Chicago police have arrested a 14-year-old boy and expect to charge a second youth in connection with the sexual assault of a teenage girl by multiple young men that was seen on Facebook Live ( FB.O ) in March, officials said on Sunday.
The girl's mother had approached police after an unrelated news conference and shown them images of her daughter being assaulted by five or six young men. The mother said the girl's uncle had told her about a video on Facebook Live that showed the assault.
It seems that while many, many people saw it online, not one person reported it!
And the police would not have been contacted had not the girl' uncle not happened to see it?
A 14-year-old boy has been arrested in the sexual assault of a 15-year-old Chicago girl that was streamed live on Facebook and watched by about 40 people who didn't report it to authorities, police said late Saturday.
" . . . watched by about 40 people who didn't report it to authorities"
These thugs are so nonchalant about a gang rape that they posted it on Facebook even though the video is demonstrable evidence of their guilt. Apparently, they all think this is funny. If they're charged as adults, I'm sure their own gang rape will be equally funny to the other inmates.

There may have been more than one perp.
Charge them all as adults, send them to prison and let them learn what it's like to be on the receiving end of rape.
Sad to see that we've become a society of observers instead of taking action when morals dictate we need to.

I understand the girl who was raped is now in the witness protection system due to threats against her life.
