Police say the defendants lured the woman, then 35, out of her apartment just a few miles from downtown West Palm Beach by claiming her truck had a flat tire. Three masked gunmen then forced her and her son, then 12, back inside. Others soon joined in the attack.
Lawson continued testifying Wednesday, describing the chaotic scene inside the woman's home, with attackers coming and going, raping the woman over and over, sodomizing her, beating the boy and forcing the mother to perform oral sex on her son.
Police say Lawson and the other defendants were among as many as 10 teenagers who attacked the woman and boy, and later doused the victims with cleaning solutions, nail polish remover and vinegar to clean the crime scene.

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
Hang the perps on the courthouse lawn.
This story makes me physically ill. These thugs are monsters.
I’m speechless at the inhumanity.
I've never heard of it either - which means the attackers were members of a "protected dem victim group"... If it had been white men doing this to a black woman and son - it would be on every news channel - and in every newspaper. (Just my guess - I could be wrong)
Welcome to America...
Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office Sgt. Stephen Hatfield escorts Avian Lawson into the courtroom to testify in West Palm Beach, Fla., Aug. 25, 2009. The teen defendant admitted Tuesday that when he was a 14-year-old middle schooler he participated in a gang rape of a mother and helped beat the woman's 12-year-old son in a horrific assault in which the two victims were forced to perform sex acts on each other.

That's why a great many Americans live in fearful conditions, with the inmates running the asylum.
If we were tougher, we would make a few mistakes, but the vast majority of Americans would end up living in safe and sane environments. The Left likes to speaks of the Greatest Good for the Greatest Number. Somehow that means that having 95% of the population cowering in fear of the feral population is now the Greatest Good.
castration with no anaesthetic is too good for this lot of sick animals.
Agreed.
The woman and her son are Haitian immigrants, the Africa American youths are your typical illiterate, gang bangers, hip hop neighborhood homies.
The police think as many as ten youth were involved in this crime
Their time is over. They would have been better off just comitting suicide. This is a very disgusting story.
I wish they’d get “Old Sparky” working again.
This crime, as described, makes me sick. I can't even put words to it at this time. Freakin animals...
Castration by mallet.
That is a very understandable wish.
But even when ol’ Sparky was up and running you could not execute for rape/kidnapping/torture and the like unless the victims died.
Too bad.
Not one of them showed mercy to the 35-year-old mother. They repeatedly violated her - vaginally, anally and orally - as she begged them to stop. She testified that each attacker who broke into her home sodomized her with an assault rifle. “Every time one is finished, the other one take his place, have sex with me in my behind,” she said in her Creole accent. “They keep calling me bitch. All of them were laughing. Some of them have sex with me three times. I was almost passed out. I couldn’t breathe. I tell them, please. When they’re having sex with me, they were holding my head, pulling my hair.”
Meanwhile, some of the assailants were across the hall beating her 12-year-old as he cried and begged for his life. Once they were through having their twisted version of fun with his mother, they forced her to have oral sex with him.
Their crimes were unspeakable. The punishment should fit them.
Robert Gershman, who represented Nathan Walker, asked the jurors to ignore morality, ignore the “hysteria” and ignore emotion. “No matter how morally reprehensible you believe the situation was, that plays no role. Who would stay, who would not report, who in their right mind would be there ... should not be in your decision. The immorality of it cannot sweep you away to a guilty verdict times 14.”
The jury chose not to ignore the evidence. Not to ignore the victim. Not to ignore the testimony of Lawson, whose version of events coincided with the victim’s. Both juries - Poindexter and Walker each had one - chose not to ignore the truth.
Still, the victim testified that 10 men assaulted her. Lawson identified six: Poindexter, Walker, Jakaris Taylor, Melvin Young, Augustus Fontaine and himself. Taylor goes on trial next month. Why haven’t West Palm Beach police arrested Young and Fontaine? Law enforcement officials say only that it’s an ongoing investigation. It had better be. For those who were there on June 18, 2007, with Poindexter, Walker and Lawson, the truth still awaits. And all of those who were there should face it.
When the hell are we going to put these gangs in their places. I mean these cretins are no longer human, they no longer deserve to be treated as such. We are far far too soft.
Sorry but i’d be all in favour of just rounding the gangs up and putting them all on some inaccesible island somewhere and let them fight it out away from everyone else.
If they wanna live like animals, then lets make them.
I thought the Haitians were the victims here, not the perps.
is there any racial things here?
I am reminded of the crowd beating the family on July 4 yelling “Its a black world”
take a good look at obama’s army.
no hate crim charge because the perps are black?
Also, no sutures.
American blacks attacking foreign-born blacks.... somehow this is probably not uncommon
Harriet Rogers, the mother of Dunbar Village rape suspect Tommy Poindexter, said she doesn't believe her son had anything to do with the June 18 assault. Her fiancé, Joseph Trowell, is in the background
She (his mother) said Poindexter is the youngest of her four children. He has a girlfriend, takes out the trash and plays with his nieces. He watches TV, plays video games and was planning to join the Job Corps to become a guidance counselor.
Rogers (Poindexter's mother) said she is a recovering crack cocaine addict who spent much of his childhood focused on getting high.
Poindexter appears to be a member of the increasingly violent and popular Buck Wild Gang, a group based in Riviera Beach responsible for several robberies and shootings. On the MySpace social networking Web site, pages affiliated with Buck Wild members showing guns, stacks of money and mug shots refer to Poindexter as a gang associate.
I'd say mash their nads over time. Like 10x the amount of time they brutalized this woman.
My oh my.
A very fine product that society has generated. There is no real replacement for good parenting. Thats where the crime begins. The parents should be jailed here , let them take responsibility for their criminal actions.
I like the idea. An island for all of the cretins of this order. Parachute drop their ass with food attached to them.
Didn't work in Knoxville either, guys...
Death by lethal injection would be too kind for these horrible animals. These are the kind of disgusting pukes that deserve vigilante justice. Their last breaths on this Earth cannot come soon enough.
Lord, it is hard to wish for mercy upon their souls.
This is the result of five decades of compromising with the criminal enterprise known as the democrat party, their Supreme Court appointments who legislate from the bench, their ACLU that works to overturn whatever they cannot otherwise subvert.
These kids are their fifth column, the government brainwashed, government impoverished, plantation residents that they've been cruelly manipulating for that same fifty years in order to spread fear and extort payoffs they use to hire their own. The people who did this are your tax dollars at work and now your tax dollars will keep them up even more so. After “good behavior” they'll serve what, 72 months of a 72 year sentence?

He shore looks pirtty. I think he’ll make a real good b!t@# for Bubba.
Thats not a society, thats just a messed up bunch of psycho’s that think they can do what they want without consequence. Its all too common, that respect we had years ago is in short supply in kids today. Oh no doubt parenting is partly to blame but i believe that some kids are just born bad and when they hook up in groups....well.
We let the right for people to breed far too easy, there really are some people that should be allowed.
We really are getting to a point of social cohesion just dissolving. Keep a gun handy, you are gonna need it.
“When the hell are we going to put these gangs in their places. I mean these cretins are no longer human, they no longer deserve to be treated as such. We are far far too soft.”
True, and the leftards intend only to make it worse and worse until we collapse and they are fully in charge of a communist tyranny.
Any private citizen who tries to alleviate the gang problem in the only effective way will be hunted energetically by law enforcement, while they leave the gangs free to prey on us.
Decent people are generally unwilling to go athwart the law, even when the law is wrong.
Fla. woman: Teens laughed as they raped, beat her
Police Officer Moore testified he found the woman "in a fetal position laying on the bed ... and her son was in a fetal position laying on a chair next to her."
After being doused with cleaning solutions, nail polish remover and vinegar, Williams said, the victims huddled together in the bathtub naked for several hours, too scared to move.
Then, in pain and bleeding, they walked a mile to the hospital.
Yes, they were. As I was making my point that the Haitians were qualitatively different than the American born AA's, I had to add the qualifier that some young Hatians do succumb to the "urban" mentality.
Remember everyone... Other cultures are all equal to ours! And no rascist posts!
“Robert Gershman, who represented Nathan Walker, asked the jurors to ignore morality, ignore the “hysteria” and ignore emotion...The immorality of it cannot sweep you away to a guilty verdict times 14.”
I know somebody must repreent criminals like these, but look at what our judicial system has come to: ignore the immorality of the crime.
Crack addict mother lives with ‘boyfriend’ aka sperm donor. What a surprise her FOUR kids could turn out to be criminals. /s
Hence, i could never be a lawyer, i could never represent scum like this, I’d wouldnt be able to resist ripping their heads off.
You are right, ClearCase.
If this is to be the makeup of Obummer's "army", it is going to make my job as a defender of the Constitution much easier... Instead of it being a job I have to do, it would be a job I "get to do." I would look forward to it every day. Just keep me in ammo and I would work all the overtime available.

BINGO
I could never be in law enforcement either. It would be too hard for me to keep from beating the crap out of the criminals!
“When the hell are we going to put these gangs in their places.”
When perverted liberal judges and politicians have their families attacked in a similar fashion. They don’t give a DAMN about the “little people.”
