Suspected rapist drugs, attacks pupil inside bush


A suspected rapist in Osun state drugged and attacked a 15 year old secondary school student of Young Tajudeen Middle School, Ede, Osun for supposedly refusing him sex, Punch reports.
 
According to reports, on Wednesday April 30th, the victim who lived with her grandmother, had gone to the bush to pick mangoes when she was accosted by the alleged rapist who begged her for some mangoes. She said she obliged him but afterwards the man demanded for sex which refused. She said the man immediately forced a pill into her mouth which made her unconscious. By the time she woke up, there were machete cuts on her head, legs and wrist.
 
Explaining what happened, the girl said
"I went to the farm to pick mangoes on the day I was attacked. As I was heading for home, I met a man who asked me to give him some mangoes and I did. The man asked me of my name and I told him my name is Suweba, but my real name is (withheld). The man later said  he wanted to have sex with me, but I told him I was too young for that. The man threatened to cut off my head if I didn’t oblige him. He held my head, forced my mouth open and dropped a white pill inside my mouth. I fell down and I became unconscious. I was attacked around 2pm and I woke up when it was getting dark maybe around 7pm. I managed to crawl to the footpath and shouted for help, but none came until the following morning.” she said
 
Passersby the next morning found the girl on the pathway and then immediately rushed her to the hospital where it was discovered that the wounds she sustained had already started decaying with maggots coming out from it. 
 
Hospital staff, who described the attack as callous, believe the girl could have been attacked 48 hours before she was brought into the hospital and not the previous day as she said because of the maggot  infested wound.
 
Hospital staff say they would conduct test on her to ascertain if she was truly raped

Teen kills sister for being ungrateful



Police say a 14-year-old confessed to stabbing to death her 11-year-old sister(in above picture) in Illinois because the little girl had been ungrateful.
The victim, identified as Dora Berancourt, was knifed 40 times in her chest, neck and arms.
The 14-year-old has been charged with murder and will be tried in a juvenile court, as police keep probing the case.
The prosecution said the older girl set the alarm early so she could get to her sister while she was still in bed in their home in Mundelein, a small town just outside Chicago.
She took a knife from the kitchen and went to her sister’s bedroom.

The girls’ mother was not at home at the time of the attack
With each strike of the knife, prosecutors said, the suspect yelled reasons for her attack.
The 14-year-old girl told prosecutor she was furious because she had performed several domestic duties, such as making dinner, and her sister had been ungrateful.
She was also angry because Dora had hit her the night before, she told prosecutors.
Officials said the girls’ mother, the only adult living in the home, was at work when the stabbing took place.
The woman cried at a court appearance where details of the case were given.
The next court appearance is set for January 31.
The Chicago Tribune reported that a group of women in Mundelein are raising funds to help the family – so far making about $6,000 (£3,600)
