https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/may/21/boys-convicted-of-get-non-custodial-sentences-as-judge-says-they-should-not-be-criminalised-unnecessarilyBoys convicted of rape get non-custodial sentences as judge says they should not be criminalised unnecessarily. Boys physically overpowered and then filmed attacks on teenage victims in separate incidents in Hampshire. Three teenage boys convicted of knife-point rape and other serious sexual offences against two teenage girls in Hampshire have not been given custodial sentences because the judge said he “should avoid criminalising these children unnecessarily”.The boys, who were aged between 13 and 14 at the time of their offences, physically overpowered and sexually assaulted the girls, who were aged 14 and 15, in separate incidents two months apart.The boys, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were sentenced to youth rehabilitation orders ranging between 18 months and three years for their roles in the attacks, which prosecutors said were “brazenly filmed” on mobile phones.They were convicted of rape even in circumstances where they aided and abetted another boy to carry out an attack.One 15-year-old boy was convicted of three charges of rape against the two victims, who did not know each other, and four counts of taking indecent images. He will be subject to 180 days of intensive supervision and surveillance.The court heard he had an IQ of the “bottom 1% of his contemporaries” and had been diagnosed with ADHD. Another of the rapists, also 15, was also diagnosed with ADHD as well as “longstanding anxiety”, while the third defendant, now 14, was described as having a “mild cognitive impairment”.Judge Nicholas Rowland told them: “None of you need to go to prison today.” Explaining his sentence, he said he wanted to support the boys’ reintegration into society, adding: “I should avoid criminalising these children unnecessarily.”
He stressed the “seriousness” of the boys’ crimes and said their filming of the attacks made them even “more serious”.He added that he needed to remember the boys were “very young”, had low intelligence, a “limited understanding of consent” and “peer pressure played a large part in what went on”.“I think of you as very young and none of you have been in any big trouble before,” he said. “You have all done very well with the restrictions put in place throughout the trial.”Hampshire’s police and crime commissioner (PCC), Donna Jones, said the sentences “offer little comfort to their victims”.She added: “I’m deeply concerned these boys felt they could carry out such terrifying acts and share them online and not go to prison. Their sentences reflect a clear focus on rehabilitation rather than criminalisation. They are far too lenient.”The PCC added: “Should the victims and their families take the decision to appeal the sentences, I will offer my support.”Southampton crown court was told that in January 2025, the 14-year-old girl had been threatened with a knife after becoming separated from her friends.Forced to leave her mobile phone and AirTag in a shop so her movements could not be tracked, she was made to walk to a secluded field, where she was raped by two of the defendants as they filmed the incident.After she reported the assault to the police, an investigation identified that a second victim, aged 15, had been raped in November 2024 by two of the same defendants.She had travelled alone to meet one of the boys for what she thought would be their first date after chatting to him on Snapchat.The victim was then raped by two of the boys in an underpass by the River Avon in Fordingbridge and a video of her 90-minute ordeal was shared on social media, resulting in her receiving abusive messages, prosecutors said.
The victim was then raped by two of the boys in an underpass by the River Avon in Fordingbridge and a video of her 90-minute ordeal was shared on social media, resulting in her receiving abusive messages, prosecutors said.The victim of the first incident came to the court for the sentencing hearing and, screened from the view of the boys, described how her mental health had deteriorated since the incident.She said: “I will never get that innocence back again.”She read aloud a poem she had written, saying: “All I want to do is die, I no longer have fear for when that comes.”A statement read on behalf of the second victim revealed she struggles to go to school now and suffers from nightmares and sleeplessness. “I feel ashamed, insecure and uncomfortable in my own body,” she said. “The person I was before the incident has completely gone.”The judge praised the bravery of the two girls for providing their statements and giving evidence.Siobhan Blake, who leads the Crown Prosecution Service’s Rape and Serious Sexual Offences unit, said the incident was “deeply distressing” and was part of a trend.“Our prosecutors tell us they are seeing youth-on-youth cases with some involving more serious and more violent behaviour.“It is vital young people are educated and informed about consent and that harmful and misogynistic attitudes are tackled as early as possible to prevent these crimes. Everyone has a part to play.“Young people must understand that sexual activity without consent is a serious criminal offence that can lead to them being prosecuted.”
“Young people must understand that sexual activity without consent is a serious criminal offence that can lead to them being prosecuted.”Rebecca Hitchen, spokesperson at the End Violence Against Women Coalition, said: “We are hearing that young men are perpetrating more and more sexually violent crimes, and this case is a horrific example of this.“We must question what young men are being taught and exposed to that results in them planning and executing such appalling violence as a group, particularly given the additional harm and degradation caused by the assaults being filmed.”She said sexual violence devastates victims’ lives, and its effects ripple out across their communities, “creating a source of heightened fear for women and girls trying to go about their daily lives”.“While we do not know the online environments these boys were exposed to, online misogyny is so pervasive that few young people will escape its reach. Questions must be asked about the extent to which misogynistic content online has contributed to the extreme harm they have committed. While perpetrators must be held accountable, we must also ensure that tech platforms are put under scrutiny for their role in such harm,” she added.All three boys have been made subject to a 10-year restraining order against their victims.
Boys will be boys.

>>1516194Not him, but this is why this doesn't happen in America. We have racism and guns.
>a lot of native british grooming gangs in the news latelyAnd that's just the white rapists because non-consenting sex never happened in UK before there were any coloreds in that country, amirite? And rape by white men still happens to this day. GCHQ has helped Scotland Yard in cracking down on pedo rings
>>1516205you're not american
>>1516207Nobody is on this board.
>>1516175It’s not legal. They were convicted and sentenced for it.
>>1516192The descendants of the native British make up around 2% of the population. Celts aren’t native and neither are Saxons or any of the groups that arrived later.
>>1516192According to the BBC the picts were black, so maybe.
>>1516206>because non-consenting sex never happened in UK before there were any coloreds in that country, amirite?oh no, it's another "leftist doesn't understand per capita" thread.Or is this another "progressive who agrees with leftists about everything doesn't understand per capita" thread?

>>1516170>He added that he needed to remember the boys were “very young”, had low intelligence, a “limited understanding of consent” and “peer pressure played a large part in what went on”.I'm starting to realize why so many people back in medieval times had zero tolerance for this kind of shit.
>>1516219What does that have to do with this thread?>nothing, but this thread BTFO of me and I have nothing to counter it with, but my company pays me per reply so I had to say somethingokay I get it, continue your hustle. Do you get a bonus for me giving you a (You)?

>>1516238have another bonus (You). I know that with AI taking over times are tough for shills right now.
>>1516242god you're esl
>>1516240Rape by white men statistically doesn't happen. The police have to put Pedro and Muhammed down as white just to keep the statistics up. Feel free to prove me wrong and find some white males convicted of rape on arrests.org
>>1516250you're really our little esl uncle ruckus aren't you
>>1516251Someone fix this broken bot.
>>1516257Fix the resident lolcow? Why? Shit's hilarious. Not the posts, but the mental illness behind them.Imagine posting "esl shill" 1700 times a day for 8 hours a day for over two years just because our lolcow is is an idiot whose ideas don't stand up to scrutiny but the religious belief they are true over powers constantly being proven wrong over and over again, every single time the lolcow makes a non-troll post.It sits in disbelief it's wrong, and without anything else to do it just rattles off one of it's 3-5 scripted posts.Hilarious.
i don't think esl shill is too pleased with his nickname, eh
>>1516268>>1516257See, look, it's chasing it's "esl shill" again."esl shill" being everyone.Meds? No, he don't need no stinking meds. Just 100 more straight hours of making useless posts will do.lol.
see, esl shill responds to his nickname quite promptly. i don't know why he's so mad
>>1516271lol stop. I'm about ready to shit myself laughing
Are the ESL shills in the room with us now?
ESL shill here. I promise never to suck another billionaire dick, ever again.
So anyway, criminal aliens gangraped more native women and were praised by a somehow insulated judiciary who basically threw out the evidence by calling their criminalization "unneccessary" and not punishing them.Society needs to be broken up. No more central authority and "unity" politics.
>>1516275that's not nice to say about donald trump anon
>>1516274So no more voting Democrat?
>>1516275You can't get a fair trial in the UK because Muslims will never convict another muslim. That's not even my opinion. Islam forbids them from convicting another muslim in a foreign court
>Rapist-in-Chief Trump and its billionaire buddies>ESL shill here. I promise never to suck another billionaire dick, ever again>So no more voting Republicanftfy
>That's not even my opinionSo when a rape incident happens in Hull that Salman Anwar - Reform UK's elected councillor - has information about but refuses to give a statement to Humberside Police, and he can be arrested for refusing to co-operste with them, there's Farage fucked, electorally.And it's not just your opinion that's destroyed.

>>1516280>and he can be arrested for refusing to co-operste with themI'll believe it when it happens
>>1516170out of touch nobles i mean judges excusing rape as someone else's problem why am i not surprised. the british revolution redux can't come soon enough.idc if they have ADHD they should be castrated either way starting with this judge and his bloodline for being complicit
>>1516211slap on the wrist and an admission that its fine because you're young so commit more crimes.
Must suck not to have a second amendment in Britain.
>>1516218Where are the datasets confirming this per capita argument?
>>1516278That’s not true
>>1516285It’s not legal though. Saying rape is legal in the UK is a false statement.
>>1516296when crimes aren't punished then legality isn't an issue.
>>1516296It is legal in the UK the same way jaywalking is legal: It's a crime where the punishment is so light that it will doubtfully ever be enforced ever againunless you're white

But >>1516279 isn't, though1516282MPs in UK have been arrested for crimes, so don't think that politicians are above the law: and councillors aren't as politically important as MPs.

Shoo, shoo.
>>1516192Look at this comedic genius, absolute amazing bit dude!
>>1516310As it should be since women tend to vote for immigrants and liggeralism.I think they should get a 30 days in prison to collect letters from female penpals to rape.
>>1516342i feel sorry for your mother
>>1516314Look up the Pinto
>>1516354Why? She married an honest man and had many happy children. This was before the world was flooded with rapey browns, who complain about billionaires enrich billionaires and to make liggerals feel superior to the poor browns.
>>1516369Who made you this racist? Did a brown person steal your lunch money?
>>1516371My car twice, but no. Living around browns tends to have that effect. That's why all the Southern Cletus' who live in 60% brown states are racist and the liggerals who live in gated all white communities think they're "just like us".
>>1516175the absolute state of your mind
The absolute state of orange pedo enablers
>>1516277>Trump is a billionaire>Trump's cabinet has at least 12 other billionaires in it>Trump takes orders from think tanks full of dozens of billionaires>somehow the dems are the party of billionairesWeird logic.
>>1516383Projection is the most basic of the basics for fascists. If you accuse your opposition of what you yourself are doing it confuses the argument. It's stupid, but it works.
>>1516383Yes, all the other billionaires use Democrats to extract wealth from the government via taxes. that's why all the other billionaires donate to Democrats.Move from denial to acceptance. You're on the side of the billionaires you think you hate. The give you your new, your late night comedy shows and form your politics.
