Bij het lezen van dit bericht kan ik eigenlijk veranderen in een nerd rage ala Alpha Omega Sin. Want wat bezielt je als 14 jarig jochies om je buurmeisje van 10 te verkrachten terwijl ze met de Xbox aan het spelen is. Serieus, dat gaat er moeilijk in, want als je zulke shit doet moet je een behoorlijke kortsluiting in je boven kamer hebben. Het valt overigens wel op dat de laatste dagen gamers/consoles en video games weer in verband worden gebracht met moord en doodslag en zoals je hier onder kan zien nu ook met verkrachting.

Newport Crown Court heard the girl kept it a secret for four months - until her mother caught her playing a game of dare with the same boys in woodland.

Neither the boys or the girl can be identified for legal reasons.

Judge Ian Murphy said: "Her parents have described their daughter as an empty shell and say her innocence was taken away from her."

The court was told the two boys were playmates with the girl who lived nearby.

They had been kicking a ball around when it got cold - and the three friends went inside to play computer games on an Xbox.

But the older boy encouraged his younger friend to have sex with the girl and he later joined in.

The boys, now both 14, denied rape but were found guilty at a trial last month.

Judge Murphy ordered the boys to be electronically tagged for three months and put them under a 7pm to 7am curfew.

He told them: "This is a very serious offence. Had you been adults you would have been looking at a lengthy custodial sentence.

"You were very young at the time and used to play football with the little girl.

"You betrayed your friendship and you engaged in impulsive sexual exploration. No force was used but she was only a little girl of 10."

The court heard the girl had been left damaged by the two older boys.

The boys were given youth rehabilitation orders with intense supervision. They will attend a sexual offences programme and go on the sex offenders' register for two and a half years.
