Sex crime on schoolershocks Grenadians

December 10, 2007

The Grenada National Organisation for Women (GNOW) has described as "horrifying", a case in which three young men have been charged in connection with a sexual offence involving a 13-year-old secondary schoolgirl.

The matter has attracted national attention, not just because crimes like these are rare or rarely reported here, but because the mother of one of the men, 20-year-old Craig Joseph, is the country's Social Development Minister Yoland Bain Horsford and his father is Speaker of the House of Representatives, Larry Joseph.
