According to fox news:

LAKELAND, Fla. — Eight teenagers have been arrested on charges alleging they beat another teen in an "animalistic attack" so they could make a videotape to post on YouTube.

Victoria Lindsay was attacked on March 30 by six teenage girls when she arrived at a friend's home, authorities said.

One of the girls struck the 16-year-old victim on the head several times and then slammed her head into a wall, knocking her unconscious, according to an arrest report.

"It's absolutely an animalistic attack," Sheriff Grady Judd said Tuesday on NBC's "Today." "They lured her into the home for express purpose of filming the attack and posting it on the Internet."The sheriff's office said that after the attack, three of the teens forced the victim into a vehicle and drove her to another location, where she was told she would be given a worse beating if she contacted police.

All eight suspects were arrested April 2 and charged with battery and false imprisonment. The three teens who took Lindsay to the second location are also charged with felony kidnapping. Lindsay was treated for a concussion, damage to her left eye and left ear, and numerous bruises, police said.

What is going on here? Has the world gone ,absolutely, mad? What are parents telling their kids these days? Is it too much medication? Thess kids ,today, have no concept of "ruin your life " , if you do that. No concept what so ever,these kids! I was talking to a guy, who is an expert witness for crime scenes. He told me a story of a 16 year old girl who told the police officer that the reason why she did not immediately informed them that she had witness a shooting was due to her belief that the young man would eventually get back up. When asked  why she would think that? she responded, "they do in the movies". Unbelievable! Something is becoming seriously wrong with American kids and it appears,at least to me, that everyone including parents, schools and our government are all looking the other way.

I personally hope these girls get the maximum punishment. If being famous means this much to young people now and days , lets start giving them what they want . Let's film them going to prison for 5  to 10 years and then place that on "you tube". How about that?

Talk about "turning a blind eye", did you see the "rape dance at a Memphis High School as the school administrators walk past the kids as they feign having sex http://youtube.com/watch?v=kTs1xw3uqok? Or the one where a teenager threatens an elderly woman on the MARTA Train in ATL http://youtube.com/watch?v=byOtxwl8iEI&feature=related.
and no one comes to the aid of the elderly woman? When I see children act this way, I KNOW IT IS THE PARENTS THAT ARE TO BLAME! Because the way you act starts with the parents, and too often outside influences make these behaviours worse! No if ands or buts!

presidentmom- we may not see "eye to eye" on everything political (LOL), but you are "spot on" about this issue. A very serious one at that! Just think, when you and I are ready to settle down "30 "or so years from now, will The next generation be as responsible and passionate (as we are)about politics and the world we live in? I don't know about you, but if I acted up that way , I could never go home. I would never embarrass my parents that way. Besides, I would rather spend the night in jail(never had to) then have to explain what I was doing to my parents. That has really changed today....

Ditto! L0L

Where many children are headed today, is so very scary to me. I am forty seven, and as a child, our neighbors could spank me, and then I'd get it when my parents got home. There was no such thing as ADD or ADHD, when I was coming up. There were parents who did not tolerate certain behaviours and parents who really need their children taken away, as they have no clue about raising children! My mind set has always been, Children only do what you let them do!
