The teenager was 15 when she was raped in an underpass by the River Avon in Fordingbridge, Hampshire. She had travelled to meet one of the boys for the first time in November 2024 after he had begun a "relationship" with her on social media platform Snapchat. The two defendants, who are now 15, were also convicted of attacking a second victim, who was raped in a field in January 2025. Another boy, now 14, was also convicted for his involvement in the second attack.

The boys filmed the rapes on their phones and later shared some of the footage online. At the sentencing hearing at Southampton Crown Court, the judge stressed the "seriousness" of the crimes and said the filming of the assaults made them even "more serious". After making the comments about their age, he praised the boys for how they had behaved during the trial.
