Jesus Christ, another horror story involving high school kids.
Glad that LE got to the suspects quickly on this one and have phone video of the assault as evidence.
A 16-year-old's visit to a Hollywood, Florida home turned into a nightmare when a pack of five teens (3 boys and 2 girls) descended upon her, dragged her by the hair, kicked and punched her, then held her down while she was raped in a videotaped assault, police say.
The three boys and two girls, ages 15 to 19, have been charged with felony sexual battery and false imprisonment.
The rape suspect, Jayvon Woolfork, 19, stood next to one of his alleged accomplices, Lanel Singleton, 18, in tan jailhouse scrubs, their wrists cuffed behind their backs, as a judge ordered them jailed without bond Monday morning. They're both adults and both have previous records for burglary and assault.

Accused rapists, Jayvon Woolfork and Lanel Singleton
The three accused minors, also from South Broward High -- Patricia Montes, 15, of Hollywood; Erica Avery, 16, of Coconut Creek; and Dwight Henry, 17, of North Miami Beach -- will be held in juvenile detention for 21 days while state prosecutors decide whether they will be charged as adults.
When the girls, Montes and Avery, were picked up by police, they admitted to the beating but denied stripping the accuser of her clothes. Montes' cellphone, however, contained several video clips of the attack, including the forcible removal of the girl's clothing.
According to police reports, the violent encounter occurred at about 7:30 p.m. Friday at Woolfork's home in the 1600 block of McKinley Street. Police say Montes asked the girl to Woolfork's home, where they listened to music and watched TV until Woolfork, Singleton, Henry and Avery joined them from another part of the home and demanded that the girl have sex with "Jay" or face a beating.
When she refused, they punched her, kicked her and dragged her by the hair into the backyard, where they pushed her down stairs and smashed her head on the concrete.
When they dragged her back inside, Henry allegedly blocked the front door and said: "If you leave, I am going to f--- you up!" She was next dragged into a bedroom, where the teens stripped off her clothes and held her down while Woolfork raped her.
The minor victim (not being named) took off to her grandmother's house nearby and grandma called police Saturday morning.
When police met with the girl at 7:18 a.m. Saturday, she was covered in bruises, had broken bones in her face, had "extreme swelling" of both eyes, blood coming from her left ear and was in and out of consciousness. She was taken to an emergency room. She was unable to name or describe her attackers, but she identified Woolfork out of a photo lineup.
Hollywood Police Chief Frank Fernandez said Monday that his concern is that this isn’t the first time that this group victimized someone.
“This type of violence does not happen overnight,” he said. “Repeat victimization is very possible in this case.” Fernandez said detectives are looking into everything – including whether there are more victims.
