16-year-old admits to amended charges of sexual assault, avoids further legal action; will attend a "Stop" program.
16-year-old Christchurch schoolboy avoided further legal action by admitting to not denying amended charges of sexual assault against four teenage girls. Originally facing charges including rape, sexual violation, and indecent exposure, the teen will attend a "Stop" program, providing assessment and intervention services for adolescents who have engaged in harmful sexual behavior. If successfully completed, the Crown will not seek transfer to the District Court.
