Las Vegas teen charged after alleged brutal group sexual assault on private school field trip caught on video

The teen who police said recorded the video, Vaughn Griffith, is charged in adult court. He is 15. A grand jury indicted Griffith, a golf champion who was elected class president, for possession of a visual presentation depicting sexual conduct of a child, according to court records.

“The camera angle then reverses back to show Vaughn Griffith and the boys start laughing,” the report states.

Then another video, described as more than two minutes long, “depicts the graphic and violent sexual assault,” police wrote.

The victim yelled as he is punched, several boys are heard laughing throughout the entirety of the video, and the victim is heard trying to stop the battery that is occurring, police explained.

While one boy urges the victim to fight back, Griffith told him that if he does, they will cut off his penis, police wrote.

through out the nation. You see what excessive wealth does to people? When you allow excessive wealth it destroys morals. Love of money is evil as the Good Book tells you so why do we culturally support evil?

Parents, especially fathers need to teach their sons at the earliest ages that fighting and bullying are wrong. This whole concept of "boys will be boys" is utter nonsense. Some of the most inspiring men I've known and met throughout my life wouldn't hurt any animal let alone another human.

We culturally support violence of men. Look at how we salivate over fights at hockey games and the brutality of football, or boxing matches.
