London lawyer says raped girl was “glad for the attention”

Well this is just lovely.

A teenage girl who claims she was gang raped by three 13-year-old schoolboys was overweight and would have been “glad of the attention�, a barrister told a jury.
The 16-year-old and her friend told a court the boys mugged them for their phones then raped them repeatedly in a park while filming the ordeal on a mobile.
But lawyer Sheilagh Davies, acting for one of the defendants, said the girls consented to sex “maybe to gain attention, maybe to gain affection�.

Davies also told the jury that the girl had “slimmed down a lotâ€? since the rape and that she “may well have been glad of the attention.â€? Excuse me while I go bang my head against the wall.
