In a crime that has shocked America up to two dozen passers-by were said to have seen the crime happening and failed to report it as the girl was subjected to an ordeal lasting two-and-a-half hours.
Police Lieutenant Mark Gagan said a "mob mentality" had taken over. He said: "This was a barbaric act. I still cannot get my head around the fact that numerous people either watched, walked away or participated in her assault.
"These suspects are monsters. I don't understand how this many people capable of such atrocious behaviour could be in one place at one time.
Many of the students feel like the people who committed such an awful crime are still among them in class." Five suspects, aged from 16 to 21, have been arrested over the attack at Richmond High School, near San Francisco, over the weekend.
The crime was only discovered when a woman at a nearby party telephoned police to say that two of the suspects were bragging about their role in the attack, which was still going on.

Richmond, CA: Like Oakland, but without all the great culture.
There is something bad wrong with the world today...
“There is something bad wrong with the world today...”
Just look at television, objectively. Look at the movies, objectively. Listen to song lyrics, objectively. There are no moral absolutes anymore, just moral relativity. There isn’t a sense of ‘doing right’ because it is the right thing to do. Now it’s just ‘doing right’ to avoid prosecution.
I just realize this for the first time, but Richmond, CA is the H.S. where Samuel L. Jackson’s “Coach Carter” was based out of.
Richmond is probably the roughest or in the top 5 roughest towns in CA. It’s s like a mini-Detroit. It’s an urban wasteland toilet.
They should level that town and move all the residents across the bridge to Marin County. Let the limousine liberal lefties that overran Marin County decades ago find out what it’s like to live among these people.
Well, there's your problem!
I hope even the lizard would find this act by future Democrat voters to be disgusting and very criminal.
It was Hispanic gang members.
And they want to let in millions more, give them “free” healthcare and education and we get our taxes raised for our kindness.
The Democrats are traitors and should be arrested and imprisoned.
With Hispanic gang members in their cell.
Yes, 'great culture'.
Amish running amok?
What did you remember?
Salient question: Was the girl who was attacked of "another ethnos" than her attackers?
One of these days, their problem will be solved by the North Koreans. They'll throw a stout one at San Francisco and miss.
Perhaps if that is the case, they will need a bigger “boat”.
I rather doubt that America is "shockable."
Here's the sarc tag, because I'm sure you wouldn't have figured it out it I didn't post it.

Evil is rampant.
If you wait 'til he's swallowed an egg for breakfast, he's likely to be more agreeable & just might.
You just answered every single who, what, where, when and why question I had concerning this atrocity.
Doing the job the quisling mediots simply will not do.
Thanks.
