Four girls, including 11yo, charged after alleged assault at Sydney train station

NSW Police say officers were called to the station at about 9pm on Saturday to reports of a brawl, and arrested four girls at the scene.

Reminds me of this recent attack at Burwood NSW Australia by underaged girls.

NSW Police said the girls had been granted conditional bail and were all due to appear in a children's court later this month.

So she’s out and stabs again? Disgusting.
She’s lucky she is not under the US criminal justice system .

It's the line from the article posted above that that sticks out to me. This second stabbing "could put her bail in jeopardy"

Not could. Not should. Will.

Seriously.

Might be funny, especially if one is known to laugh to keep from crying.

Sad, frustrating, anger-producing, horrific....

Girls charged in fatal ‘swarming’ attack of Kenneth Lee headed to trial

The girls were arrested in December 2022, days before Christmas, after they allegedly swarmed and stabbed Kenneth Lee in the early morning hours downtown Toronto.

May 10, 2024
''Ontario Court Justice David Rose committed each of them to trial on Friday after 10 days of hearing evidence and argument at a preliminary hearing. But not all of the girls will stand trial on the second-degree murder charge laid by Toronto police.
Six of the girls, Rose ruled, will face trial on second-degree murder and two were committed to stand trial on the lesser charge of manslaughter.''

It is unfortunate that they will only get a slap on the wrist thanks to our YOA. I'm glad that she pleaded guilty instead of dragging it through court.

MANDEL: Swarming girl who pleaded to manslaughter still doesn't get it

She was 14 when she hit, punched and stomped on the homeless man in the vicious attack by girls on a rampage of senseless violence.

torontosun.com

'Even now, even after watching and rewatching the horrific video of her part in the senseless swarming attack on Kenneth Lee, where she’s enthusiastically hitting, punching and stomping on the vulnerable man — practically doing everything but actually delivering the fatal knife wound — the pig-tailed teen still has no remorse.'

“She thought Mr. Lee was a piece of s—,” the prosecutor said the now 16-year-old reported in her psychological assessment. “She minimizes her involvement (saying) ‘I have no guilt. I didn’t do anything serious. I had nothing to do with what caused his death.”

“She was one of the most violent in the group. She was dedicated to this attack and she was relentless, even to the last minutes when he was crumpled on the ground.”

And, this prize of a human being, will get a tiny slap on the wrist. Sickening.
