Four boys have been accused of gang raping a 14-year-old girl in her home multiple times in June and attempting to rape a 12-year-old in the home.

The 14-year-old testified today via closed circuit television that the four boys – three 13-year-olds and one 12-year-old – entered her Ramapo, New York, home and repeatedly raped her over several days.

The 14-year-old girl said that the boys knew of a hidden key outside her home and three of them – two 13-year-olds and one 12-year-old – entered her room on the morning of June 12 and took turns raping her, only stopping to go to school to take a Regents’ exam that they told her they didn’t want to miss.

She said that in spite of her protests, the boys held her down and stripped off her clothing.

She testified that later that afternoon, the three boys returned to her home with another 13-year-old boy and they took turns raping her in the bathroom while they held her by the wrists and she tried to fight them off. She said that she had been scared they would come back and had hidden in her parents’ bedroom behind the headboard of the bed, but they found her and pulled her inside the bathroom where they took turns holding her and raping her anally and one of the boys also raped her vaginally.

She told the prosecutor that she felt “really grossed out” after the boys left and took a shower.

The 14-year-old testified that on June 13 the boys returned again while she was in her bedroom on a video chat with a friend. Her bedroom door was locked, but one of the boys used a kitchen knife to open it and entered the room along with the other boys. He began trying to touch and undress her. After arguing with her they then turned their attack on the 12-year-old in the home and began undressing her.

The younger girl kicked and fought the boys, and they eventually fled when the 14-year-old’s father called and said he was on his way home from work.

“I was yelling and screaming to leave me alone,” the 14-year-old testified and told the prosecutor she felt “pain” at being penetrated multiple times in her anus.

The 12-year-old boy testified in court that he “swore on everything he loved” that he did not rape the 14-year-old girl and that she consented.

He admitted that the boys were not invited to the house, but that they knew where the spare key was kept and went to the home looking for the 14-year-old girl on June 12.

“We had sexual contact with her the day before (June 11) and wanted to do it again,” the boy testified.

The girls did not tell their parents about the alleged attacks until a few days after they occurred.

The defense attorneys are questioning why the girls made comments about the boys on Facebook after the alleged attacks.

The four boys have been charged with felony first-degree rape and sexual abuse offenses.

Update: All boys were found guilty, Daily News reports. (Thanks, Joe!) The judge said that she believed the girls’ testimonies, adding that one boy’s testimony, which claimed the sex was consensual, was not reliable.
