Hopefully more and more of these vindictive people will get caught doing this abominable attack.

[b]Teen held over video phone attack [/b]

A teenager was arrested following an attack on a 16-year-old girl which was filmed on a mobile phone, police said.

Becky Smith was beaten unconscious on May 9 near her home in Blackley, Manchester.

The attackers filmed the assault on a mobile video phone - a craze known as Happy Slapping.

A 16-year-old girl, from Blackley, was arrested on suspicion of assault.

Becky was ambushed by a gang of teenagers at the junction of Fortrose Avenue and Sandyhill Road in Blackley as she walked home from a friend's house.

She suffered serious head injuries and temporary paralysis and spent two days at North Manchester General Hospital before going home.

In that time, the video recording of the attack was circulated around her school, Plant Hill High in Blackley.

Her 13-year-old brother Craig was shown the film by a fellow pupil.

I love it when these idiots help to convict themselves when they keep a record of there crimes.

It really is telling how stupid they are.

It's really disgusting how these people show so little regard for their fellow human being. How would they feel if someone did that to a member of their gang, or if it happened back to them? What a horrible trauma for that poor girl, and shame on all the kids who saw the video and said nothing. They need to be treated like the dangerous criminals that they are.

It hasn't changed either. There have been nasty teenage vermin like this as long as I can remember.
When I was in middle school (13) I remember some girl bullies who were picking on a boy, and slammed his finger in the door so hard, he lost part of his finger. I heard about this from someone else. I don't know if they were expelled or had juvenile criminal records or what. No wonder I was a nervous wreck going to school. There were boys who bullied as well, and you really had to look over your shoulder.

There needs to be some really tough penalties for kids like this. Maybe they need to be sent to juvenile detention, where it's a tough work camp and they have to do school work from there as well.

I think it's because their parents don't teach them from home that they grow up acting like mongrel dogs.

That's what someone on another forum did when they beat up his daughter. The police said 'We'll catch whoever did this', he 'don't worry, I'll find them'. He's found one so far...

Gotta applaud his efforts but sadly he will be the one to end up in jail.

The sad thing is that a "craze" like this would simply not spread, and would quickly die a death, if it weren't for the outraged media getting hold of it, and cranking up the chattering classes so it becomes headline news for weeks. Ignore it and it'd go away as quickly as that other silly game - see I can't even remember what it was called! You know, when everyone got a call on their mobile to go and stand in someone's front room at a set time, or some other brainless activity.

Her punishment should be someone bigger than her kicking the snot out of her in a humiliating fashion, whilst broadcast live on national TV so everyone can see what a pathetic snivelling coward she is.

Like mentioned above, great to see the brainless idiots hanging themselves...

I will be very interested to see her punishment-100 hours community service is my bet.

When it should be a minimum of 3 years in prison.

One of these days one of these Happy Slappers is going to get stabbed as kids will start arming themselves. Happened at my school, kid kept getting bullied so brought in a knife and stabbed the kid that was bullying him

Brilliant.

I was getting bullied when I first got to senior school. Weird experience for me as I had always been in the "In" crowd and it hadn't happened to me before. I was short for my age though.. (Started smoking and I shot up)

So, got my older brother's mate to meet me after school who was the main hard geezer type from the local estate.. You know the estates you don't go into when dark?

He had a quiet word in his shell like and then all of a sudden I wasn't getting bullied...

So I armed myself. With a big geezer.

It's wrong but nice to read about victims and families getting revenge. Snag is if the victim retaliates, the happy slappers become happy stabbers, and eventually people end up walking around with these:

















Ok bit of an exaggeration

In the news report I read earlier - the Girl they "arrested" walked in to the police station and gave herself up.

(she gains a small measure of respect for that) but the attack itself was disgusting

No she doesn't.

She knew she was done for so chose this method to make people think she did the right thing...

Her miniscule brain would have needed help to think this up. Someone would have said - You should go give yourself up, they'll look on you in a better light.

I hope she gets terminal syphalis. Fruckin' bitch bully.
