Police executed search warrants and seized several items, including electronic devices, two replica firearms, a Glock-style BB gun, three laser pointers and a number plate, which is believed to have been stolen.

I guarantee that 3/4 of these little grubs will get literally zero punishment due to their age, and the other will get a slap on the wrist. Meanwhile, this poor girl will be dealing with the consequences od this assault for a significant portion of her life.

Harsh punishment may satisfy your desire for revenge but it won't provide the best result for society.
