A community in Cleveland, Ohio, is reeling from an act of such depraved brutality that it defies comprehension, a horrifying incident that serves as a stark symbol of the violent decay festering in American cities under failed liberal policies. In a sickening attack that reads like a scene from a nightmare, two children—a 9-year-old boy and a 10-year-old girl—have been charged with a litany of felonies for allegedly raping, scalping, and attempting to murder a defenseless 5-year-old girl. This is not an isolated tragedy but a direct consequence of a culture that has abandoned law, order, and moral clarity, a culture that President Donald J. Trump tirelessly fought to restore during his term in office.
The New York Times reported that the two young assailants face charges including attempted murder, four counts of rape, two counts of felonious assault, strangulation, and kidnapping. The incident occurred last month in a wooded field, a setting that should be a place of childhood play, not unspeakable violence. The victim’s mother, Antavia Kennibrew, had entrusted her daughter’s safety to a family member’s home in Cleveland, a city long plagued by the soft-on-crime agendas championed by Democratic leadership. Her trust was brutally betrayed when her 5-year-old walked out the front door and was set upon by a group of children.
The details of this case, as revealed by the heartbroken mother, are so graphically disturbing that they paint a picture of pure evil. Kennibrew arrived to find Emergency Medical Services tending to her young daughter, who was unresponsive at the time. The scene that greeted her was every parent’s worst fear realized. “What I saw was unbelievable,” the girl’s mom explained to Cleveland 19. “My daughter was not my daughter. Her hair was scalped from her head. She had bruises and blood all over her body.” The visual of a 5-year-old child, scalped and battered in a field, is an indelible stain on the conscience of a nation that has allowed its foundational values to erode.
The mother’s harrowing account continues, detailing the extent of the physical and psychological trauma inflicted upon her innocent child. “Her eyes were filled with blood,” she continued. “Her lips and mouth were filled with blood. Her nails had debris and dirt stuck in it.” This level of violence, perpetrated by children barely older than the victim, points to a deep sickness within our society—a sickness fueled by a media and political class that often glorifies chaos and undermines the very institutions of family and justice that keep civilization intact.
The aftermath of this horror continues to unfold, with the young victim facing a long and uncertain road to recovery. Her mother revealed the profound psychological scars the attack has left, stating, “She is mentally not OK,” and that the little girl is now having “behavioral problems” because of the attack. The mother’s own anguish is palpable and serves as a cri de coeur for justice and change. “Me not getting justice for my daughter makes me feel like I failed her,” she said. “I cannot sleep. I can barely eat. I keep repeatedly seeing images of my baby in that field.” Her plea to the public is a damning indictment of a system that has failed to protect its most vulnerable: “She is only five, and these horrific things has happened to her. Please help, please look at this as if it was your own kid. This is not gossip. This is not a funny matter. This is not nothing to not take serious.”

We have a SERIOUS problem in American cities that needs to be fixed at all costs.
This has become the "new normal" in many cities across America but half of the country… pic.twitter.com/FdRGmwi5pf

This atrocity in Cleveland is a direct result of the lawlessness and moral decay that fester in cities governed by progressive policies that defund the police, dismantle accountability, and destroy the nuclear family. It is a powerful and tragic reminder of why the strong, law-and-order leadership of President Donald Trump is so desperately needed. His administration unequivocally supported the brave men and women in law enforcement and championed the rule of law, understanding that true compassion for victims and the preservation of a safe society require strength, not the coddling of criminals and the chaos that follows.
