Sick society: Mexican teenagers tortured boy to death during 'kidnap game'
According to the Chihuahua state prosecutors' office, the adolescents admitted to the killing.
The boy, Christopher Raymundo Marquez, was invited by a group of adolescents that were his neighbors and friends to play and collect firewood in a wasteland not far from his home in Chihuahua on Thursday, says a statement from the prosecutor's office.
Once they reached a stream in the wasteland, the children told Christopher they were going to feign a kidnapping. They then turned on him, tied his hands and feet together and beat him with a spiked stick. They followed this by stoning Christopher and finally choked him to death.
The eldest of the teenagers was only 15. Among the others were another 15-year-old boy, two 13-year-old girls and a boy aged 11.
The youngsters decided to bury the body in order to conceal their crime. They covered the hand-dug grave with weeds and a dead animal so as
The body was found buried face-down in a shallow grave in the northern Mexican city of Chihuahua early on Saturday afternoon - two days after he went missing.
According to Christopher's mother, Tania, her son's alleged killers together with their families took part in the search, as quoted by the Mexican Tiempo News.
However, the body was only found after the mother of one of the 15-year-old boys called the police and told them she had discovered her son had participated in the murder.
State Prosecutor Sergio Almaraz said: "While they were playing, one of the 15-year-olds suggested to the others that they should kill Christopher. It wasn't planned. It was a condition of the game they played."
Two 15-year-old boys now face criminal charges. However, the three younger children can't be tried as they are under the age of criminal responsibility in Mexico (set at 14). a spokesman for the local prosecution service said, commenting on the authorities' decision.
All five children will undergo psychological evaluation," the spokesman added.
The mother of the murdered boy is demanding justice: she said on Sunday, as quoted by the Proceso news website.
Comment: Although the origins of this despicable 'game' have yet to be determined, studies have shown that violent programs and video games increase aggressiveness and hinder the development of empathy in children. The simple reason is that such programming is profitable, and sociopaths running corporations have no concern with the developmental consequences on young minds.
It is horribly sick to realize that young minds are being warped for corporate profitability. However this becomes understandable when you consider the effects on society when psychopathic individuals finally gain control. At that point they are able to spread their immoral precepts throughout society to the point where people begin to accept these values as normal. This describes what Andrew Lobaczewski called the process of ponerization in his book Political Ponerology: A Science on The Nature of Evil adjusted for Political Purposes :
They only begin to lose their grip on society when sufficient numbers of people educate themselves and are then able to inoculate themselves against further deterioration, while taking positive steps to reorganize society and forge new societal links.The actions of [pathocracy] affect an entire society, starting with the leaders and infiltrating every town, business, and institution. The pathological social structure gradually covers the entire country creating a "new class" within that nation. This privileged class [of pathocrats] feels permanently threatened by the "others", i.e. by the majority of normal people. Neither do the pathocrats entertain any illusions about their personal fate should there be a return to the system of normal man.
