Boys, 8 And 9, Charged With Rape

(CBS/AP)  Three boys ages 8 and 9 were being held Monday in a detention center on charges of kidnapping and raping an 11-year-old girl in the woods near a suburban Atlanta apartment complex, officials said.

The alleged attack happened Thursday and the girl's mother reported it to authorities Sunday, Acworth police Capt. Wayne Dennard said.

The girl said the boys lured her into the woods behind her Acworth apartment complex, reports Rebekka Schramm of CBS affiliate WGCL-TV in Atlanta.

"And they said, let me see your breasts and I said no," the girl told Schramm. "And they said you better do it. And they had this kind of like a rope thing and he was hitting me with it and it hurt really bad."

The girl said the little boys raped her against her will.

"I feel very mad what they did to me, because I wish they didn't do this to me," the girl said.

The three boys were charged with rape, kidnapping, false imprisonment and sexual assault, Dennard said. Their names were being withheld because of their age.

Prosecutors have not decided whether to try the suspects as adults.

"They do need to be taught a lesson because if they do it to her, they could do it to somebody else," the girl's mother said. "And who knows when they become teenagers what they can do to other girls."

The father of one of the boys said his son is being accused of luring the girl into the woods.

"He's only 45 inches, 40 pounds in the third grade," the boy's father said. "This girl's in the fifth grade, she's 11 years old, 2 foot taller than him. How can my boy with a broken wrist be accused of any kidnapping charge?"

The boy's father said he believes she made up the story to cover up her promiscuity.

"She's trying to cover her own butt by getting everyone else in more serious trouble," the boy's father said. "I guess we're just going to have to see how this is going to unfold."

Acworth is 28 miles north of Atlanta in the city's fast-growing outer suburbs.

Ahhhh, I get it, just like how my pet name for men is ********.

Hmmm, we have something in common.:)

And if your pissed because we are doing things with the First Nations people, when we aren''t First Nations, then the fact that my other daughter is a makeup artist and worked on the Aboriginal People''s Television Network doing a T.V. series, should really **** you off even more!:)

tucker - I missed this post last night.

I''''m an orphan, poor and my financial future is bleak, at best.

You may have pulled this one over on your wife but you ain''t fooling me.

"I don''''t celebrate Thanksgiving because I have no friends or family."

Now this I can believe. With your attitude I can understand why.

Actually I think I know what your problem is! Because you still haven''t gotten over your wife and I remind you of her, YOU HAVE THE "HOTS" FOR ME!

That''s okay, Toolmangler has the HOTS for me too!:)

Well if me making dream catchers (which I do not sell) pisses you off and reminds you of your wife then the fact that I am also IRISH should really please you, I guess.:)

On another post when you were talking about your wife, you said you were "over it". Yeah right, it sure sounds like it. A bit touchy ain''t you?

"Like you, she''''s also insane.

Goodnight, b*tch, hope you choke on your turkey.

What the hell is your problem? Upset because I called you ********? I thought that was quite funny. I call my husband worse than that and he thinks it''s cute.

And as far as choking on my turkey, I told you it isn''t our Thanksgiving.

Or are you mad because I made dream catchers like your wife?

I am beginning to think you are senile like ToolMangler.

I really don''t understand why this happened.

Gunownerdan is always yakking about everyone having a gun to protect themselves but it didn''t do much for her, now did it?

[erasmus6]

My daughter went to college and took criminology. She worked in a First Nations prison for awhile. Plus for years she has volunteered at First Nation''s celebrations and Pow Wows.

And I worked for the First Nations making DREAM CATCHERS!

Just thought I would share that with you.

Yup, I would say that was a pretty good reason, alright.
