Reuters: Soldiers charged in Iraq rape-murder case. ⇒

   10 July 2006, early afternoon

The US army tried to claim the raped girl was 20, when she was in fact 14. I'm not even sure that is the worse part of this whole story.

  1. “Rape & Murder: It’s not so bad if she’s an adult.”

    I don’t know if I find it more frightening because the US Military is not covering up the rape or the murder, but just her age….

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
