 boys) beat a girl, taped it and planned on putting it on youtube and myspace to become "so called" famous. In my opinion, I think those 8 teenagers should be trial as adults. They all knew what they were doing but didn't stop. They think this a game. Let me know your thoughts about this. You can see the video in youtube but I think they took it out. I saw it yesterday and it was one of the worst thing that can happen to anyone. I can't believe no one tried to stop it.

Answer 1

why can't you tube delete these films as quick as yahoo do some questions..this sickened me when i first saw it.. and still does,.. i hope these 8 get a taste of what they put this poor girl through.. and i hope she gets the love and support she so rightly deserves..

Answer 2

I think its great to see them being tried as adults. I like seeing there faces now. They're not smirking or joking around anymore because there in alot bigger trouble than they thought they were in. I think attempted murder should be also included in the trial because they girl passed out and got a concussion than the video everyone sees comes on. So that means they weren't only mean they were malicious and when you have  a concussion you can die if you get hit hard enough again. I think the boys should get 5 years the big bruiser girls 5-10years and the video tapers 3-5 years(obviously they probably wont even get that)(wouldn't mind seeing them all get more) and hopefully they're all sued for all there worth and bankrupt the h**l out of them.

Answer 3

Nothing will happen to the girls. Some psychologist will come up with some stupid reason why they did this. Girls have different problems that most people don't understand "BS" Mean is mean. They all had bipolar like the women who kill their kids.

Answer 4

I'd be willing to let the girl who got beat up, have five minutes with each of her attackers apiece along with her baseball bat!!:) Afterwards have all of the attackers sterilized so future generations don't have to be punished with their useless genes. And just what the devil are the parents of these 8 idioits doing in all of this? Smoking meth and watching Survivor on TV?

   On a separate thought, I haven't been in a fight in 16 years,back when I was 21. If I was to get into a fight, I'll be damned if I would have it taped for posterity!! How dumb is that!! Stupid people shouldn't breed!!:)

Answer 5

I'm with tip706 -- I would LOVE to see how "bad" they can be in jail.  The whole thing is a damned shame.

Answer 6

Oh my gosh! that is so messed up! I just watched it ! yeah the need to send they *** to jail wanna see how bad they are in there! i don't think they understand how serious it really is! she wasn't even fighting back... i feel so so bad for that girl! no they're blaiming youtube! its so many real fight that's posted though like real street fights!  but this is worst i seen yet mainly because she couldn't defend herself! that makes me so mad!

Answer 7

They just decided to treat the case as legal adults...

So the good news is that they will be tried as adults...

In Florida just heard on local news...
