Now we all know that minor's names are never published in criminal cases, but does the same apply to their ages ( apologies if  I missed the mention of it in this article  ). I mean is she 12, 15, 17 and 11 months, what??? I know the magic age of consent and adulthood is 18, but maybe the story wouldn't be quite so salacious if she turns out to be 17 and so many months. Some people are actually quite mature ( mentally and physically ) by that tender age, believe it or not.
