(CNN) -- An alleged sexual assault of a Texas girl involving nearly 20 people was recorded on cell phones, and a video of the alleged incident was circulating among students in her school district
As of Monday, 13 adults and five juveniles had been arrested as part of the investigation, authorities said. A defense attorney for one of the suspects told CNN affiliate KPRC that the number of suspects could increase.
"I don't know the exact number of people involved," James Evans said. "I've heard as many as 28 or more."
The case has sharply divided the community, according to CNN affiliate KHOU, which reported the girl was 11 years old.
Darrel Broussard, assistant police chief for the Cleveland, Texas, Police Department, said Monday that the investigation into the incident "is continuous,"...
Cleveland is about 50 miles northeast of Houston.
The 18 individuals charged thus far are between 14 and 27 years old, he said. Those who are adults were indicted last month on a charge of aggravated sexual assault of a child.
The girl told a forensic interviewer from a child advocacy center that one suspect called her "and asked if she wanted to ride around" on that day, the affidavit said. Three of the suspects picked her up and took her to one residence where a fourth suspect lived. The fourth suspect told her to take her clothes off, she said, adding that "he would have some girls 'beat her up' or she would not be taken back to her residence if she did not comply." the affidavit said.
"Victim stated that digital still images and digital video images of the sex acts were recorded by one or more individuals using cellular telephones," according to the affidavit.

That’s diversity giving every one hope and change.
*nods*
They need to ship some of Uday Hussein’s human shredders to Texas an put them to good use on these barbarians.
The Obama-Holder “people” be doin dis.
I am assuming the girl was also black. But let’s be honest, is there any real chance the article would admit the girl was white if that was the case? I don’t think so. The racial “overtones” would be too “upsetting” for people of color and might “spark racial tensions” among supposedlt racist white folks, blah, blah, blah.
Again, I assume the girl was also black.
Beam me up Scottie, I want the heck out of here.
Ain’t gonna happen.
Now how did I know that the rapists were going to be members of an “ethnic community?”
Thing is, they started the fire.
Texas should kill all of those ******* bastards!
Texans would have handled it the right way, which they won't do now.
We have become Africa.
I would drive to each and every single one of these bastards homes and torture them for an hour...then finish them off with a blow torch.
>American cities are full of these guys.Feral humans,with dead souls.
Thing is Cleveland, Texas is hardly a city. 7600 folks, according to Wikipedia.
Figured in a place like Houston, New Orleans, or Miami this would be an everyday event but Cleveland, Texas?
It’s a good thing that Texas has the death penalty. They should publically execute every one of these...
...well I can’t really find the right word. Animals and barbarians gives them too much credit.
Grey Whiskers, as regards your comment, “I wonder when the same angels tasked with the destruction of the cities on the plain are going to show up...”, all I can think is that those angels are already too late.
Quix, let me ask, for I am not an expert...Perhaps the Rapture isn’t quite as biblically literal as so many believe it to be. Maybe the Lord has all along been taking the unborn babies home, and left the rest of us behind, and we are already in the times of Tribulation. Just look around.
I read it on two local blogs associated with the local CNN affiliate.
I suppose you can assume "Maria" is Black, but whatever. Sorry it makes people feel uncomfortable.
The community is “divided” because of a petition to recall 3 city council members (all are black).
From what I understand, the girl that was raped is hispanic. She may not be totally blameless in all this, but certainly didn’t deserve to be gang raped.
If the rapists had blond hair and blue eyes, it would be at the top of the story. Since it wasn’t, we all knew they were black or Mexican... The MSM needs to deal with race honestly - it’s the only way there will ever be progress.
