A 14-year-old girl from the Isle of Wight, charged with attempted murder after attacking her grandmother with 2 guitars, has appeared at Swindon Crown Court this week.
The girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, pleaded guilty to attempting to cause grievous bodily harm with intent – a charge accepted by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). As a result, the attempted murder charge has been withdrawn.
Previously, the court had heard that the teen had attempted to use 2 guitars as weapons during the attack in Shanklin on 19th February.
The girl has been remanded in a youth detention centre and will next appear at Swindon Crown Court for sentencing next month.






























































































What dragged that up, what have the Liberal minded ideology created in this country?…we are becoming more violent by the day…
Another self entitled little mare that has been through the lilly livered, hand wringing, do gooder, socialist, apologetic school system, where they are taught nothing of value.
First a Fender perhaps?
Nice I see what you did there
Pretty sick of hearing about the scum in this country. And to read this site, you’d think the Isle of Wight was full of them. I suppose it’s only them that’s newsworthy.
The Island is full of them, you don’t have to read the this site

Had one of her turns come on?
Evil little cow. Lock her up. She needs rehabilitation before being let out into society again.
How young the evil are bred now in a society of do gooders and hand ringers that stop proper punishment of feril brats ”because of their age” B/S. Where does it say that low life has to be a certain age before it becomes dangerous scum and a threat to others? If the are old enough to be dangerous then they are old enough to be punished.
Exactly! The do gooders are the ones to blame for most of the bad in our society. Sticking up constantly for people born with bad in them, so the bad people become even worse because they know they’ve got all the do gooders on their side. And classing them as “children” until they’re eighteen years of age is ridiculous.
