A 16-year-old bully recorded humiliating two younger teenage girls on a viral video watched by millions has walked free from court.
The girl was sentenced to a 10-month referral order at Birmingham Youth Court today, following what a district judge called a “horrendous act of bullying”.
She had already admitted an assault and another charge of robbery, apologising for the incident in which she forced two younger girls to the floor in the Northfield area of the city, on July 11.
A video of the attack filmed by one of her friends was posted to social media and has since been viewed 11 million times, the court heard.
District Judge David Robinson, sentencing, said he did not believe the girl’s story she was too drunk to remember the assault.
