We want the best for our kids. For one Maryland mother, the unthinkable occurred.
The mother said she checked on the kids after leaving them unattended for a few minutes to put her 2-year-old to sleep. She said she noticed the children were “unusually quiet,” which we all know means that kids are up to no good. Never in a million years did she expect to walk in and see her son hurting another person.
The mother was horrified when she walked into her son’s bedroom and caught him sexually assaulting his 8-year-old cousin. The mother said she saw her son’s pants down at his ankles and the girl’s skirt raised in the air.
On the love seat next to them was a pair of scissors.
When interviewed the 8-year-old said that a 14-year-old boy in Maryland, Solomon Pule was going to cut her if she made noise, she also stated that he put his ‘thing’ in her.
The mother called the Baltimore City Police, and they arrested Pule for rape who is being held at the Baltimore City Detention Center.
When he was questioned, Pule admitted to raping his cousin. Pule now faces both first and second-degree rape charges and is being tried as an adult.
All this means that the 14-year-old boy could now spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Maryland has a law that says anyone between the ages of 14 and 18 can be tried as an adult if the crime they commit would be punished by life in prison or death.
If convicted, Pule will do his time in an adult prison.
