The lawyer for one of the teenage suspects accused of raping a 18-year-old girl at Osborn Playground in Brooklyn has obtained smartphone video that shows the girl smiling and laughing during the alleged rape.
Attorney Kenneth Montgomery, who is representing Denzel Murray, 14, said the video footage — recorded by his client, shows the girl smiling and laughing while laying on the ground partially clothed.
“The demeanor of the victim matters, and they know it,” Montgomery said. “The grand jury should have an opportunity to view that video.”
The woman told police she was drinking beer with her 39-year-old father near the handball court at 9 p.m. on Thursday when 5 teenagers approached them and ordered her father to run.
But two of the suspects later told police they interrupted the girl and her father engaging in a sexual act in the park.
The suspects say the father, who was drunk, staggered away and the girl consented to sex.
When the father returned and threw a bottle at the suspects, one of them pulled a gun and the father ran off.
The father flagged down 2 patrol officers who returned with him to the park 15 minutes later. But the suspects were gone and the victim was stumbling around the park drunk.
Police found the girl’s clothing scattered around the handball court. She was treated for scratches and abrasions at Kings County Hospital.
All 5 teen suspects are in custody and will be tried as adults if the charges stick.
Denzel Murray and three of the 5 suspects appeared in court Tuesday. Attorneys for Shaquell Cooper and Ethan Phillip, both 15, and Onandi Brown, 17, denied the rape allegations.
A fifth suspect, Travis Beckford, 17, was pulled out of class at Tilden High School at 11 a.m. on Tuesday. He was questioned by police then arrested and charged with rape, sex abuse and a criminal sex act.
Montgomery called the arrests “politically motivated.” He said none of the teenagers were identified by witnesses.
“They never alleged that my client had sexual contact. I think this is as weak as it gets,” he said in court.
A judge ordered the 14 and 15-year-olds held on $10,000 bail. The other 15-year-old is being held on $50,000 bail, and one of the 17-year-olds is held on $25,000 bail.
this story is Just >>>>>>>>>yawns****
I’m sorry, but this account makes much more sense then the account the father has given! As the old folks say, something in the milk ain’t clean!
I’m over this story…too many conflicting tales, smh…
This story is horrible the more I hear.
This story gets crazier and crazier.
This story gets worse and worse. ANd I hope to God that is not really her on video smiling and shyt. Now I am really starting to believe she was at the park with her….”father” having sex, and the teens, who should of been in the damn house anyway, came across them, and asked to get down as well. smdh. But I am hoping I am really wrong.
They gonna find dad’s DNA in the semen mix too. Watch
this story is really getting out of hand….one day its this the next its that….I just can not!
Yeah, that’s what I am thinking. ugh.
This story…
While her doing what she did with her father is gross, it doesn’t mean they had a right to “rape” her but it’s looking like(video evidence) that she consented so this whole thing is sad and disgusting. Baby girl needs help asap she’s not gonna make it.
judge ordered the 14 and 15-year-olds held on $10,000 bail. The other 15-year-old is being held on $50,000 bail, and one of the 17-year-olds is held on $25,000 bail.
^^^^^
Parents should call Powerball Marie
That’s my thing. IF they did in fact rape her, then they were dead wrong and need to be locked up. If not….but I am still mad at all the parents as well.
She can only bail out her cheating baby daddy Twan.
I still want to know how this 14 and 15 year olds was allowed to walk around at night like this. WHERE WERE THE PARENTS??? I want to know who was home.
But the suspects were gone and the victim was stumbling around the park drunk.
===============================================
If she was this drunk…to the point to where she was stumbling around the park, then how was she in her right mind, and able to consent to sex with anyone…
Or was the dad that drunk and she was on her way? This story is so jacked up, I don’t know who to believe.
One of them was 14 why the hell was he not in the house? They don’t have curfews in NY?
Why was the dad and the daughter in the park at night in the cold drinking beer instead of drinking in the comfort of their warm home? Is he her real dad or step dad? The boys story seems more credible.
That right there is going to be the prosecution’s stance.
I do not believe them. I just don’t. Smiling and laughing after rape isn’t normal but you can’t always trust someone’s demeanor. Some people have weird affects. Either way, they are NEVER going to get to the bottom of this.
There are so many gaps in this story. Hopefully the truth will come out in its entirety. If these young men really violated and raped this young lady I hope they are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. However what worries me is the fact they said that the young girl and her father was involved in a sexual act. Nothing surprises me now days, but I pray that this is not the case. Sad story all the way around.
That don’t mean nothing the boy knowingly took advantage of her and recorded it. He knew she was outta her mind and drunk! Nasty a** kid! And yes it is still rape regardless if she was smiling and laughing…. she was drunk and not present mentally and does not give the green light to do what you want! I really want to run this kid and his lawyer over with a tractor trailer.
Yeah and that might open up another can of worms. Something just isn’t right about this story.
This story is a sizzlin burnt mess full of ??and??and??ish…Just shameful. We will NEVER know the truth. And where is this young lady’s mother?
Y’all know this will be on next season’s Law & Order: SVU, right? This is a made to order episode for them. #IHeartOlivia
#BringBackStabler
Guess I picked THE wrong post to peek in on…
A big ass mess! The dad should have never been in a damn park drinking with his daughter. Who does that? The fact that he was sloppy drunk and could not protect his daughter is a damn shame!
KHAKI
Interesting factoid; Kenneth Montgomery was also Bobby Shmurda’s lawyer. He also represented the parents of Akai Gurkey, the young man shot in a stairwell by the NYPD rookie.
Yes!!!
If any of my SORORS are in here, HAPPY FOUNDER’S DAY!!!! #J13 #103 #OO-OOP
Quick, fast and in a hurry
I questioned it yesterday, and now I really don’t believe the “father” is her biological father. Either she’s a runaway or dude may possibly be her bf or pimp. Ion know. I’ll feel bad if I’m wrong, but this whole story makes no damn sense.
BBL. Need to make sure Baby Freebush hasn’t eaten a half box of cereal again while watching cartoons. Who does that besides kids who watched Superfriends, Scooby Doo, and All My Children with their Nana?
He was Bobby Shmurda’s attorney. Alex Spiro represents him now. While I do believe there was political pressure to make arrests as soon as possible, I have my reservations about Ken Montgomery.
HEY HEY HEY!!!!!
He gone Milani and he is not coming back.
I would like to know more about the father and daughter relationship. I really hope they’re not lying on those kids to cover up their mess. It just doesn’t seem right for a father to be getting drunk in a cold park at night instead of their warm home.
Exactly!!! And then for the father to leave her to fend for herself against 5 boys. Nah son.
Never ever?
Her fast assssss was having s e x with her father in the damn park! Yuck. Those boys didn’t rape her.. I knew this story was fishy from jump.
Is this girl really even his daughter?
The mix, like it’s a cocktail.
Sandra do u know this young lady personally?? Its like ur just out to discredit her and make her the criminal… At the end of the day 5 young black men took it up on themselves to rape a young woman… I live in Bklyn with a daughter and we can’t have this
Engine engine #9.
Uh… Call! Uh… Call!
OK. “Technically”, if she is drunk, she is not able to consent.
This is why Bill Cosby is in such a pickle. The may be able to convict them. On what exact charge, “kayne shrug”.
Lots of father’s have sex with their biological children. It happens all the time. More than people know,
Happy Founders Day, Greek Soror!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ-PHI!
And why is she drinking with her “dad” in the park at night?
That’s probably why she was fighting and didn’t want to go to the hospital. This is sickening, If they find out the chick is lying, they need to charge her with Filing a false police report. Lying about a felony offence can be a felony.
Just ew all around with the mess.
If that is the case they all need to be locked the he’ll up..No father,mother,brother,cousin,uncle,etc need to be having sex with any family members.
Sadly I believe that’s what happened too. This is all so disgusting, but I’ve heard story after story FROM GUYS about girls who allow them to run trains (take turns on her). We don’t know the truth, but the boys’ story sounds more reasonable. …unfortunately.
From victim to tramp in 0.2 seconds. ?
This is true.
Is her “father” her biological dad? WTH
Exactly! This whole thing is just crazy.
how? We don’t know what really happened, so she is still a victim…shoot either way, she is a victim.
Sick! Nasty mofos!
All of this! Every account states she was drunk that’s her case right there.
Daddy aka pimp. You talk about the fast girl but what do you have to say about the sick man that she was with.
Sheesh, where do I begin… We don’t even know if that’s her real dad.. But, that man should be hung by his genitals..
Hey Sandra. I don’t know how true this is but I was somewhere else and a person said that the dad is really her pimp
If she was incapable of consenting because her mental capacity was diminished due to her state of intoxication then they are still guilty of rape. The defense attorney should know this – it’s NY state law. Unless he has proof that she was not drunk at the time, those boys will most likely be indicted. At least two of the boys have admitted to engaging in sexual intercourse with her, the only issue left is whether or not she consented and IF she had the capacity to consent. Depending on the victim’s testimony about her condition, what the responding officers and EMT technicians say about her condition at the time – I don’t see these boys overcoming that hurdle.
Co-sign! No winners in this sad tale
All the while Ethan Couch gets probation for killing four people and maming others . This story has way too may holes in it.
Says who? She was having sex with her father and that’s a huge problem. Smiling and laughing while getting raped? I don’t think so.
0_o
When this story first broke, someone on YouTube claimed this wasn’t a rape. The poster even said it was consensual and implied the father was somehow guilty. At the time, I defended the victim and accused the naysayer of victim-blaming.
In light of these updates, I’m starting to believe that person knew what they were talking about.
It’s no secret there are some young women with no morals or shame, and they will do anything, with anyone.
Yesterday, someone showed me a video of a young woman having sex with a man on the ground, while a group of approximately 20 people, stood around and watched.
but if she’s drunk, it’s not consent. they might of dug their own graves (and her father’s).
dam!!
This story is like a Lifetime movie with a million plot twists
Was she really having sex with her dad?? ButWtf was she doing DRINKING WITH HER DAD…ON A MF SCHOOL NIGHT??WTH IS THE MAMA?? she got easily let them all hit? Tuh…..
I agree.
It sounded so nasty
What’s in the dark comes to light. The real person that gets time won’t be the teenagers…SmH
I read somewhere that her and the Father just recently reconnected and that she grew up in Foster care because he abandoned her when she was a baby…
a dam mini series….it needs more that 2 hrs
He can un retire don’t take my hope ?
I could care less abt what she was doing with her father …I don’t know either of them…the fact is she was raped by 5 men in a park… Something I hope u or anybody u know never has to go through..this is why a lot of people don’t report rape because often they become the one shamed and criminalize
What the hell is this. The story gets crazier. Send everyone to jail for sheer stupidity.
This is just nasty. I’m done with this story.
Meanwhile much serious cases are not taken seriously by the D A in NY where the criminal gets to walk free and no bail money to give
Just because the boys say thats what happened, doesn’t make it true. Its sad people are so quick to dismiss women who say they were raped.

Well this is a twist.
Happy Founders Day Soror! #J13
She was laughing at those little “richards” she was heard saying…”is that all you got for a gal?” I’ve seen bigger in a gherkin jar. LOL
No. Lots of fathers do not have sex with their biological children.
No, it doesnt happen all the time.
I dont know what you may have seen in your household or your close friends while growing up, but that is fairly rare behavior.
“Lots” of fathers do not do this.
The father and daughter couldn’t id them in a lineup.
Is there a mother somewhere?
The boys claim it was consensual.
I mean of course they would they aren’t going to admit to raping someone.
Uhh ruh….
Shit my bail was 100 grand once and all I did is violate Probation
********
They raped that girl, their explanation is flawed. I would smiling and pretending to like it too, if that meant they won’t kill me afterwards.
18 year old drinking beer with 39 year old ‘dad’ in a public outdoor space? Video showing her smiling and laughing during (not after) the alledged rape? Doesn’t excuse the boys actions for what they did. Something tells me this young lady has been thru a lot in her short life time. Hopefully she gets the help she really needs.

If this version of the story is true then she may have been getting molested by her father since she was a little girl. If she was intoxicated then she couldn’t consent to sex therefore these boys and her father are guilty of rape. Her father and these boys are animals. She is a victim. Do black lives matter now.

I must have hit a nerve. I stand behind my comment.
If this is true, this wh0re screaming rape when she was down for a gang bang, makes other real victims look bad. Lock all they asses up.
Black women are really loose sexually relative to other women. It would not surprise me if she willingly slept with 6 men in a park.
This has been bothering me for some time. My mom would have died before leaving me to a group of thugs. They definitely would have caught a murder charge because they would had to shoot her. I just can’t wrap my head around The thought of a “dad” running for help and leaving his child to be raped. There’s more to the story.
