In spite of all our differences, the one thing that binds all living creatures is that we each have an expiration date. This finality to our existence is what makes life special, something to be cherished and protected. But occasionally things can go terribly wrong…
A Florida teen was beaten in an “animalistic attack” filmed for YouTube. Victoria Lindsay, 16, of Mulberry, Fla., is still having trouble with her hearing and vision since the March 30 attack. She will be taught at home until she finishes high school and will miss the upcoming prom. Her parents say Lindsay is still scared for her life.
Seven juveniles and one adult are in police custody and charged with felonious battery, false imprisonment and kidnapping. One of the girls struck Lindsay on her head several times and then slammed Lindsay’s head into a wall, knocking her unconscious, according to the arrest report. Later the teens can be seen blocking the door and hitting Lindsay repeatedly. Two males allegedly acted as lookouts, police said.
Update:Â Prosecutors are charging all seven juveniles as adults, and charging three of them with witness tampering.
