Horrible videos circulated on social networks testify to appalling beatings and acts of violence against a young woman from Lower Austria. Three boys (16, 17, 19) – their so-called friends – were now on trial. Two of them received long prison terms.
From “friendship plus” to “Bonnie and Clyde” romance, the defense pinpoints “normal behavior in this circle of friends.” At least from the perspective of the three accused boys aged 16, 17 and 19. For the victim, a 15-year-old, it was a painful and humiliating abuse. Because the girl would have been raped and beaten for months. Of their supposed joys.
Terrible martyrdom
The meetings always went the same way: a public toilet, one or more boys, sexual acts from oral sex to consensual sex – as the 17-year-old prime suspect pointed out. A number of videos made of the attacks and published on social media testify that in reality it was much more brutal. In one, the victim lies unconscious and half-naked on the floor.
“I didn’t agree, but I just didn’t say no,” said the girl. Now the boys were charged with rape, pornographic images of minors, persistent violence and serious bodily harm, among other things.
years in prison
Two of the suspects (both with previous convictions) received unconditional prison sentences: the 17-year-old received three years, the 19-year-old eight years for rape in extremely degrading circumstances and attempted grievous bodily harm. The 16-year-old was acquitted. The judgments are not final.
