Teen Girls Beat Disabled Man to Death Out of Boredom, Court Hears

Five girls aged 12 to 15 attacked 64-year-old Reggie Brown in Washington, D.C., with one testifying the motive was boredom.

Reggie Brown, a 64-year-old disabled man, was beaten to death by a group of five teenage girls in Washington, D.C., on October 17, 2023.
The attack was captured on video, showing the girls chasing Brown, pulling him down from a fence, and assaulting him with his own belt.
A 15-year-old girl, who pleaded guilty to a lesser charge, testified that the group decided to attack Brown because they were 'bored.'
The victim was already being attacked by an unidentified man when the girls joined in, according to testimonies presented in court.
Two of the girls face first-degree murder charges, with potential sentences of detention until they turn 21 if convicted.
