/// Six schoolgirls subjected to 'horrific' sexual abuse and gang rape were accused by a defence lawyer of coming forward because 'it's better to be a victim than a ***'. ///

/// He said: 'It's better to be a victim than a ***. Once you are a victim who has been groomed you no longer have to take any responsibility for anything that you did.' ///

/// The Cambridge-educated QC, who specialises in gang related cases, said the schoolgirls could have been 'brainwashed by social workers', ///

/// Clare Dowse, also for the defence, suggested that the children, from troubled backgrounds in Banbury, Oxfordshire, 'might be enjoying all the attention from police and social services'. ///

We all know that it is the defences job to defend the actions of their clients but this is going too far, how could they?

The comments certainly would not and did not endear the jury in terms of credibility. Astonishing.
