hi there.. to go off the subject alot - my husband doesnt know if he heard right but, he was listening to the radio - in western australia in a small suburb, a man broke in to a twelve years old little girls sleep over and raped all the girls at the sleep over... did this happen? i cant find it on the news anywhere - could someone help me do a search to find out if this is true.

I had the radio on coming home from work and didnt hear that. All I heard was that there was a fatal accident on Tonkin Highway??
Will ask OH in a mo, he has radio on all day at work.

I do so hope he heard wrong

Just spoke to OH, he has radio on all day at work, and also on way home. He didnt hear anything at all.

I have just scoured all the news websites and I can't find anything. That kind of thing would be huge news so I am imagining he misheard.

see what i have to deal with? He might come home tonight telling me about the martians he spoke with - straight to the looney bin - can I trade him in for a newer, higher spec model?

thanks though - we are heading to western australia, so it was quite a shock to hear it. knew you guys would help me out. gotta love this britishexpats.com

The trial of the two girls who murdered their friend at a sleep over in WA is ongoing at the moment.

Perhaps that is what was reported and misheard?

Was reading about them earlier although it's not made the news over this side. I should think that's what he was thinking of. Somewhere called Coogee or something like that

Collie.

It is in the English newspapers today.....pretty unpleasant stuff.

I'm not sure what can be done with the girls. It doesn't seem that they are evil or even bad, just totally lacking in a basic way. Weird

They had all been using ICE......but this is clamed not to have been a factor.

They simply wanted to see what is was like to murder someone

Only from what I have read in the Times.

OK hadn't heard the ICE bit but was a bit stumped by the rest, and then they said it hadn't affected them WTF

One of them has been reported as being a complete nutcase and that it was only a matter of time before she did something like this.

Well I'm sure that's a relief to the dead girl's family I know there's a limit to what can be done before someone does something bad but for heaven's sake

Apparently she had strangled a couple of kittens as a 'trial run'
