90-year-old Woman Raped by Three Teenagers
On August 12th, three teenagers in Detroit, MI have been charged with raping a 90-year-old woman. Maurice Randall, 17, Anthony Hardy, 18, and a 15-year-old boy whose name is not being released because he is a juvenile were arraigned immediately.
The crime took place on the west side of Detroit. The attack angered residents of the neighborhood who started patrolling the neighborhood with bullhorns urging witnesses of the attack to come forward. Police have stated that more than 200 volunteers played a key role into finally solving this case and finding the guilty parties. The united front of the volunteers shows how people can aid in bringing justice forward. It is tragic for any woman to have to go through such brutality. It is fortunate that the men responsible for this injustice are going to be held responsible for their actions.
Every two minutes someone in the U.S. is a victim of sexual assault. Elderly women are especially vulnerable because they are less likely to physically be able to protect themselves from such an attack. If your family member was a victim of rape, there can be no course of action to take away the emotional anguish a person suffers from that type of incident. Contacting an Arizona personal injury attorney can help bring the responsible parties to justice and help your loved one receive compensation for their injuries.
