In a troubling case from the United Kingdom, three teenagers, aged 13 and 14, were convicted of gang raping two schoolgirls but avoided prison time. Prosecutors revealed that the boys filmed their attacks, targeting a 15-year-old girl at an underpass and later gang-raping another girl at knifepoint. Despite their convictions, Judge Nicholas Rowland opted for rehabilitation, stating that prison was unnecessary and highlighting the influence of peer pressure. The two older boys, now 15, received three-year Youth Rehabilitation Orders (YRO) with 180 days of intensive supervision, while the youngest received an 18-month YRO. All three are subject to a three-month curfew and ten-year restraining orders to prevent contact with their victims. This leniency has drawn criticism from officials, including Hampshire and Isle of Wight Police and Crime Commissioner Donna Jones, who expressed concern that such sentences offer little comfort to the victims and fail to hold the offenders accountable for their actions.
